Director Justin Simien on 'Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One' 56:16

This week, we're throwing it back to one of our favorite interviews! When writer/director Justin Simien ( Dear White People , Haunted Mansion ) first saw William Greaves' groundbreaking 1968 film, Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One . He was mad. Not about the film's avant-garde style (part fiction, part documentary, part performance art) but about the fact that he hadn't seen it sooner -- it might've saved him a lot of trouble as he found his way in a challenging, second-guessing industry. Now Justin is introducing more people to the contributions to cinema made by Black creatives like Greaves, through his series Hollywood Black , now streaming from MGM+. Then Jordan has one quick thing about the politics of horror! It's a terrifyingly good take. Feeling Seen is hosted by Jordan Crucchiola and is a production Maximum Fun. Need more Feeling Seen ?

This interview (with a different "One Quick Thing" segment) originally aired in September of 2022. We're off to the see the Wizard with this REPLAY! At 62, Doug Jones is as busy as ever, playing The Baron on FX's What We Do in the Shadows , Saru on Star Trek: Discovery , and returning to the role of Billy Butcherson in Hocus Pocus 2. But you might be most familiar with Doug for his singular roles in heavy prosthetics -- as Abe Sapien in Hellboy and Hellboy II , as The Amphibian Man in The Shape of Water ; as Pan and the Pale Man in Pan's Labyrinth . Doug's physical presence -- once something he'd have wished away -- is a huge part of what has made his performances so rich and memorable. And one early source of inspiration and identification was Ray Bolger's Scarecrow in The Wizard of Oz . Then, Jordan has one quick thing about the terrifying Art the Clown. *** With Jordan Crucchiola and Doug Jones. Feeling Seen is hosted by Jordan Crucchiola and is a production Maximum Fun.
