Watching Classic Movies Podcast: Classic Film Travel Destinations, The Barrymore Film Center with Executive Director Nelson Page
My guest is Nelson Page, Executive Director of the Barrymore Film Center in Fort Lee, New Jersey, the birthplace of the United States film industry. The center is an evolving cultural institution, featuring a repertory movie theater that brings back the comforts and style of classic cinema and a museum that is free to the public and has already been a source of great fascination to its visitors in the five months it has been open. We talked about what the center has to offer, the history of film in Fort Lee, and how the future of cinema is just as exciting as the past.

Watching Classic Movies Podcast: Classic Film Travel--The James Dean Museum with Curator Dorothy Schultz
This season of Watching Classic Movies Podcast I'm going to be interviewing people from the places I write about in my new book, The Classic Film Fan USA Travel Guide: Over 500 Attractions for Road Trips and Online Exploration.
My first guest of the season is Dorothy Schultz, curator of the James Dean Museum.
We had a great talk about this thriving tribute to an actor who burned bright in his short life and left an enduring legacy. The museum is home to the largest collection of Dean artifacts and attracts visitors from around the world. It is also deeply loved and supported by the surrounding community, which includes Dean’s family. Dorothy shared stories about the museum and the annual festival it hosts, tips about how to make the most of a visit, and what Dean means to her as an artist and influential figure.
