A podcast focused on all things cinematic
Emmanuelle Perryman (that’s me) is the host and producer of The Reel Woman: A podcast about all things cinematic. I earned a degree in Cinema Studies from The City College of New York and have spent the last 20 years working in a variety of film-related jobs in New York, Los Angeles, and Detroit. I’ve taught film to both adults and school-age children, interned at the Cannes and Sundance Film Festivals as well as in the Film Department of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Over the years I have gained many friends and acquaintances who are involved, in various ways, in film, music, fashion, academia, and politics. I’am thrilled now to have them join me as guests on my podcast to discuss our shared love of movies and talk about the ones that have inspired and influenced them.
In this episode, I talk with author John Oller about his biography of Jean Arthur entitled Jean Arthur: The Actress Nobody Knew. Mr. Oller’s biography was hailed by Leonard Maltin as “An exceptional piece of work.” We discuss Jean Arthur’s rise to fame and her career in Hollywood. The focus is on her work with directors Howard Hawks, Frank Capra, and George Stevens. Click on the title above to purchase from Amazon.
