“Cinema is the most complex and powerful art form in the present world. It can help us to better understand our own lives, the lives of those around us and even how our society and culture operate. They can shed light on political and spiritual matters too and can provide catharsis and perspective and may open our eyes to new ways of thinking, feeling and pursuing our lives.”

Istiak Mahmood: Influence and Importance of Cinema on the Lifestyle of Educated Youth

Join Troy Long as he hosts the podcast As Time Goes By. Here’s what Troy has to say about his podcast:

“It’s a podcast about film…more importantly we take chosen films and contextualize them through commentaries, in depth discussions, and as time goes by. This podcast aims to dive deeper into the ways we watch films and why they matter. In an age where content is rapidly produced and consumed, it is vital to me to think about the things I’m watching through a closer lens. That’s not to say this podcast is too serious…in fact it might not be serious enough. The experience is to culminate both highbrow discourse as well as have some fun. I believe in blind faith, so take a chance on me and I believe this could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.”

In this episode, Troy commentates on Judas and the Black Messiah. You’ll hear Troy break down the harmonious performances of the three main roles, talk with Vin Diesel about the power of family, and aim to get revenge on those who borrow his movies without getting them back.
