Welcome to Episode #183 of The Swampflix Podcast. For this episode, Brandon, James, Britnee, and Hanna discuss the highbrow, low-energy art of “slow cinema” – ranging from Scott Barley’s self-distributed microbudget cult film Sleep Has Her House (2017) to Chantal Akerman’s landmark feminist classic Jeanne Dielman (1975), recently cited by Sight & Sound as “the greatest film of all time”.
