57 “So This Is Dr. Film” featuring Eric Grayson

The Marx Brothers Council Podcast - A podcast by Matthew Coniam, Noah Diamond, Bob Gassel

Categories:

Film preservationist and collector Eric Grayson joins us to examine the 2023 state of the Marx Brothers’ catalog. We discuss which films have missing, damaged, or subpar footage (and we don’t mean “Go West”), and whether there is any hope for upgrades. Eric gets into the weeds with info that will surprise even the most knowledgeable fan. We’ll also examine the copyright issues that the Marx films will soon face, and look forward to how AI technology may help in restoration efforts. Finally, you’ll find out what happens when we have a guest who’s never heard our podcast.
