Summary: For this second episode of our current season we try something new with a look back at an important film from the past, Barbara Kopple’s 1976 HARLAN COUNTY USA, which won the 1977 Best Documentary Oscar. Our guest host this week is actually a guest historian, Betsy McLane, who not only knows just about everything there is to know about documentary history, but also knows quite a lot about Kopple. We also play a recent interview Chris did with directors Steven Bognar and Julia Reichert of AMERICAN FACTORY
