Film Is About To Start is a podcast for film lovers of all ages. Hosted by Christian Wallace and Cole Nowacki, Film Is About To Start is a funny and not too serious look at contemporary and classic films.
Christian and Cole talk about "Under The Silver Lake" starring Andrew Garfield (The Amazing Spider-Man, Silence, The Social Network) and directed by David Robert Mitchell (It Follows). This movie is a love song to Hitchcock and old Hollywood, as well as nutty conspiracy theories. The guys sit back and chat about this odd, but very enjoyable film.
Christian and Cole discuss the 2002 Spike Jonze film "Adaptation" along with a few other Nicolas Cage films. They also touch on the career of Spike Jonze and his awesome (but short) feature film resume. But the most important part of the episode is when the Film Bros show up for their hot take on Adaptation. Tune in and enjoy! And thanks for listening!
Christian & Cole discuss The BATMAN (Robert Pattinson, Zoƫ Kravitz & Paul Dano) while eating the Little Caesar's "Batman" Calzony. The guys tell about their viewing experiences and what they love about the film. They also touch on comic book movies in general and superhero fatigue.
Christian Wallace and Cole Nowacki sit down and discuss David Fincher's "Seven". And a special guest shows up to read the 1995 New York Times review of Seven. Kick off your socks and find out what's in the box. Unless you're driving then keep your eyes on the road.
