Moonlight

Moonlight, Barry Jenkins’s and Tarell Alvin McCraney's loving, melancholic triptych on the subject of Black masculinity, will forever be a part of Academy Awards history (stay gold, Warren Beatty). So too will Argo, for better or worse. Jess and Jamal bring on their producer and editor Ian to discuss the films' contrasting approaches to spatial immersion and the importance of knowing when a scene needs music. Listen to hear the shocking answer to the question: "Are there any Black people in Argo?" MUSIC: "Aim to Stay" by William Ross Chernoff's Nomads [CC-BY]
