Join us for an in-depth discussion with our guest, Christopher Tate.  Although Christopher is a long-time friend of our host, his list of influential movies still offers up some surprises.  Listen in to the rambling conversation that comes from many years of familiarity and learn about candy bars for sharks, the hell of war, and the reality of happily-ever-afters.  As a bonus, enjoy both guest and host completely misremembering important plot points of a favorite movie (see if you can spot the error).

We recently sat down with our youngest guest to date, Karina Chiu, for a discussion of the films that have been most influential in her life.  We were surprised to find that Karina’s film choices were not at all what we expected.  Come along for our discussion about holding on to your identity, the lure of a black and white world, unhappy endings, and paper cranes.

Today, we proudly present the first episode of the Movies Made Me podcast.

Join your host, Cheryl Jones, for a look at the show format, as well as her lists of five films and three other items that have influenced her to become the person she is today.  As mentioned in this edition, future episodes of Movies Made Me will feature special guests, who will discuss their lists in an informal setting that we hope you will enjoy.  Like sitting down with your friends for a really great conversation about film, Movies Made Me will bring you an entertaining and personal look at the ways in which movies help us create our identities and affect us in ways we may not previously have considered.

So, sit back, relax and give episode one a listen.  We hope you’ll enjoy it and will come back for more.  And, please, let us know what you think; leave comments here, or use the links to the left to communicate with us through Facebook or Twitter.  And be sure to subscribe to our RSS feed.

It won’t be long now.  Soon we’ll have a brand spankin’ new podcast available for you to enjoy.  Join us as we discuss the movies that influence us and help us form our identities.  Virtually every one of us has had a film experience that altered us in some way, that gave us a passion, a fear, a way of looking at the world.  These are the movies we’ll explore, as we talk about how they changed us and why.  We’ll also delve into the broad spectrum of other influences that have turned us into the people we are today.

So, get ready.  It’s gonna be fun.
