Not your typical movie review podcast! The Establishing Shot centers around deep dives into the filmographies of a director, covering their films episode by episode. This is not just about reviewing their movies but looking deeper at what influences, themes, and filmmaking techniques are used across a director's body of work. Join me, Eli Price, and my array of guest hosts as we give you an establishing shot of these directors and their films along with fun supplemental episodes like movie drafts, top 5 lists, interviews, and more!
