Depth Perception Movie Podcast

Welcome to Depth Perception. We discuss movies and dive into how films direct the way we experience them. We create a perception of sound, a perception of sight, with a dimension of mind. We move into a land of both shadow and substance, of themes and ideas.We will discuss, dissect, and interpret movies. Each episode may be a specific movie, or it may be a theme that certain films support. Every movie has something to offer us as an audience. We are not here to rate them, nor bash them. New
