Film preservation is vital to keeping film alive, and right now, we are at a perilous moment for the practice. Today’s guest was on in 2022 as he launched a new streaming site for showing classic films as a part of Film Detective; this year, he is still in the film preservation industry, but with a new venture, Film Masters. Joining me once again is Phil Hopkins, and we discuss the challenges of restoring classic B-movies, some of the films that matter to him, and why a resource like “Mystery Science Theater 3000” can aid in passing films down. I hope you enjoy!
