On the twenty-ninth episode of the Cinematic Odyssey, Tristen and Max dive into Mikhail Kalatozov's nearly lost work Soy Cuba-- or I Am Cuba. Tristen and Max discuss the historical timeline in Cuba and why the film was made under the Castro regime, how the camera acts just as important as any of the others that we see on screen, and the delicate balance between national pride and nationalism. The beautiful poetry that ties each vignette of the film together lets both Tristen and Max reset and identify the feelings of another nation, one so close, and yet, so strange to our lives.
In this episode, we start with analyzing a one shot scene from the Black and White film "I AM CUBA". Then we do a taste test of Mr. Beasts Feastables chocolate bars! And we finish off by presenting our Monster's Inc. inspired monster designs we made ourselves! Your podcast hosts are Joe Wisener, Josh Wisener and Wyatt Goforth. This Wise Works Podcast Ep. 301 was recorded from their Virginia Beach Studio.
This week we're back to discuss one of the most vital and hotly-anticipated films being displayed in UK cinemas this month: Sergei Eistenstein's legendary BATTLESHIP POTEMKIN. We also cast our eye over two curios of Soviet film, Eisenstein's uncompleted QUE VIVA MEXICO! and Mikhail Kalatozov's revolutionary I AM CUBA, before grazing on Christopher Nolan's poorly-rolled joint, TENET. Including covers of L'Internationale and the Stooges' 'No Fun'.

Dave Eves joins Martin Kessler for a wildfire fast conversation about filmmaker Mikhail Kalatozov. They brave the elements to marvel at I Am Cuba’s famous long takes, consider the logistics of Letter Never Sent’s forest fire, and look at how The Cranes Are Flying set the bar for self-serious Russian directors. If you survive to the end you’ll hear some strong opinions on arthouse theatre audiences, Hard to Be a God, Blumhouse horror movies, the accents of token straw-man Americans, and of course why “cinema is a lie”.
