Summary

If you're on Letterboxd... do NOT read this! Today we're joined by the delightful Bridger Winegar, host of "I Said No Gifts," to talk about that old favorite of showy auteurs and Twitter cinephiles alike: the LONG one-shot take. Are directorial gimmicks anti-woman because they distract from the work of actresses? Should we ethically contain film buffs somewhere so the rest of us don't have to hear about different kinds of cinema lenses? Who is Margaret Qualley? The answer may shock you.

Thank you to everyone who came out to our tour! We love you more than you can possibly imagine. Sam's next CLUB COMIC is in NYC on Sept 21st: linktree.com/samtaggart
