The Film Effect Podcast is a weekly show that’s 100% dedicated to the art & history of film. It’s the culmination of one’s love for cinema… Each week, we take a particular film and give it “The Film Effect Treatment”: our version of a deep-dive that goes above & beyond to cover additional areas you typically wouldn’t get on a regular movie podcast (such as complete box office info, our first time experiences, changes we’d make with a crystal ball, ounces of trivia, and more!)
