Fantastic Podcast #3 - We Are Legends

The official podcast of the Festival is back!

We return to Casa Seat, now as part of the BCN Film Fest 2024. On this occasion, Ángel Sala and Mònica Garcia i Massagué seek the spooky expertise of Jaume Balagueró to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the publication of the novel 'I'm a legend'.

Gathered around the equally legendary figure of its author, Richard Matheson, we talk about the cinematographic adaptations of his work(s), about monsters as meaning machines, about loneliness as a mirror of the human condition... and also about how well 70s cinema ages.

After meeting J.A. Bayona and Demián Rugna, here comes the 3rd episode of Sitges Fantastic Podcast: "We Are Legends".
