First Timers Movie Club
The podcast for movie lovers, by movie makers. Award winning indie filmmakers and self proclaimed movie buffs Patrick Poe & Lolo Loren have seen a lot of movies - but they haven't seen 'em all. Join them as they try to watch all the movies that everyone thinks they "should" have seen by now. In each episode they will discus why and how they have avoided seeing a specific famous film, and why that film has a special place in cinema history. They will watch the film and give you, the listener, their honest and immediate reaction to the film as well as some fun film trivia! New episodes twice every month on Fridays!

Lolo here. I think this is the first time I’ve ever been reticent to admit to a famous film I haven’t seen, but here we are – I have never seen American Graffiti, despite citing A New Hope as one of the most influential films in my life and in my work as a filmmaker. (If you don’t know the connection between those two films, listen to this episode of the podcast to learn all about it). Listen now to hear my reaction on seeing it fo...
