Austin picks the first film in the Women Director's category! Jesus' Son (1999) Directed by Alison Maclean

I'm gonna level with you: I, Jason, love this movie. It has been my favorite movie since I saw it in the theater in 1999. This is the reason Billy Crudup is on the list of filmographies to cover. Do you want to laugh about dead bunnies? See a guy with a knife in his eye? Watch people chomp pills until they're a mess or see a very sad overdose? Watch this movie and then listen to us talk about it. Alison Maclean, Denis Johnson and Elizabeth Cuthrell crafted this hilarious and sad world we watch Crudup slop through along with Denis Leary, Samantha Morton, Jack Black, Michael Shannon, and Holly Hunter.

It's Easter again and Phil brings 1999's Jesus' Son off the shelf for discussion this week. Ottawa born film maker Alison Maclean's amazing film featuring stellar performances by Billy Crudup and Samantha Morton. Phil find this film just as emotionally moving and beautiful as he did the first time he saw it. Dave finds out his brained is fused but managed to find some of the ideas to be thought-provoking and worth another viewing. Share your thoughts with us.

Join us in the adventures of FH with this week's Lions Gate Film JESUS' SON (2000)! Michael Snydel is back with us to discuss this little seen Alison Maclean directed film, the many character actors that populate it and of course... the soundtrack for TITAN A.E.

In this episode, I talk about Todd Haynes's 1995 film, "Safe." It stars Julianne Moore in her first collaboration with Haynes. Moore plays Carol White, a California housewife who comes down with a mysterious illness that could be a result of the chemicals and toxins in the environment. When her doctor and mainstream medicine offer her no help, she seeks relief and answers at a New Age treatment center called Wrenwood that espouses individualist self-help ideas. I talk about my own struggle with chronic health issues, how women are often not believed by doctors, why the film remains so relevant to the modern world we live in, and I also critique self-help messages.

Named one of the year’s best films by The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and Roger Ebert, Jesus’ Son by Alison Maclean tackles the surreal, disjointed narrative first created by author Denis Johnson. F**khead, played admirably by Billy Crudup, meets a woman named Michelle (played by Samantha Morton) and their romance is as kinetic and exciting as it is destructive. An impressive cast provides memorable performances, include standout moments by Jack Black, Denis Leary, Will Patton, Michael Shannon, Holly Hunter, and Dennis Hopper.  Topics: The look & tone of the film, the overt symbolism, the pros & cons of using verbatim dialogue from the source material, Denis Johnson’s cameo, the meaning of a cartoon octopus, the over-the-top drug sequence, and the potential message about the author that movie may be trying to convey.

Denis Johnson’s landmark short story collection Jesus’ Son tells the story of a drug-addict searching for meaning and purpose in life. The book’s erratic, surreal style lends itself to a truly memorable read as the narrator (F**khead) recounts the story of his life filled with robbery, sex, murder, and more. He struggles throughout, hitting rock bottom over and over again before landing on a path of possible recovery. Stories Covered: Car Crash While Hitchhiking, Two Men, Out on Bail, Dundun, Work, Emergency, Dirty Wedding, The Other Man, Happy Hour, Steady Hands at Seattle General, Beverly Home. Topics: how autobiographical is the book, the search for meaning, potential meanings behind the title of the book, Luke talks about his own car accident, Georgie’s desire to be heroic, Luke & James’s trip to Seattle, FH wanting to be saved by the women in his life, and the disconnect between the broken and the well-adjusted of this world. Join us next week for Jesus’ Son the film directed by Alison Maclean and starring Billy Crudup, Samantha Horton, Jack Black, Michael Shannon, Denis Leary, Holly Hunter, and Dennis Hopper!

Director Susanne Bier discusses her film, Bird Box, with fellow director Alison Maclean. Based on the novel by Josh Malerman, the film takes place in a world where an unseen force has decimated Earth's human population, and the only thing the survivors know for sure is if you see it, you die. Against these odds a woman and her children attempt a perilous journey though the woods and down a river to find sanctuary, but in order to stay alive, they must complete the trip while blindfolded.
