Classics: An Interview with Jeremy Arnold

Running Press

Front Row Classics welcomes film historian and author, Jeremy Arnold for our first episode in April. He is the author of both volumes of Turner Classic Movies' The Essentials: 52 Must-See Movies and Why They Matter. In the interview, we discuss what makes a film essential along with the many ingredients. Brandon and Eric also ask Jeremy's opinions on several specific films covered in both books. We certainly hope this conversation inspires you to discover the films that should be in every movie lover's vocabulary.

Both volumes are available from Running Press wherever books are sold.

Brandon Davis is the host of Classics and Zone-i-Sodes on the Front Row Network. A true fan of cinema history, Brandon holds the distinction of being the official film historian of the Network.
