Episode description
Now publishing in the main feed every other week on Wednesday! Thirty Mile Zone is the LA Podcast movie club - we are interrogating the canon of LA movies to try to better understand how the city's signature industry and audiences worldwide see us.
This week, Scott is joined by Carolina Miranda from the LA Times and Alison Herman from The Ringer as we discuss Brian DePalma's 1984 Hitchcock mashup Body Double. How does LA architecture interact with classic thriller tropes? How does DePalma see the line dividing LA's 'legit' and porn film industries? What's the real story behind the Chemosphere in the Hollywood Hills? All that and more on this week's episode!
Watch along with us: Next episode is Like Crazy, posting September 15!
