Reflections In A Golden Eye vs. Searching

Welcome to Highbrow Lowbrow, the show where our podcast hosts Steve Powell and Dan Slattery pit high art against low culture.

In this episode, we look at two films which are both marvels of narrative cinema, and also landmark works in technical innovation.

Steve’s choice is John Huston’s twisted melodrama Reflections in a Golden Eye, a film which was originally released in an all-gold colour palette.

Dan takes a look at Searching, a film for the internet age where all of the footage is taken from social media accounts.

Do these experiments in cinema work? As always, dear listener, the final decision is up to you. Beware spoilers. Enjoy the show....
