A new mural was unveiled this month on the Sansom Street side of the Philadelphia Film Society Center called “Films Shaped by a City,” featuring many Philly films like The Sixth Sense, 12 Monkeys, and Trading Places. So we’re listening back to our conversation with local film critics Len Webb and Vincent Williams from The MICHEAUX MISSION podcast, about our favorite Philly films.
