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.

S3|Ep. 5: Movies About The Movies: Hollywood Reflected

A discussion with Dr. Christopher Ames, the president of Russell Sage College, about his book “Movies About The Movies: Hollywood Reflected”. We focus on two movies from his book - Preston Sturges’ Sullivan’s Travels (1942), and Gene Kelly, and Stanley Donen’s Singin’ In The Rain (1952). We also look at two movies not in his book - Michel Hazanavicius’ black and white, mostly silent Best Picture winner The Artist (2011), and the Coen Bros.’ Hail, Caesar! (2016). What do these movies say about Hollywood? What do these movies say about America? And why are movies about Hollywood and the moviemaking process so popular?
