Welcome to Depth Perception. We discuss movies and dive into how films direct the way we experience them. We create a perception of sound, a perception of sight, with a dimension of mind. We move into a land of both shadow and substance, of themes and ideas.
We will discuss, dissect, and interpret movies. Each episode may be a specific movie, or it may be a theme that certain films support. Every movie has something to offer us as an audience. We are not here to rate them, nor bash them.
New episodes will be uploaded on a weekly basis.
