Filmotomy Podcast

What an insightful chat Robin Write had with filmmaker Kate Novack as she discussed the inspiration behind and the technical aspects of her short documentary film Hysterical Girl.

Robin Write had the pleasure of reconnecting with filmmaker Meghann Artes this time talking about her new short film Oh Baby! which is part of the Competition Selection for the 6th Femme Filmmakers Festival.

There are not many words to introduce the latest podcast from Filmotomy. On 22nd November 2020 we all sadly lost Jonathan Holmes. There were so many ways we wanted to immortalise this genuine good guy, in the end Doug Jamieson and Robin Write had a conversation about him, looking back at the impact he had on so many different groups of people. Included here are soundbites from just a few of his many podcast appearances, and scroll down below to links to many others as well as some of his great writing for the site. R.I.P. Jonathan Holmes (Mister Brown) - you are sadly missed.

Have a listen and please do leave us a comment or two. You can subscribe to the show in the usual way - SoundCloud, iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify, Podbean.

Welcome back after three months away. With just one away from the big 100, and with days remaining of Pride Month 2020, the Filmotomy Podcast talks LGBT cinema. Robin Write is joined by the wisdom of his wing-man Doug and newcomer to the show Sarah as they discuss Filmotomy's top 50 LGBT films results as well as voicing support of their own personal favourites. There are a few gripes thrown in too. As always you can subscribe to the show via SoundCloud, iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify and Podbean.

As the 4th Femme FIlmmakers Festival kicks into its first day, the Filmotomy Podcast invites Emma Kreienberg and Nicole Palermo, the creators and performers behind the short film series, Ballin' With No Balls. We discuss their film, the FemmeFilmFest as well as the state of play with women women behind the camera in the film business.

Welcome to episode 23. In this episode, Bee hosts Rob, Jonathan, and Al as we discuss the results of her Twitter poll questions about films of 1999, and then we delve into the documentary The Red Pill from 2016, directed by Cassie Jaye which chronicles her journey into the mysterious and polarizing Men's Rights Movement, and explores today's gender war and asks the question "what is the future of gender equality?". 0:00:00 minutes - Intro 0:10:45 minutes - Start of discussion of the Twitter poll results 1:06:28 minutes - Start of discussion about the documentary The Red Pill (2016) 2:26:12 minutes - Outro song

Regular host and birthday boy Al sits this podcast out. Instead, Robin, Bianca, and Rob are joined by Jonathan Holmes making a return after a short absence. They each give three movies they consider guilty pleasures, bad films they can't shake off, or even those they have a love/hate relationship with. Makes for some humorous controversy. Have a listen, and tell us yours.
