Episode description
Theodoros Angelopoulos's 1998 film, Eternity and a Day, stars Bruno Ganz as Alexandros, a poet who thinks he’s at the end of his life. He rescues an Albanian refugee boy (Ahilleas Skevis) who lives on the street and wipes windshields for spare change.
Agatha Luz (Cinemaspection) and John Atom (Heroic Purgatory) join Mike to discuss the films while Andrew Horton (The Films of Theo Angelopoulos: A Cinema of Contemplation) talks about his relationship with Angelopolous.
