Welcome to Open Form, a new weekly film podcast hosted by award-winning writer Mychal Denzel Smith. Each week, a different author chooses a movie: a movie they love, a movie they hate, a movie they hate to love. Something nostalgic from their childhood. A brand-new obsession. Something they've been dying to talk about for ages and their friends are constantly annoyed by them bringing it up.
In this episode, Mychal talks to Eula Biss about the 1984 film Purple Rain, starring Prince, Apollonia Kotero, and Morris Day, and directed by Albert Magnoli.
