Ashley and Joel discuss the under appreciated film, 'Shadow of the Vampire,' analyzing its portrayal of the relationship between the filmmaker and the titular vampire, and the ethical dilemmas faced in the pursuit of artistic greatness.The conversation explores various themes surrounding the film industry, particularly focusing on the dark comedy of vampire films, the artistic sacrifices made by actors and directors, and the historical context of filmmaking in post-World War I Germany. The hosts discuss the impact of directors on their actors, the evolution of film as an art form, and the moral implications of creating art at the expense of personal well-being.WANNA TAKE A VAMPIRE TOUR WITH US IN NEW ORLEANS THIS NOVEMBER? https://www.patreon.com/posts/wanna-take-tour-132076903?What's Next for the Articulate Coven?All dates are for Patron availability, regular podcast apps & YouTube has the episode a day later.August 17th: Book Club - Blood Canticle Part 2 - Chapters 11 - 21August 24th: Movie Night - The Howling (1981)August 31st: Book Club - Blood Canticle Part 3 - Chapters 22-31September 7th: Movie Night - Teen Witch (1989)September 14th: Special Guest Episode!September 21st: Joel's Birthday LivestreamNEW MERCH!!
