Few people have influenced and encouraged my foray into the film world quite like Todd Hitchcock, Director of Programming at the AFI Silver Theatre, and our splendid guest tonight. After years of talking all things cinema it's a wonder we still have more to discuss, but as always we managed a fascinating deep-dive into what makes great movies great - this time, Scorsese's Taxi Driver.
Our chat also encompassed the Neolithic wonder of the Orkney Islands, the AFI Silver podcast Silver Streams, and Todd's remarkable lyrical expertise. It's Playing Favorites.
