    Primer & Predestination: Time Keeps Slippin' on a Banana Peel

    Did the intrepid trio get in over their heads with this episode about Time Travel movies? Did they create wonky timeline-polluting paradoxes with their discussion of Primer and Predestination? Kathy, Mark and Burk try their best to explain the almost unexplainable weirdness of some classic time travel films, and beg listeners to help them understand how it all works.

    Episode #7: Heading "Upstream Color" With Shane Carruth

    Episode #7: Heading "Upstream Color" With Shane Carruth
    It's been nearly 10 years since Shane Carruth made a splash on the filmmaking scene with the super low-budget time travel film Primer, which went on to find a cult following. He's now self-distributing his second film, Upstream Color, which follows a relationship across multiple non-linear storylines and also involves pigs and parasites and drugs and kidnappings. He also stars in the film, edited it, and worked on the score. In this episode, Monica Castillo talks with him about the use of symbols, the distinct color scheme, working both in front of and behind the camera, his brief collaboration with Rian Johnson on Looper, and much more.

    SHOW NOTES:

    About Our Guest:

    Shane Carruth is a film director, writer, actor and composer. Before pursuing a career as a filmmaker he studied math and worked as a software engineer. His first film, Primer, won the Grand Jury Prize at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival. His second film, Upstream Color, won the Special Jury Award for Sound Design at the same festival in 2013 and is gradually being self-distributed across the country.
