Wind, Reel, & Print
Two internet cinephiles aim to recreate the film set ”water cooler talk” where discussion is open to everything movies. From cherished classics to repugnant newcomers, WR&P captures the complexities of life through the lens of cinema, living comfortably within the boundaries of high and low art, popular and unpopular titles, and local and international cinema.
