First, we discuss is American Animals is a Modern Classic or has the chance to become one in the future. Then, we briefly discuss our thoughts on the surprisingly messy Crime 101!

Set against the sun-bleached grit of Los Angeles, the film weaves the tale of an elusive jewel thief (Chris Hemsworth) whose string of heists along the 101 freeway have mystified police.

Convinced he has found a pattern, a relentless detective (Mark Ruffalo) is closing in, raising the stakes even higher.

CRIME 101 sees AMERICAN ANIMALS director Bart Layton hop back into the heist genre by adapting Don Winslow's novella about a high-level jewel thief (Chris Hemsworth) whose meticulous style has allowed him to get away scot-free from a string of robberies along Cali's 101 freeway.However, his final score brings into the mix a set of monkey wrench characters: a morally troubled insurance saleswoman (Halle Berry), a chaotic and violent motorcycle-riding thief (Barry Keoghan) and an experienced, though disillusioned, cop: (Mark Ruffalo) the only one closing in on the jewel thief's tail.---Follow The Movies on Instagram & LetterboxdThrow a couple dollars in the tip jar!
This week on the pod, we're heading back to the Island to unpack Lost Season 4, Episode 4: “Eggtown.” It's a Kate-centric hour that blends domestic fantasy with legal thriller energy, as the flash-forwards finally start filling in the gaps of the Oceanic Six storyline. We break down what “Eggtown” reveals about Kate's need to run—even when she's trying to stay—why her off-Island life feels like a gilded cage, and how the episode uses motherhood as both redemption and self-deception. On the Island, alliances shift as Locke's camp fractures, Hurley's loyalty is tested, and Ben continues to manipulate literally everyone in the room. We dig into the moral chess match between Ben and Locke, the thematic meaning behind Kate's trial, and how this episode quietly sets the emotional stakes for the rest of Season 4.Then we shift gears into this weekend's new theatrical releases:First up, Gore Verbinski's Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die, starring Sam Rockwell, Haley Lu Richardson, and Juno Temple. We talk about Verbinski returning to large-scale genre filmmaking with a chaotic, high-concept sci-fi premise, Rockwell doing what Rockwell does best—existential panic with charm—and whether the film balances spectacle with heart or leans too far into cosmic weirdness.Next, Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights, led by Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi. We get into Fennell's gothic sensibilities, the challenge of reinterpreting such a brooding literary classic for modern audiences, and whether this version amplifies the romance, the toxicity, or both. Is it a lush prestige drama, a fever dream, or something more divisive?Finally, we break down Bart Layton's Crime 101, starring Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Halle Berry, and Barry Keoghan. A slick crime thriller with serious star power, this one promises cat-and-mouse tension and morally gray characters. We discuss whether Layton's documentary instincts sharpen the realism, how the ensemble chemistry plays out, and if the film delivers on its pulpy premise.Time travel, tragic romance, high-stakes heists—it's a packed episode.

Sergio Pérez entrevista al director y protagonista de esta película de acción sobre un "ladrón con principios" que roba joyas aseguradas.
Crime 101 - based on a novella by Don Winslow - lands in cinemas this weekend. It's a crime saga but a surprisingly focused chaaracter drama, with interconeecting threads that lead to quite the convergence in the third act of this movie. This film is being adapted by Bart Layton, who made the critically acclaimed American Animals which I was also a big fan of. Unlike that though, he's now been given a big Hollywood production with big name movie stars and a much, much bigger budget. Does Crime 101 live up to his previously acclaimed work? Find out in this review!Crime 101:Directed by: Bart LaytonScreenplay by: Bart LaytonBased on the novella by: Don WinslowProduced by: Tim Bevan, Dimitri Doganis, Eric Fellner, Benjamin Grayson, Chris Hemsworth, Bart Layton, Shane Salerno, Derin SchlesingerExecutive Producers: Joely Fether, Amelia Granger, Peter Straughan, Bergen SwansonMusic by: Blanck MassDirector of Photography: Erik Alexander WilsonEdited by: Julian Hart, Jacob Secher SchulsingerCasting by: Avy KaufmanProduction Design by: Scott DouganCostume Design by: Jenny EaganCast: Chris Hemsworth, Halle Berry, Mark Ruffalo, Barry Keoghan, Monica Barbaro, Corey HawkinsSynopsis: An elusive thief, eyeing his final score, encounters a disillusioned insurance broker at her own crossroads. As their paths intertwine, a relentless detective trails them hoping to thwart the multi-million dollar heist they are planning.
"Crime 101" is a slick and engaging thriller featuring Chris Hemsworth, Halle Berry, and Mark Ruffalo. Hemsworth portrays a jewel thief who is emotionally conflicted and determined to complete one final heist. Guided by a personal code of ethics, his character refuses to harm anyone and targets only insurance companies with his schemes. The film's impressive supporting cast includes Barry Keoghan, Monica Barbaro and Nick Nolte who all contribute to the film's strong ensemble dynamic. Bart Layton, a British documentary filmmaker, brings surprisingly taut and effective direction, allowing "Crime 101" to remain engaging even when the plot stretches believability. “Crime 101” is an entertaining action throwback. The animated sports comedy "Goat" is from producer Steph Curry, who also lends his voice to one of the characters. The story centers on a young goat who dreams of competing in "Roarball," an intense and dangerous version of full-contact basketball. The film boasts a talented voice cast, including Caleb McGlaughlin from “Stranger Things,” David Harbour, Jennifer Hudson, Jelly Roll, and Gabrielle Union. "Goat" is a predictable, but family-friendly bit of escapism. "Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die" is a high-concept, sci-fi comedy that combines the time-loop antics of "Groundhog Day" with the energy of "Terminator." Sam Rockwell stars as a time traveler who repeatedly journeys back from the future, attempting to save humanity from the impending threat of artificial intelligence. Director Gore Verbinski seems to draw inspiration from the eccentric style of the Oscar-winning “Everything Everywhere All at Once.” The result is a smart and wildly imaginative film, even if it sometimes struggles with pacing and knowing when to wrap things up.

Emerald Fennell heads to the wild and windy moors for a cinematic storm of obsession, repression, lots of rain and, well… let's just say nobody's getting this worked up about the weather alone. Controversially starring Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff and Margot Robbie as Catherine, it's already dividing the critics, so where does Mark stand? The lascivious literary adaptation's director is our guest this week. She joins Simon to talk about the story's sensuality, toxicity, and how much glaring, breathing, and storm-lashed longing is too much glaring, breathing, and storm-lashed longing? She tells us how it felt to realise her teenage dream of bringing her vision for this classic to the screen, and why its tale of love, revenge, and emotional chaos still gets pulses racing. Plus reviews of three more of the week's cinematic offerings. There's Crime 101, Bart Layton's sleek thriller pairing Chris Hemsworth's precision jewel thief with Mark Ruffalo's relentlessly pursuing detective, and proving once again that nobody in LA should ever relax. Whistle brings supernatural horror and the world's worst extracurricular activity, as students discover that cursed ancient Aztec artefacts are best left well alone. And Little Amélie offers something altogether gentler — an animated adaptation of Amélie Nothomb's autobiographical story of childhood, identity, and wonder.

2026 is off to a great start and still continuing with the latest film from Bart Layton!
There's a particular kind of confidence required to make a modern Los Angeles heist movie without flinching at the shadow of “Heat.” It's the cinematic elephant in the room, the reference point that inevitably looms over any story involving meticulous thieves, dogged cops, and asphalt‑level tension. With “Crime 101,” filmmaker Bart Layton acknowledges that lineage without trying to wrestle it. Instead, he builds something adjacent: a grounded, contemporary crime film that uses the genre as a delivery system for deeper questions about identity, status, and obsession.Based on the novella by Don Winslow, “Crime 101” follows a precise, disciplined jewel thief (played by Chris Hemsworth) whose carefully calibrated life begins to fracture as an obsessive LAPD detective (played by Mark Ruffalo) closes in. Sound familiar "Heat" fans? Luckily, we also have other stories running parallel, like Halle Berry as Sharon, a woman boxed in by institutional disrespect and professional diminishment, slowly realizing that the systems she has played by were never designed to reward her. The ensemble is stacked with Barry Keoghan, Monica Barbaro, Corey Hawkins, Nick Nolte, and more, but the film's real engine is tone: tense, patient, and uninterested in clean moral answers.READ MORE: ‘Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie': Matt Johnson & Jay McCarrol On Time Travel, Friendship, The Show's 3rd Season, & Filming Without Permits [The Discourse Podcast]Joining The Discourse for two separate interviews, Layton, Hemsworth, and Berry dug into how “Crime 101” consciously avoids Hollywood shorthand while still delivering a propulsive, white‑knuckle ride.
Our latest guests on Soundtracking are Bart Layton and composer Benjamin Power - AKA Blanck Mass - who join us to discuss their collaboration on Bart's new film Crime 101, which he wrote and directed.

Recorded live, as is tradition, at Kings Place, London, on Friday January 9, it's a near three-hour odyssey of film-related fun, as Chris Hewitt, Helen O'Hara, James Dyer, and Ben Travis talk about movie news (Avengers Doomsday trailers! Avatar box office! Tangled casting!), review Hamnet, Giant, and Song Sung Blue, and then take questions from our capacity crowd. And we have more guests than you could shake an Infinity Stone at, as Corin Hardy and Dafne Keen, director and star of new horror movie Whistle, drop by and try to kill our audience; director Bart Layton tells Alex Godfrey all about his new movie, Crime 101; Ben Wheatley returns to the live pod to chat with Beth Webb about his new mind-melting movie, Bulk; 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple stars Alfie Williams, Erin Kellyman, and Chi Lewis-Parry drop by to talk with Ben Travis about their infected follow-up; and the Russo Brothers themselves, Joe and Anthony, stop by (Joe on Zoom from Los Angeles) to say as much as they can about Avengers Doomsday without giving anything away. The guest interviews section runs from 50:22 - 2:22:36 [approx]. Thanks, as ever, to our guests for being so gracious with their time, everyone who made it happen, Kings Place, DNA for the great spot prizes, and you guys for supporting us through 700 episodes.

On the afternoon of June 19, 1994, thirteen-year-old Nicholas Barclay left his home in San Antonio, Texas to play basketball with some friends. Hours later, he called home to ask his mother for a ride, but was told he would have to walk home, but Nicholas never came back. His mother reported him missing and an investigation was started, but it quickly stalled when there was no evidence of what happened to Nicholas.Three years passed and one day, out of the blue, the family received a call from the US Embassy. Nicholas had been discovered in Spain, they said. He had endured terrible trauma at the hands of a human trafficking ring and he was desperate to come home. The family was elated and eagerly welcomed Nicholas back into their home. But to some of the people involved in the boy's return to Texas, there were just too many things about his story that didn't quite add up.Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesAssociated Press. 1998.

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Barry Keoghan, originally episode 226 from 2018-08-29.Below is the original writeup for context - but as you will know, the years since this was recorded have seen Barry find new audiences while revealing all sorts of new levels to his skills and talents. So enjoy this flashback to the 2018 era Barry! Note - this writeup was for the original episode where Barry shared it with Bart Layton - just a quick FYI.–––––––––––––––––––––––––An amazing chance to catch up with the pair as Pip rocks it tag-team style, starting the podcast with director Bart Layton and concluding halfway through with actor Barry Keoghan. Needless to say, with two sides of the story covered you get a comprehensive and detailed look at a unique pocket of the movie industry, a fascinating side of the indie film world and certainly longer than a regular press junket. You'll get to hear about the realities of making and marketing a movie in a world of cinema and Netflix (or dare I say, cinema versus Netflix), the differences in those two worlds as well as the merits of both, the ludicrous nature of the premise of ‘American Animals' and how it works as a film, how Barry is a grade A actor without formal training and how acting was not a conventional pursuit being where he is from. Naturally there is more besides but that's down to YOU, dear listener, to unravel and enjoy. Which you shall. The recording is a touch on the reverberant side, which you might pick up on, but in headphones your ears will rapidly attune and all will be well. Now go see their filmographies already!PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureIMDBSALTBURN TRAILERBIRD TRAILERBANSHEES OF INISHERIN TRAILERPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITTERPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

The main event is director Bart Layton's 2018 True Story Art Heist- American Animals. Leo and Charles discuss the films mixed in documentary style, whether it was a good heist to pull off in the first place, and why you can't assume someone is joking when they talk about a pulling off a heist.
