Welcome to the Filmographers Podcast, where we study a director’s entire career, one film at a time. In each episode, we discuss why a single film succeeded or failed and examine it in the context of the Hollywood landscape when it was released. We’re the academic, but fun, movie podcast! In our first season, we’re turning the spotlight on Steven Soderbergh, one of the most celebrated, fascinating, and versatile directors in modern American cinema.

Check out our spoiler-free conversation to find out!

The Covid-19 pandemic shut down production of Steven Soderbergh’s “No Sudden Move” (2021)—but not for long. The director who brought us “Contagion” knew all the right moves to make to get actors back to the set.

In a Filmographers First, we interview Chris Sullivan, who was unforgettable as Tom Cleary in Steven Soderbergh’s “The Knick” and stars as Chris Payne in Soderbergh's forthcoming movie “Presence.” (You may also know him as Toby Damon on “This Is Us” and . . . Taserface in “Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2”!)

Over his first three movies, director Robert Eggers has proven to be one of the most distinct, unique voices in modern cinema. Now, with "Nosferatu," he's tackling his most ambitious project yet--a remake of a beloved 1922 silent film classic, a movie that some argue created the template for all of horror cinema.
Keir and Michael sank their teeth into the latest version of this vampire tale--but did they fall under Count Orlock's spell?

With “Let Them All Talk” (2020), has Steven Soderbergh finally made a chick flick? A mom movie? Whatever you want to call it, our two dads—Mike and Keir—really, really liked it. (Even though it has Meryl Streep in it.) Also, stick around as these two writers list their favorite movies...about writers.

“The Laundromat” (2019) is the second movie Steven Soderbergh made for Netflix in the same year—but this one had a theatrical release. Is Soderbergh going Netflix, or is Netflix going Soderbergh?

Steven Soderbergh shot his last movie on an iPhone 7, and he liked the experience so much that he did it again, but with one key difference—he shot “High Flying Bird” (2019) with an iPhone 8.
