Draws on

What the speakers say they, or a film of theirs, drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

Alfred Hitchcock: 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through The Truman Show (1998), which they scored: Alfred Hitchcock ⇒ The Truman Show (the host's read). Same line: the premise is Frank Capra crossed with Hitchcock.
    “you basically take Frank Capra and Alpha Hitchcock and you put it together, and that's what this movie is.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘The Truman Show’ With Bill Simmons, Glen Powell, and Chris Ryan · 0:29:43 · unknown (0.40 sure it was them)

Frank Capra: 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through The Truman Show (1998), which they scored: Frank Capra ⇒ The Truman Show (the host's read). Nichol's idea is described as Capra plus Hitchcock combined.
    “you basically take Frank Capra and Alpha Hitchcock and you put it together, and that's what this movie is.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘The Truman Show’ With Bill Simmons, Glen Powell, and Chris Ryan · 0:29:43 · unknown (0.40 sure it was them)

Mrs. Dalloway: 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through The Hours (2002), which they scored: Mrs. Dalloway ⇒ The Hours (the host's read). The Hours is a nesting-doll take on Mrs. Dalloway, with Kidman as Virginia Woolf in one of three timelines.

Darkest Hour (2017): 1 line

Survivor: 1 line

  1. industry (industry) · through The Truman Show (1998), which they scored: The Truman Show ⇒ Survivor (the host's read). Truman Show weirdly kicked off reality TV, predating Survivor by a year or two.
