[Episode] East and West: Movies Set in the Same Time Period

The moment I finished this video, I want to revisit it immediately. I'm limited by the length of the video, the amount of time I have, and the films I have access to.

[Weekly Update] Intentional shoddiness in film (and YouTube)

Been on a bit of a history binge lately. I guess it's the aftermath of finishing a 4 part series.

Maybe I should do one about various ...
