Stengt bar med en gjestAnonym mail fra en anonym alkoholiker, med Jannike og AlexAlex fikk nylig en e-mail med bekymringsmelding fra en anonym person som hevdet å kjenne godt til rus og alkoholproblematikk. Den anonyme senderen skal ha fulgt Luciphers reise fra begynnelsen av Faen, til dit vi er i dag med Stengt Bar Med En Gjest. Guilty pleasure, mente han om sin interesse for podkastene. I mailen ble det lagt fram en rekke episoder, tolkninger av disse og bekymringer om hvordan podkasten glorifiserer og bagatelliserer alkohol som rusform, og derav hvilken skade Lucipher potensielt kan ha i kjæresteforhold.

Exposed : le podcast de Film Exposure03 : 1917, des vertus du montagePlus c’est long, plus c’est bon ?
Pour notre premier numéro de l’année 2020, nous revenons sur la question du plan-séquence et plus précisément sur les films tournés (ou qui donnent l’impression d’être tournés) en un seul plan. La démarche représente-t-elle un réel intérêt ? S’agit-il d’un simple exercice de démonstration ? Quels sont les films qui sont parvenus à dépasser la seule idée du challenge technique pour justifier ce dispositif particulier en le mettant au service de ce qu’ils avaient à raconter ?
