Denver: Greatest Hits

If you only have time to listen to a handful of the podcasts we made at the Denver Film Festival, listen to these.

So we went a little nuts at the Denver Film Festival--just shy of 50 podcasts went up on SpoutBlog and the Denver sitelet. But unless you're really bored this Thanksgiving weekend, we realize you won't have time to sit down and listen to them one by one. We thought we would help out by highlighting a handful of our favorites. Like all greatest hits albums, it's not going to provide the full experience, but it at least gives you a good sense for what was going on in Denver. Listen in...

- Academy Award-winning director Anthony Minghella talking about his newest film, Breaking and Entering.

- Angie Avarez discussing her mockumentary about high school teachers, Chalk.

- Brothers and ultimate collaborators Aaron and Adam Nee talking about their film The Last Romantic.
