    Lost classics? Modern classics? Is there a difference between the two? Well here on Film Frauds, a podcast feed dedicated to the linguistical analysis of those two very words and totally not a movie podcast hosted by 2 white dudes in their 20s (original I know) we are venturing on the very brave and noble journey of examining movies lost to the annals of time and asking "is there something we missed with these that can make them classics?" While our search for modern classics is aimed at looking at the big swings with movies, the Oscar campaigns that failed, what about the movies that never had their glory?

However, that shouldn't stop you from thinking about if The Lobster is a modern classic or not. I think that Matt employs an interesting argument for this one.

    I am scared to post this. For years I have watched the internet tear itself apart over this movie, spawning new factions of ardent supporters and vitriolic detractors. Maybe the most divisive movie of the past 10 years. Is this a modern classic? Did this spawn a new wave of online film discourse?
