  • Episode 16: Elaine May with Carrie Courogen (Miss May Does Not Exist)
    Mar 19 2025

    “People would leave me saying, ‘She’s a nice girl. What is this big thing about? She’s a nice girl.’ And the thing is, of course, I wasn’t a nice girl. And when they found this out, they hated me all the more.”—Elaine May, 2006


    Elaine May is a game-changing director, writer, and actress that not enough people know about. Thankfully, I was able to talk to a May expert, writer Carrie Courogen, who wrote an Elaine May biography called 'Miss May Does Not Exist: The Life and Work of Elaine May, Hollywood's Hidden Genius.' We spoke about her significance to cinema and comedy, her fascinating career, her elusiveness, and more!

  • Episode 15: David Lynch Twitch Marathon (with Jen & Matt)
    Feb 12 2025
    Recorded a week and a half after David Lynch's death, this episode is a mishmash of interviews with Cinema of the Dam'd programmers Jen Bronson and Matt Cornell and clips of what we showed during our 15 hour twitch marathon. We spoke about our Lynch faves, what he means to us, and where our head was at after watching so much of his work at once (it was pretty divine). Lynch's death hit hard and this won't be the last time I feature him on Somebody's Watching.Show Notes:Cinema of the Dam'dJennifer's Bronson's InstagramCinema of the Dam'd's InstagramThe Squid and the Whale (2005)The Straight Story (1999)Blue Velvet (1986)Blue Velvet edited for televisionTwin Peaks (1990-1991, 2017)Mulholland Drive (2001)Lost Highway (1997)Eraserhead (1977)Inland Empire (2006)Hotel Room (1993)Crash (1996)Pink Flamingos (1972)Swingers (1996)John WatersDavid Wants to Fly (2010)Angelo Badalamenti on Laura Palmer's themeFollow Somebody's Watching here:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter: @somebodyspod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: @somebodyswatchingpod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: somebodywatchingpod@gmail.com

    Dec 10 2024
    Caryn Coleman is the founder of New York-based film initiative The Future of Film is Female which amplifies the work of women and non-binary filmmakers early in their career, offering short film grants. Caryn's initiative has been exponentially growing and I wanted to ask her how she made it all happen! We talk about how Caryn came to curating, her Future of Film is Female highlights, and the knots and bolts of indie distribution.
