0:00.0	The New Beverly Cinema presents the Pure Cinema Podcast. My name is Brian Sauer. I am joined, as always,
0:16.4	by cinema archaeologist Elricane. Yeah, that makes me feel very indie.
0:21.6	I like it.
0:22.6	Well, this is kind of what we're doing in this episode in some ways, is digging through some of our favorite directors and sort of finding some of their stuff that we hadn't watched yet.
0:33.6	And I'm curious what inspired this idea, Al Rick.
0:36.6	Yeah, I mean, this is something I always think about, because I'm not, I'm not like, I mean, everyone's different as cinephiles.

1:32.6	Like, it's not that I don't want to see it.
1:34.1	It's that I'm not being.
1:34.9	I don't feel an urgency to see something, especially with the newer ones.
1:39.3	The other one was Michael Mann's black hat, weirdly enough. Just randomly, you know, just these are modern examples.
1:45.6	Obviously, we're going to be digging a way back.
