A podcast hosted by Je'vhan Gordon and Bobby DeVore where we more or less stick to one topic the entire episode, or we try to, more or less, no guarantees.
We're taking a look into Liverpool with the help of Terrance Davies' first two stand-alone feature films.
Out of chronological order but still dense, we cover Jon Bois' first and third sports documentaries.
We're still covering Spielberg, don't you worry.
Wrasslin' with Tashlin. Bobby had never seen a Jerry Lewis film, so we watched these two classic pieces of satirical American cinema.
Will success spoil Rock Hunter? The girl can't help it. Well, in reverse I guess.
Abel Ferrara's 1979 thriller about a struggling artist breaking mentally to drill people to death with his handy Porto-Pack.
Halloween. A Horror movie. We're doing Five Nights at Freddy's by visiting our preferred Freddy.
In honor of his recent passing, we're exploring William Friedkin's filmography. The very controsversial Cruising from 1980 and his 2011 Killer Joe.
Now we get meaty in the waters of Steven Spielberg. The absolute classic, defining a genre, Jaws is next in line for Spielberg's filmography. Then, the gorgeous extraterestrial film that never leaves Earth. No not E.T.
We're diving into Spielberg's filmography, starting with his first feature length Duel. Duel originally aired as a part of a weekly ABC series, and was later adapted for theatrical release. Then, we steal a car and kidknap a cop and drive cross-country to take back our baby.
This was also supposed to be uploaded for LGBTQ+ month but again, Bobby has failed you.
The first film written and directed by a Black Lesbian gets posted late for LGBTQ+ Pride Month. It's a shame. We're sorry. Mainly Bobby. Bobby's sorry and responsible.
We were inspired by Alex Ross Perry to watch something sarcastic and cynical and we were angry at the fact we couldn't make it to a showing of How to Blow Up a Pipeline and the petroleum industry, of course.
We're beginning our bust down the block of Stephen Spielberg's filmography with our thesis episode on his heavily embelished autobiopic.
The Color Wheel, Listen Up Phillip, and Her Smell all have common threads, minus the *ncest of The Color Wheel.
This is the second part of our review of the third season of Twin Peaks.
This is our coverage of the return of Twin Peaks, as a portion of our David Lynch series.
In a change of pace, we're getting this one out relatively fast. We saw Oppenheimer and Barbie.
We watch a rather bleak film directed by Clint Eastwood. Based on the actual events of Jewell's life we see a man save a substantial amount of people by being the right person at the right time have to dodge the media and the FBI painting him as the bomber of the 1996 Summer Olympic Games.
We diverged from our list to dip our toes into the world of reviewing musical films.
Wong Kar-Wai's 2000 romantic drama is beautiful and set in 1960's Hong Kong.
Continuing our Lynch Filmography series, we watch his Hollywood delusion.
Todd Haynes' 2019 legal drama let us all know we have plastic in our bodies, our blood, and now our entire existence. Thanks to years of hiding this information, the chemical companies and factories involved in the manufacture of plastics were able to produce a world-ruining amount of plastic by polluting the surrounding land and the blood of the surrounding communities. We love Mark Ruffalo.
A late upload that was set to be at the end of Black History month, we watched F. Gary Gray's crime drama action film from 1996.
Hype Williams', arguably the best director of music videos of alltime, first feature length film shows the nuances of black male existence at the turn of the millenium.
For Black History Month, we're watching popular films of notable black directors. What better way to start than with the most iconic of Spike Lee joints.
Alex Diop's first fictional or first non-documentary film, at least not direct documentary was screened at our local university's art museum. The connection the director, as the only black person and only person with the same heritage as the defendant, has with the woman on trial for the death of her child both acknowledges what is able to be related to in another person and how you can never truly understand someone. The film is based on the trial of Fabienne Kabou and Diop's own experience of witnessing and beginning a documentary on the trial. What initially was going to be a documentary of the trial became a dive into the life and struggles of the director, being of the same decent of the defendant and becoming a mother herself.
This donkey filled doublefeature continues our coverage of Korine's filmography with his Dogma95 certified Julien Donkey-Boy. We also were privelged to attend a screening of Jerzy Skolimowski's EO, which has a real donkey, boy.
After watching her performance in Gummo, we decided to dig into Linda Manz's filmography.
Our bunny ears at their straightest and our jaws slightly cocked we watch Korine's first feature film.
Hey, just looking out. This is about abortion. Abortion in the 1950's.
A lot can happen in six years. Look at us. Six years ago we were just establishing our show. Now we're still getting the same low and withering numbers.
Leigh's 1990 film about the perils of the restaurant business and employed unhappiness doesn't get ruined by a grown man acting like an 80's skate bro in London.
The beginning of our bleak trip into Mike Leigh's London.
Our fleeting return to reviewing Kurosawa's filmography includes the 1963 procedural drama.
Getting back to our regular Film Club list, we watched Akira Kurosawa's 1957 Macbeth adaptation.
Our second Halloween episode this year stems from a question on the first Halloween episode. Is Zombie's The Devil's Rejects scary? Also, his Munsters movie got made.
It's spooky season and we celebrate with some Universal classics.
It's Ingmar's 1982 epic. Very red, very Victorian, very Swedish.
In our continuing Bergman series we watched some of his films from the 60's and 70's.
Tarkovsky's 1982 film is radioactive and we grow a third limb to watch it.
