ARTS - Czech Cinema w/Ryan Keating (Lambert)

Guest: Film journalist Ryan Keating of the Movie Barf cinema blog

Cinema is a big deal here in the Czech Republic - Czechs have been innovators in the field since the beginning, many films and TV shows are filmed here, and more and more independent cinema establishments are opening up around Prague. We talk about the Movie Barf blog, new places for film buffs, why Czech hate popcorn, subtitles vs dubbing, the Czechoslovak New Wave, the surreal animation of Jan Švankmajer, modern Czech movies and more.
