On Episode 138 of Floating Through Film, we continue our series picked by Dany, Roberto Rossellini! Dany starts the episode with a discussion on what it means to say that Rossellini's camera explores the "enigmatic rapport between people and the world: how people relate to landscape, to each other, to the transcendent. (Bergala)". He then relates this to a discussion on Rosselini's thoughts on acting, and how actors should be used in film (21:43). We then review the two films for this week, 1950's The Flowers of St. Francis (40:38), and 1959's India: Matri Bhumi (1:40:37).Episode Next Week: The Taking of Power by Louis XIV + SocratesMusic:- Intro: from The Flowers of St. Francis- Break: India: Matri Bhumi- Outro: India: Matri BhumiHosts: Luke Seay (LB: https://letterboxd.com/seayluke/, Twitter: https://x.com/luke67s)Blake Tourville (LB: https://letterboxd.com/blaketourville/, Twitter: https://x.com/vladethepoker)Dany Joshuva (LB: https://letterboxd.com/djoshuva/, Twitter: https://x.com/grindingthefilm)Podcast Links (Spotify and Apple): https://linktr.ee/floatingthroughfilmLetterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/floatingfilm/Email: [email protected]
