Ribbon of Darkness: Daphné Baiwir's King on Screen
The Halloween Season is coming to a close. Mr. Chavez & I are concluding with a look at the prolific and celebrated novelist, Stephen King. First we begin with a look at Daphné Baiwir's 2022 - French/Belgian financed - Documentary, King on Screen. More a talking head celebration of Stephen King's film adaptations than any kind of serious examination of the novelists work; the subtle difference here is that the majority of the talking heads are directors/producers/screenwriters of Stephen King's film adaptations. Pure fluff, however fluff that leads your favorite podcast through The Looking Glass and into a world of subtlety, grotesqueries, inventiveness, violence, and humanity. The movie is a lot of fun, and - as always - we are even more fun discussing it. Take a listen. You'll have a good time.
As always, we can be reached at gondoramos@yahoo.com. Many Thanks.
