In July!). We include clips from her intros and the presentation, and talk about the surreal joy of seeing these restorations on the big screen with audiences from around the world.Adam and Charlotte talk about their favorite non-Paramount film of the festival, Duel in the Sun (1946). From spontaneous meetings with fellow film nerds to late-night pasta-fueled movie debates, this episode captures the heart of Ritrovato and why we’re already dreaming about going back. Stick around until the end because Adam grabbed a few "Diabolik-ly" cool tote bags to give away! Pop in your earbuds, pour yourself an Aperol Spritz, and join us for a cinematic postcard from Bologna, Italy - no airfare required.Contact Us At:www.perfdamage.comEmail : [email protected] (X) : @perfdamageInstagram : @perf_damageLetterboxd : Perf DamageCheck Out our Youtube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@PerfDamagePodcast
