Greetings, inter-world! I’m Valerie “VC” Collins, world explorer and west-coast enthusiast. Thank you for joining me here at ValerieTalks.com. I started my podcasts & blog to explore and discuss the activities I love most: swanky travel experiences, and the world of television, film & entertainment.
When I was a teenager, Cinemax had a program that came on every Wednesday or Thursday at 8pm called Vanguard Cinema. Each week, they would show either a non-mainstream American or foreign film. This is how I saw the movies A Clockwork Orange and Orlando and many more like them. I absolutely loved Vanguard Cinema. It opened my eyes to so many films that would never have been played in the movie theaters back then.
The other reason why I enjoyed these films is because they were a way to escape to other parts of the world. To me they were like travel brochures that came to life. Vanguard Cinema would show films from all over the world, and I would get a peek at these beautiful places. Because of these films, I discovered a passion to see the places that were in these movies. I always dreamed that one day I would be able to travel around the world.
