    Episode 10: Whit's Up! -- Movies Directed by Whit Stillman
    Jun 3 2019
    In our continued celebration of directors in 2019, for this episode we've invited a guest — Phoenix-based journalist Tom Reardon — to join us to chat about one of his favorite directors, Whit Stillman. With only seven movies under his directorship, Stillman hasn't been terribly prolific but he has managed to maintain a following and create opinions about his movies that often follow the lives of young, rich kids in NYC. Let's just say not everyone in this convo holds the same level of fandom... of the director and of socialites.
