Gimme Three Podcast - A Series For Cinephiles
Gimme Three is a love letter to one of the most powerful mediums of artistic expression—a love letter to the films that moved us and to the great experiences we've had watching them.
In each episode, hosts Nicholas Ybarra and Bella Efstratis (and frequent special guests) will pick three incredible movies based on a selected theme.
The Gimme Three podcast aims to encourage people to return to the theater and expand their watch lists through fun banter and passionate analysis.
Gimme Three Podcast - A Series For Cinephiles
101 - Noir November
Before heading into the Holiday season, Noir November could not be ignored. For the first time, Nick & Bella celebrate Noir November with three unforgettable, game-changing classics.
- We start with the Humphrey Bogart-led masterpiece and the catalyst for the Film Noir movement, 1941’s The Maltese Falcon.
- Second, Billy Wilder’s bleak, twisted, and sultry classic Double Indemnity.
- Finally, Alfred Hitchcock dipped his toes in the Noir lore with the wildly unnerving Strangers on a Train.
Nick and Bella also dive into the debate of whether Film Noir is a genre or a style.
Let us know what you think of these films, and let us know what your favorite Film Noir movie is.
