Antti Alanen: Film Diary: Joe Dante morning discussion hosted by Peter von Bagh and Olaf MöllerThe School (Kitisenrannan koulu), Sodankylä, Midnight Sun Film Festival, 14 June 2012. Q: WHAT WAS THE FIRST MOVIE YOU SAW? A: Snow White or Cinderella. I was an avid reader of comics, and Carl Barks was among the most intelligent of their creators. I was a Saturday matinee addict.0
