Summary

For this bonus episode, Brian and Elric interview film writer and author of the new book Fun City Cinema - New York City And the Movies That Made It - Jason Bailey. Jason has done a wonderful job encapsulating and curating a bunch of great New York films whilst also intertwining them with the real life narrative of the city itself and what was going on with it at the times these movies were made. It's a delightful coffee table sized book and gets a high Pure Cinema recommend.
