This week I'm joined by David Rosen of the Piecing It Together podcast to discuss Bob Byington's 2015 slacker comedy, 7 Chinese Brothers. The film stars not one but two Coppola Connectees in Jason Schwartzman and his real life French Bulldog, Arrow Schwartzman along with Eleanor Pienta, Olympia Dukakis, Tunde Adebimpe and Stephen Root. We discuss the films laid back approach to storytelling, the specific world view of the film and it's characters and if we can get on board with an unlikeable protagonist.Piecing It Together on TWITTERPiecing It Together on INSTAGRAMPiecing It Together on APPLE PODCASTSPiecing It Together on SPOTIFYPiecing It Together WEBSITEAnna Bogutskaya's 'Why Nicolas Cage is Hollywood's most misunderstood star' article for BBC CultureSUPPORT CAGED IN on PATREONBUY A PRINT NOW CAGED IN on TWITTERCAGED IN on INSTAGRAMCAGED IN on LETTERBOXDCAGED IN on FACEBOOKEMAIL CAGED IN NOWCaged In is apart of the Breadcrumbs Collective, head over to the WEBSITE to get all episodes of this show as well as other great shows.

Katrina and Geoff talk superheroes in antiquity! In this tale from the Ming Dynasty, we are introduced to the original super-humans, the Ten Chinese Brothers. Before Katrina tells their story, Geoff retells a surprisingly similar story from the Grimm's brother collection called "How Six Got on in the World." Forget the Snyder Cut, these are the superhero stories that you need to hear.
"Bring me a bad book. Like, a really good bad book." So Kate asked Betsy. Well, we don't want to give anything away but Betsy may have hit on something. If you were born in the late 70s or early 80s, the odds are good that somebody you know read it to you. And this all ties in quite closely to current discussions of picture books with racist elements that sit blithely on shelves in children's rooms anywhere. Show Notes: In case you've ever wondered what this show's recording set-up looks like, Drew, the resident Penguinologist, put together this quickie video on a whim. It's haphazard but fun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rP3f_UtbXK0 While we appreciate that The Book Hound took the time to draw a connection between the Dionne quintuplets and the publication of this book, the assertion that, "While it is possible to conclude the illustrations in The Five Chinese Brothers are ethnic stereotypes, although not everyone agrees with that, it is impossible to make a case that the text contains or implies a racist premise, unless one misreads the first sentence," is an idea that holds no water: https://thebookhound.com/2018/07/31/when-looking-alike-is-not-racism-the-five-chinese-brothers-the-dionne-quintuplets/ It is not difficult to find the Weston Woods/Scholastic Teacher's Guide for this book. Note what it says at the end: "Other book based films and videos about Chinese culture are available from Weston Woods. These include: THE STORY ABOUT PING by Marjorie Flack TIKKI TIKKI TEMBO written by Arlene Mosel and illustrated by Blair Lent". Just . . . . wow. http://teacher.scholastic.com/products/westonwoods/study_guides/the_five_chinese_brothers.pdf Finally, Betsy was able to track down the video of the boy reading Owl Babies to actual baby owls: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-i33i2VDsRU For the full Show Notes please visit: http://blogs.slj.com/afuse8production/2020/07/13/fuse-8-n-kate-the-five-chinese-brothers-by-claire-huchet-bishop-and-kurt-wiese/

Instead of reviewing the 2015 Jason Schwartzman mumblecore vehicle 7 Chinese Brothers we instead go through that actor's filmography wherein I discover I've seen 13 of his films and have NOT seen 13 of his films. BUT, much more importantly, we discover the non existent film 'Mare Bonky' (2000) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Schwartzman#Film which is listed there but doesn't have a Wiki or ANY INFO via IMDB or Google Search. A true mystery, that I now put to you good listener, cuz I frankly don't have the time.... myspacethepodcast@gmail.com is the handle if you have any clue as to what 'Mare Bonky' is.

The Five Chinese Brothers by Leo Geelong
Another What’s New to Netflix Instant!? and we are all up in your summer when we discuss three vastly different films in addition to bringing you all the latest descriptions that ScreenCrush.com won’t dish out on your July 2016 Netflix Instant queue. On this show, we aimlessly drink liquor out of a 7-11 Big Gulp with Jason Schwartzman in 7 Chinese Brothers from 2016. Then we go ahead and found the FBI with J. Edgar Hoover in the aptly titled, J. Edgar from 2011. And last, and certainly least, we dive right into the dark web and regret our decision soon thereafter in Dark Web from 2016. All of this plus Mel Gibson’s influential mullet, the perks of putting bananas in someone’s tailpipe, tons of Netflix original content, silly kids shows, and Michael Bay’s eventual unfortunate take-over of Hollywood. It’s a fun one! got a suggestion for the show?: whatsnewtonetflixinstant@gmail.com
This week, we’re kicking off our SXSW coverage on a particularly high note. That’s because this interview features arguably the best voice we’ve ever had on the podcast in Nick Offerman, and also one of the best laughs we’ve ever had on the show in actress Trieste Kelly Dunn. They are joined by acclaimed indie director Bob Byington to discuss the creation of Infinity Baby, a film that premiered to uproarious laughter at the festival last week. The film is a convergence of three separate narratives surrounding a corporation that sells a highly unusual product: babies that never age. So while Byington may have made a name for himself with naturalistic movies like 7 Chinese Brothers, the surrealistic elements of Infinity Baby’s plot act as a springboard to the intricate dialogue of screenwriter Onur Tukel and grounded performances from Offerman, Kelly Dunn and the rest of the cast. We talk about how script supervising may be the best training ground for directors, how Nick Offerman overcame being a "sucky actor," and how sometimes if you want to get your break in Hollywood, all you have to do is make sure you have fresh laundry.
Our featured movie, for this episode, is Mean Streets (1973). We also discuss Krampus (2015), Wet Hot American Summer (2001), Christmas Vacation 2 (2003), In Search of a Midnight Kiss (2007), 7 Chinese Brothers (2015), The Duke of Burgundy (2014), and more... We end the show with another round of Trailer Trivia!
Writer-director Bob Byington and actor Jason Schwartzman discuss their new film, a quirky comedy about a slacker who finds purpose in life.

The Five Chinese Brothers is an American children's book written by Claire Huchet Bishop and illustrated by Kurt Wiese. It was originally published in 1938 by Coward-McCann. The book is a retelling of a Chinese folk tale, Ten Brothers. Long ago in China lived a family with five brothers who resembled each other very closely. They each possessed a special talent. One can swallow the sea; one has an iron neck; one can stretch his legs; one can survive fire; and the last can hold his breath forever. When one of the brothers, a somehow very successful fisherman, agrees to let a young boy accompany him on his fishing trip, trouble results. Read by Mark Ferrero, Children's Librarian at Skidompha Library, 2014.
