Summary

You asked, we answered. In this episode, we all learn a little bit more about the origins of film, the structure of the Academy, what the Hays Code was, and some (fun?) trivia about Hollywood's most and least expensive films up to 1930. We also get to share what each of our favorite eras of film is-- and it turns out there might be a right answer to that question. This will be a recurring bonus segment, so if you have any questions about film history or movies or Hollywood drama-- reach us on any of our socials or email [email protected] If you don't want to wait a year before listening to our full bonus episodes, consider supporting us on Patreon
