Ep 315: “Black Bag”

March 25, 2025

We dig through Steven Soderbergh’s “Black Bag” and discuss:



  • Cinematography, practical lighting;
  • Story & Writing, story engine, subplots;
  • and other such stuff and things and stuff.

A success, to me, is the ability to keep working. That’s success. It has nothing to do with money; it’s the ability to keep getting things made, period. – Steven Soderbergh
