Description
On this wonderful episode of the New Plaza Cinema Podcast, Emmy-nominated documentarian and author (Music by Max Steiner: The Epic Life of Hollywood's Most Influential Composer, A Heart at Fire's Center: The Life and Music of Bernard Hermann) Steven C. Smith joins resident curator Gary Palmucci, film historian Max Alvarez, and cinematography expert Dan Cahill in discussing the otherworldly elements of The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)--from its iconic Bernard Hermann score to how it diverges from other Hollywood films in regard to its adherence to the sci-fi genre and its incredibly relevant anti-war message.
