Episode 5: BAM's Ashley Clark

Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, a podcast where we reach out to friends to talk about what we’ve been watching. It’s as simple as that. Joining Nicolas Rapold is Ashley Clark, director of film programming at BAM, and a longtime film critic. The lineup spans from the limits of leisure to the extremities of war and political action. There’s The Green Ray, Eric Rohmer’s achingly poignant summer film; Winter Soldier, a heart-stopping Vietnam documentary that’s sometimes forgotten; a rewarding pairing of two films from the 2010s, Nocturama and Happy as Lazzaro, and others. Please note that this was recorded before the ongoing protests for justice, and as such, is something of a time capsule. Original music by Nate Kinsella Photo by Steve Snodgrass
