Film Inquiry presents Blindspots with Jake and Kristy. In this new podcast series, Film Inquiry staff members and fast friends Jake Tropila and Kristy Strouse will each recommend a film they like that the other person has not seen. They will then watch the other person’s selection and come together to discuss their thoughts and reactions to both films. For those who seek hidden gems and new findings in the world of cinema, this is the podcast for you.

On Episode 3 of Blindspots, Jake and Kristy introduce each other to a pair of mid-90s films that are all about the industry: 1996’s IRMA VEP, Olivier Assayas’ loving ode to cinema and Maggie Cheung, and the 1995 film TO DIE FOR, Gus Van Sant’s biting satire on the price of fame. Listen and enjoy!

The music used is in the film To Die For, and is Season of the Witch by Donovan.

The “Film Inquiry Presents Blindspots” podcast can be found on: Spotify, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, our Youtube channel, and RadioPublic.
