After covering 74 years of Best International Film winners, nominees, and other contenders, Juan Carlos Ojano has brought The One-Inch Barrier podcast to an end. The project was a fantastic opportunity to explore world cinema through the prism of Oscar history, though it often went beyond that limit, too. It featured a varied slew of guests that spanned from critics to academics, film students, filmmakers, and even an Academy member. I was lucky enough to appear five times through its course, talking 2001, 1983, 1961, 1954, and, now, this special farewell episode.

Thank you, Juan Carlos Ojano, for this formidable podcast. Thank you to all the listeners and every world cinema lover out there.
