Why listen
The Movies That Made Me turns film interviews into personal movie maps, asking directors, screenwriters, actors, composers, and other film people to trace the movies that shaped their taste and work. Josh Olson and Joe Dante keep the conversations loose, movie-geeky, and full of deep-cut recommendations, so listeners come away with both industry stories and a watchlist. It is especially good for cinephiles, filmmakers, horror fans, and anyone who likes hearing creative people talk through their influences.
