RIO PODDO continues with the second of the CORE WESTERNS, which is, of course, John Ford's landmark 1939 film Stagecoach. Really happy to have discussed this one! We talk a lot about it + Ford's outsize influence on the Western genre. Follow Michael here:

Was so fun to talk with ODETTE ALDRICH, who made an absolutely INCREDIBLE movie that is hopefully playing near you ASAP. Really excited for people to see this one, I loved it! It is playing at LES CAVES ST SABIN in Paris, France on October 16th at 2300 local time, I am so jealous I don't get to go to a medieval night club and see this. One day though!! Follow the movie and stuff here:
