Enjoy a conversation between Wexner Center Assistant Film/Video Curator Chris Stults and Sam Pollard about his 2017 documentary Two Trains Runnin', a fascinating look at political and cultural upheaval during the “Freedom Summer” of 1964. The film follows separate groups of young men—musicians, college students, and record collectors—who head south to coax long-retired bluesmen Son House and Skip James out of hiding.
A director, editor, producer, Emmy winner and Academy Award nominee, Pollard's credits include numerous projects for PBS such as Eyes on the Prize II, and several films with Spike Lee as editor or producer.
This is best listened to after watching Two Trains Runnin'. The film is available to stream through Hulu, Amazon, and Vimeo.
