    Welcome to Episode 10 of The Film Ignite Podcast! Today we discuss 2002's Brazillian Crime Drama, and a film that will leave you speechless.

    A harsh look into the gang violence in Rio, mixed with top class filmmaking, makes City Of God a one of a kind viewing experience.

    Aug 1 2021

    Welcome to Episode 8 of The Film Ignite Podcast! Today we stray away from the usual film discussion, and instead talk about a question that has been on my mind recently: What is the perfect movie length? 

    With so many movies to choose from, a 3 hour runtime may seem daunting, but through my endeavors, I have found longer movies to be the best ones that I've seen. 

    Is there something about longer movies that makes them better? And has the rise of streaming altered the movie watching experience? 

    Tune in to hear my thoughts on all these questions, along with giving a list of some of the best "longer" movies out there!
