Stationed At Home (w/ Director Daniel Masciari)

In this special review/interview episode, we explore Stationed at Home, a new indie film that explores the connection of the cosmic to the everyday life of people in a forgotten town. Following cab driver Ralph as he awaits the passing of the International Space Station across the sky on a cold Christmas Eve, director Daniel Masciari and crew guide us on a journey through spaces and soul of Binghamton, NY. Daniel joins me after a short review to talk about the process of making the film, the influences and inspirations that brought it about, and the deep themes of place and relationships that are hidden beneath the surface of the story.  https://www.establishingshotpod.com/ [https://www.establishingshotpod.com/] Feedback: Email us at establishingshotpod@gmail.com [establishingshotpod@gmail.com] Leave a voicemail from the button on the right side of the screen on our website https://www.establishingshotpod.com/ [https://www.establishingshotpod.com/] Support the Show: Join The Establishing Shot Family for early, ad-free episodes, bonus content, and access to our Discord server where we talk movies all the time: https://www.establishingshotpod.com/support [https://www.establishingshotpod.com/support/] Guest Info: Daniel Masciari, Director of Stationed at Home Daniel on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/danielvmasciari/ [https://www.instagram.com/danielvmasciari/] Stationed at Home Website (w/ links to buy/rent the film): https://www.stationedathome.com/ [https://www.stationedathome.com/] Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stationedathomefilm/ [https://www.instagram.com/stationedathomefilm/] Facebook: http://facebook.com/StationedAtHome [http://facebook.com/StationedAtHome] YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@stationedathomefeaturefilm [https://www.youtube.com/@stationedathomefeaturefilm] Review on IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14284376/ [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14284376/] Review on Rotten Tomatoes: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/stationed_at_home [https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/stationed_at_home] Review on Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/film/stationed-at-home/ [https://letterboxd.com/film/stationed-at-home/]  Follow Eli and the Show: Eli on Twitter (X): https://twitter.com/theeliprice [https://twitter.com/theeliprice] Eli on Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/eliprice [https://letterboxd.com/eliprice] Show on Twitter: https://twitter.com/EShotPod [https://twitter.com/EShotPod] Show on Instagram: https://instagram.com/establishingshotpod [https://instagram.com/establishingshotpod] Show on Threads: https://www.threads.net/@establishingshotpod [https://www.threads.net/@establishingshotpod] Show on Facebook: https://facebook.com/establishingshotpod [https://facebook.com/establishingshotpod] Show on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/establishingshot.bsky.social [https://bsky.app/profile/establishingshot.bsky.social] Show on TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@establishingshotpod [https://tiktok.com/@establishingshotpod] Show on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@EstablishingShotPod [https://youtube.com/@EstablishingShotPod]

Steven Spielberg: An Epilogue

Steven Spielberg is one of the greatest filmmakers of all time. Although his career started with a bang as he basically fathered the modern summer blockbuster with Jaws, it hasn’t been without its ups and downs. One thing that you can never take away from him, however, is both his genius behind the camera and his passion for his projects. In this bittersweet episode, we finish our Spielberg series by taking a look back over his entire career after having visited every single one of his films. I share takeaways, some favorite performances, shots, and moments. And I share my final Spielberg rankings. https://www.establishingshotpod.com/ [https://www.establishingshotpod.com/] Feedback: Email us at establishingshotpod@gmail.com [establishingshotpod@gmail.com] Leave a voicemail from the button on the right side of the screen on our website https://www.establishingshotpod.com/ [https://www.establishingshotpod.com/] Support the Show: Join The Establishing Shot Family for early, ad-free episodes, bonus content, and access to our Discord server where we talk movies all the time: https://www.establishingshotpod.com/support [https://www.establishingshotpod.com/support/] Follow Eli and the Show: Eli on Twitter (X): https://twitter.com/theeliprice [https://twitter.com/theeliprice] Eli on Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/eliprice [https://letterboxd.com/eliprice] Show on Twitter: https://twitter.com/EShotPod [https://twitter.com/EShotPod] Show on Instagram: https://instagram.com/establishingshotpod [https://instagram.com/establishingshotpod] Show on Threads: https://www.threads.net/@establishingshotpod [https://www.threads.net/@establishingshotpod] Show on Facebook: https://facebook.com/establishingshotpod [https://facebook.com/establishingshotpod] Show on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/establishingshot.bsky.social [https://bsky.app/profile/establishingshot.bsky.social] Show on TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@establishingshotpod [https://tiktok.com/@establishingshotpod] Show on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@EstablishingShotPod [https://youtube.com/@EstablishingShotPod] Other Links: My Letterboxd Ranking of Spielberg Films: https://letterboxd.com/eliprice/list/elis-ranking-of-steven-spielbergs-directorial/ [https://letterboxd.com/eliprice/list/elis-ranking-of-steven-spielbergs-directorial/]  Research Resources: - Steven Spielberg All the Films: The Story Behind Every Movie, Episode, and Short by Arnaud Devillard, Olivier Bousquet, Nicolas Schaller - Steven Spielberg: A Life in Films by Molly Haskell - A Companion to Steven Spielberg by Various Authors, edited by Nigel Morris

Director's Debut Feature Film Draft (w/ Haydn Fabre)

Sometimes a new director comes out firing on all cylinders and puts out a great film with their very first feature film. In this week’s movie draft, we explore some great debut films from directors, everyone from Sydney Lumet, Rob Reiner, and even Sam Raimi may get shoutouts amongst other great directors! The main stipulation: no directors with less than 4 films (at the time of recording). As we look to close out our Spielberg series next week, looking back on his films from Duel to The Fabelmans, I thought this would be a fun movie draft to re-release with its own episode. https://www.establishingshotpod.com/ [https://www.establishingshotpod.com/] Feedback: Email us at establishingshotpod@gmail.com [establishingshotpod@gmail.com] Leave a voicemail from the button on the right side of the screen on our website https://www.establishingshotpod.com/ [https://www.establishingshotpod.com/] Support the Show: Join The Establishing Shot Family for early, ad-free episodes, bonus content, and access to our Discord server where we talk movies all the time: https://www.establishingshotpod.com/support/ [https://www.establishingshotpod.com/support/] Guest Info: Haydn Fabre Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/haydnfabre/ [https://www.instagram.com/haydnfabre/] Twitter: https://twitter.com/haydnfabre [https://twitter.com/haydnfabre] Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/haydnfabre/ [https://letterboxd.com/haydnfabre/]  Follow Eli and the Show: Eli on Twitter (X): https://twitter.com/theeliprice [https://twitter.com/theeliprice] Eli on Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/eliprice [https://letterboxd.com/eliprice] Show on Twitter: https://twitter.com/EShotPod [https://twitter.com/EShotPod] Show on Instagram: https://instagram.com/establishingshotpod [https://instagram.com/establishingshotpod] Show on Threads: https://www.threads.net/@establishingshotpod [https://www.threads.net/@establishingshotpod] Show on Facebook: https://facebook.com/establishingshotpod [https://facebook.com/establishingshotpod] Show on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/establishingshot.bsky.social [https://bsky.app/profile/establishingshot.bsky.social] Show on TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@establishingshotpod [https://tiktok.com/@establishingshotpod] Show on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@EstablishingShotPod [https://youtube.com/@EstablishingShotPod] Other Links: My Letterboxd Ranking of Top 10 Director First Features: https://letterboxd.com/eliprice/list/top-10-director-first-features/ [https://letterboxd.com/eliprice/list/top-10-director-first-features/]
