Alonso Duralde on Becoming a Film Critic, Holiday Memories, and the Best Ways to Have a Movie Little Christmas

Films for the Void!

Welcome to an all-new Films for the Void, Bonus Episode #21! In this episode, Landon interviews Alonso Duralde - the Film Reviews Editor for The Wrap, the host of a myriad of podcasts, a published author, columnist, and film festival consultant. With over 30 years of experience, my guest currently resides in West Hollywood, California, with his husband Dave, surrounding all professional and personal facets of his life in the world of film. However, what brings my guest to the podcast today is his love of the holiday season. As an inexhaustible enthusiast of all things Christmas, as well as the author of the book Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas and collaborative author for I’ll Be Home for Christmas Movies: The Deck the Hallmark Podcast’s Guide to Your Holiday TV Obsession, I couldn’t think of a guest more equipped to come on during the month of December.
Landon and Alonso talk about his first memories of falling in love with film, becoming a film critic, building a following through podcasting, favorite holiday memories, and some of his favorite Christmas films - all on the latest episode of Films for the Void!
