Ep964: Accademia Giallo CREDITO EXTRA: Snips, Sips, and Instights from the SERGIO MARTINO Interview
Recently, Accademia Giallo presented a rare interview with genre director extraordinaire, Sergio Martino--filmed during a visit to Chicago's historic Music Box Theatre, where he showed two of his most iconic thrillers, Torso and The Strange Vice of Mrs. Wardh.
While recording the intro to that piece, Ian and Bryan spoke at length about meeting Martino, what his films mean to them, and their surprised reaction to the Maestro's own estimation of his reputation as a filmmaker. I think we can all agree that 20 minutes is way too long for an interview intro, so Ian trimmed the fat to a lean five.
Presented here is that full intro, as well as the answer to a fan question from the Strange Vice Q&A--and a little something extra at the very end!
