Description

This episode is number four and we are looking at ‘The Fourth Wall’, the invisible screen that exists between the characters on screen and the audience. Yet many films break that wall and has characters talking directly to the audience or even interacting with filming conventions such as editing and linear narrative. We’re going to be discussing why films do this, how it can be done well, situations where it works, situations where it doesn’t work and we will give you some recommendations of films that we love that break said wall.

Hosts: Phil Slatter and David Woods
