Dr. Jim Bramson interviews his esteemed colleague and good mate - Jeff Cohen. Jeff Cohen is an articulate, deeply knowledgeable couples therapist with a background as unique as his approach. Before becoming a therapist, Jeff trained as an architect—and that foundation in design informs both his artistry as a visual artist and his craftsmanship as a clinician. In this episode, Jeff shares his journey from blueprints to breakthroughs and offers an inside look at his work with couples through the PACT model and the Hakomi Method. He reflects on what couples should look for in therapy, what actually works best in the process, and what aspiring couples therapists ought to keep in mind. Jeff is brilliant, candid, and full of wisdom—you'll walk away with a deeper appreciation for the art and architecture of couples therapy.And then there's the Minnesota trivia segment. Let's just say Jeff nailed the politicians and Bob Dylan but forgot Prince, Judy Garland, the Coen Brothers, and Al Franken. Even so, his Minneapolis roots and mastery of the field are beyond question. Enjoy this rich, insightful, and slightly playful conversation!WCMI networking group A networking group for mindfulness-focused clinicians dedicated to learning together & collaborating for more information click here

What do you get when you combine corrupt cops, a silent Chuck Norris, a robot tank named the Prowler, and one of the most confusingly gritty films of the '80s? You get Code of Silence (1985) and you get this week's episode of Born to Watch. Our first (and possibly last) Chuck Norris movie, this Code Of Silence (1985) Review was one of our hardest yet.Originally meant to be a deep dive into the snow-covered world of Fargo, the team made a bold mid-week pivot. Why? Although the Coen Brothers' classic has its place in cinema history, it lacks denim, moustaches, or Chuck Norris delivering silent justice with a cold stare. This week's episode is a celebration and interrogation of what many believe to be Chuck Norris's best actual movie: Code of Silence.Hosting this round is Whitey, joined by the returning G-Man (fresh off a brief sabbatical) and everyone's favourite intern, Will the Work Experience Kid, who's finally found a film with more fists than subtext. Together, the trio dig into the film's layers (yes, there are some), highlights its absurdities (many), and wrestles with the biggest question of all: was Chuck actually acting in this?Chuck Norris stars as Eddie Cusack, a no-nonsense Chicago cop caught in the middle of a brutal gang war and a police department riddled with corruption. When Cusack refuses to back up a dirty cop, he's iced out by his fellow officers and forced to take on the criminals, the corrupt cops, and a killer in a trench coat... completely solo. Well, almost solo. He does have The Prowler, a remote-controlled robot tank that can shoot gas grenades, blow up doors, and completely derail the realism of the film's final act.In classic Born to Watch fashion, the boys break it down across all the key angles:The Plot Whitey leads the charge, recapping the film's surprisingly tight (yet sometimes baffling) storyline. The team debates Eddie Cusack's moral choices, questions whether Chuck understood his own lines, and marvels at the film's commitment to making stairwells more perilous than actual shootouts.The Performances G-Man lays out the argument that this is Chuck Norris's best performance, not just his best movie. With fewer lines and more brooding, Norris actually builds a character with a code. Will's take? He still prefers action over nuance but admits Chuck's stone-faced stare works better here than in Missing in Action or Delta Force.Direction & Style Andrew Davis gets some serious love this episode. Before The Fugitive made him a household name, Code of Silence showed he could stage gritty action, squeeze tension out of silence, and give Chuck an actual platform to do more than kick things. The cinematography gives Chicago a grimy, lived-in feel, and the pacing is tighter than expected until the Prowler shows up and explodes all sense of realism.The Prowler Will's favourite part of the episode, and the film, is the laughably amazing Prowler, a piece of proto-RoboCop tech that somehow exists in 1985 and gets deployed by one man for reasons no one can explain. Does it break the movie? Maybe. Do we love it anyway? Absolutely.The Fashion It wouldn't be Born to Watch without taking a closer look at the outfits. Norris's iconic turtleneck/sweater/denim combo gets a lot of airtime, as does the question of whether a moustache makes you more believable as a cop, or just more '80s.And of course, no episode would be complete without:The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly segment (with bonus Prowler praise)Listener shout-outs and rogue OnlyFans tangentsA few wildly off-topic theories about whether Chuck could've gone full prestige actor if he kept working with directors like DavisJOIN THE CONVERSATION Is Code of Silence Chuck Norris's best dramatic role? Should cops with robot tanks be allowed in stakeouts? Was the Prowler basically RoboCop before RoboCop?Drop us a voicemail at

ACADEMY AWARD WINNER FOR BEST PICTURE!! No Country for Old Men Full Movie Reaction Watch Along:   / thereelrejects   Visit https://huel.com/rejects to get 15% off your order Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ With Ethan Coen's "Honey Don't" out now & Josh Brolin garnering rave reviews in "Weapons," Andrew & Aaron are BACK to give their No Country for Old Men Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Breakdown, & Spoiler Review! The Coen Brothers' 2007 Academy Award-winning thriller No Country for Old Men comes to our channel as Aaron Alexander & Andrew Gordon dive into a first-hand Reaction & Review of one of the most iconic modern Western crime dramas. Based on the novel by Cormac McCarthy and directed by Joel & Ethan Coen (Fargo, The Big Lebowski), the film follows the deadly chain reaction set off when Vietnam veteran Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin – Sicario, Deadpool 2) stumbles upon a drug deal gone wrong and takes off with a suitcase full of cash. His decision puts him on the radar of Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem – Skyfall, Vicky Cristina Barcelona), the cold-blooded hitman whose coin toss scenes have become some of the most chilling and famous moments in film history. Also starring Tommy Lee Jones (The Fugitive, Men in Black) as Sheriff Ed Tom Bell, who struggles with the moral decay and unstoppable violence he sees in modern crime, and Woody Harrelson (True Detective, Natural Born Killers) as Carson Wells, a bounty hunter caught in the crossfire, the movie blends psychological tension with brutal realism. With unforgettable scenes such as Chigurh's silenced shotgun and the iconic “call it” gas station confrontation, No Country for Old Men remains a haunting meditation on fate, chance, and justice. Aaron & Andrew break down the performances, themes, shocking ending, and the Coens' masterful direction that cemented this film as a modern classic.

Send us a textSPECIAL NOTE: SEASON 15 OF THE GOOD, THE POD AND THE UGLY CELEBRATES THE USE OF THE PRACTICAL AND DIGITAL EFFECT KNOWN AS THE SQUIB. IRL GUN VIOLENCE IS INTOLERABLE AND RENOUNCED BUT... CINEMATIC VIOLENCE WILL BE CELEBRATED IN A WAY THAT MAY DISTURB SOME LISTENERS.  What's the rumpus? This week TGTPTU gives the Coen Brothers movie classic MILLER'S CROSSING (1990) the treatment as part of its Squib Season, see.  Lensed by Barry Sonnenfeld in his last frolic as the brothers' cinematographer, Ethan Coen told the man with a golden eye that Miller's Crossing should be a handsome film about men in hats, and Sonnenfeld delivers the goods with one spectacularly shot period piece from the Prohibition Era.  The picture stars Gabriel Byrne as Tom Reagan, the hard-drinking, harder-gambling Irish consigliere who knows all the angles, who's having an affair with his boss's skirt Verna Bernbaum (played by Marcia Gay Harden, who shortly after filming would originate the role of Harper Pitt in Tony Kushner's two-part play Angels in America, see Season 7 of TGTPTU for more!).  Pod favorite John Turturro plays her brother Bernie, a conniving low-life crook who causes the friction in the ranks and can turn on the waterworks when needed. Jon Polito plays a loving dad allergic to the high-hat and with his right-hand J. E. Freeman playing the Dane (same year he'd star in Wild at Heart, see Season 4) they plan to take over the town from Albert Finney in one of his two roles as Tom's boss Leo (the other appearance uncredited, spoilers during the episode for this Easter egg). Also, director and occasional second-unit-for-the-Coens-director Sam Raimi (and, can you believe it, brother of actor Ted Raimi from Hard Target covered earlier this Squib Games season!) shows up to plug a speakeasy patron grabbing air before himself getting gatted. And if you still haven't had your fill, at this buffet of talent we even get a smattering of Steve Buscemi delivering ratatat dialogue for a scene.   This ep, Jack brings the book report, Thomas the Danish facts, Ken reenacts the experience of watching Miller's Crossing with him by dropping movie quotes throughout the episode, Ryan brings up Gabriel Byrne's acting chops, and all four hosts harmonize on the greater good.   Now get outta here. You're stinking up the joint.  THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Bluesky: @goodpodugly.bsky.socialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gLetterboxd (follow us!):Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias

Miller's Crossing (1990) was chosen by supporter Justin, and it stands as one of the most stylish entries in the Coen Brothers' early catalogue. After the breakout success of Blood Simple and the quirky charm of Raising Arizona, the Coens set their sights on the gangster genre, crafting a film inspired by classic Dashiell Hammett novels such as The Glass Key and Red Harvest. Their vision was to make a thoughtful, atmospheric crime drama that combined sharp, layered dialogue with the kind of morally tangled storytelling that would become their trademark.The journey to get there wasn't exactly smooth. Midway through writing, the brothers hit a creative wall so severe they shelved the script and instead made Barton Fink before returning to finish Miller's Crossing. Filming in New Orleans gave the movie its richly authentic period feel, with Barry Sonnenfeld's moody cinematography and Carter Burwell's haunting score elevating the production. While the film didn't set the box office on fire, its craftsmanship and style have since earned it a devoted following and cemented its reputation as one of the Coens' most accomplished works.If you enjoy the show, we have a Patreon, so become a supporter ⁠⁠here⁠⁠.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:⁠⁠NordVPN⁠⁠⁠⁠NordPass⁠⁠Trailer Guy Plot SummaryIn a city of power, deception, and danger… One man navigates the shadows of loyalty and betrayal.From the visionary Coen Brothers comes Miller's Crossing — a stylish, tension-packed journey through the underworld, where every word is a weapon, every glance a threat, and nothing is as it seems. With danger lurking around every corner, alliances are tested, and the rules of the game are rewritten in blood and cunning.Miller's Crossing - loyalty has a price… and betrayal has consequences.Fun FactsMiller's Crossing (1990) was directed by Joel and Ethan Coen, following their cult hit Raising Arizona (1987).The film is considered one of the greatest gangster movies of the 1990s, heavily inspired by Dashiell Hammett's novels The Glass Key and Red Harvest.During production, the Coen Brothers experienced writer's block and paused to create Barton Fink (1991) before returning to finish Miller's Crossing.The title Miller's Crossing refers to the forested setting where some of the movie's most pivotal scenes take place.Cinematographer Barry Sonnenfeld gave the movie its iconic noir-inspired look, marking his last collaboration with the Coens before moving on to direct The Addams Family.The haunting score by Carter Burwell is infused with Irish folk influences, including themes based on the traditional piece Lament for Limerick.Despite a production budget of around $10–14 million, the movie only grossed about $5 million at the box office.Over the years, Miller's Crossing has been critically reappraised and is now celebrated as one of the Coen Brothers' finest works.The film is often ranked alongside Coen classics such as Fargo (1996) and No Country for Old Men (2007).Today, it's seen as a masterclass in neo-noir storytelling and has influenced a new generation of filmmakers in the gangster genre.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

O Brother, Where Art Thou? is a satirical comedy-drama musical film released in 2000, written, produced, and directed by The Coen Brothers. The film starred George Clooney, John Turturro, Tim Blake Nelson, Holly Hunter, John Goodman, and CHARLES DURNING in a 1930s Mississippi setting. In which a trio of escaped convicts travel across the American South in search of a supposed buried treasure, as Clooney attempts to re-connect with his divorced wife and children. The story was heavily influenced by Preston Sturges' film Sullivan's Travels, while also borrowing loosely from Homer's epic Greek poem The Odyssey, and featured a backdrop of period folk music, produced and arranged by T-Bone Burnett, and featured performances by Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris, Ralph Stanley, John Hartford, and numerous others. The film was a major box office success in its time, earned major critical praise for its sharp writing and gorgeous autumnal aesthetics, while its soundtrack swept the 44th annual Grammy Awards.On a rare, guest-free episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott take in a viewing of O Brother, Where Art Thou? and are thoroughly delighted. (Not to give away the ending of the podcast.) Join them as they ruminate on ancient brands of hair cream, point out innumerable Big Lebowski references that are totally there, engage in time-honored bouts of fisticuffsmanship, and bask in the majesty of CHARLES DURNING.#HotDurnAutumn...with Lilz & Scott!

Gather your bolt pistols and money satchels, friend-os! Andrew's pick for the film that made him a cinephile is the Coen Brothers' violent noir/western No Country for Old Men. He and Joshua partake in a ramble about evil, age, philosophy, movie tattoos, and most importantly, which one of them lost the most out of a coin toss (spoiler: it was Andrew). And then stayed tuned as they bring up One More Thing, going into the apocalyptic zoo novel The Island of Lost Things by Emma Sloley and the latest Big Thief album Double Infinity. Next week, special guest and The Take-Up contributor Cliff Froelich guides the hosts out of the west and into the dark, scuzzy streets of 70s New York with Taxi Driver, the classic Scorsese thriller that led to Froelich's own cinematic awakening.

Nick joins the show for the very first time. Jake talks to him about theatre, film, and eventually, the sometimes forgotten Coen Brothers classic, The Hudsucker Proxy. How does it hold up? And why is Jennifer Jason Leigh the best part?

Tim Blake Nelson is a celebrated actor, writer, and director. His nearly 100 screen credits include “The Thin Red Line,” “Lincoln,” “The Ballad of Buster Scruggs,” “Watchmen,” and “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” For his latest, the independent film “Bang Bang,” he plays an aging boxer whose glory days are long past. On this episode, he details how his process has changed by comparing the patience he has now to his approach for “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” where “fear inspired hubris” fueled him. He explains why it's the actor's job to retranslate poor direction, how his thirst for knowledge benefits his work, why he shows up on day one knowing the entire script inside and out. Plus he tells a few interesting stories about the Coen Brothers, hilarious ones about Terrence Malick, inspiring ones about directing Amanda Seyfried, and much much more. Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast from  Filmmaker Magazine. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft.  Follow Back To One on Instagram

In 2023, I wrote a screenplay for a feature film in less than a week. I made a video about it for Aralan, my friend JJ's peer-to-peer learning site. Since then, that same screenplay went through another four drafts (which took almost a year). And then, it was re-written into a TV pilot (which took another 6 months).Now, two years later, both scripts sit in folders on my computer, along with all the other unproduced .fdx files I've worked years on. Like my fellow filmmakers, I'm feeling frustrated and scared about our industry. I'm discouraged and tired. But even though I'm lingering in uninspired burnout, I did want to revisit the Lynn of 2023 who felt compelled to finish a story. For no other reason but to write it into existence.So I asked JJ if I could share my class publicly, in hopes that it might energize one of us to keep creating.The full video is above; here is the course intro:This is not the first time that I wrote a script this quickly (it's the third). In fact, the very first one I ever wrote, I Will Make You Mine, I finished in a week. I know this is rare. I know that not everyone works this quickly; even for myself! I don't always write this fast.I have written several scripts since, and not all of them come together like this. But because I was able to do it, I had so many people reach out and ask me how. I thought about it, and I decided that I would make a video for all of you to share my process a little bit. Because much to my surprise, I guess I have a process! I mean, I must if I've done this three times.I still have a little bit of imposter syndrome calling myself a “writer.” I am not a member of the WGA. I've never been paid to write, and I don't follow a lot of writing rules you read about in books like Save the Cat.That said, I Will Make You Mine did end up getting produced and made and has a 100% Rotten Tomato rating. So it's not like I'm not a writer.This is how I wrote a feature film in one week or less, not how you should write a film.Unlike a program where you have somebody like the Coen Brothers or Spike Lee teaching you how to write a screenplay, (which is great — I mean, I definitely want to know more about that process), this is more peer-to-peer. This is like we're sitting in my office, which we are — having a cup of coffee together (or a giant tumbler of water, in my case).So relax and let me tell you a little bit more about my process.My aim is to keep these posts sponsor-free, so if you'd like to support me directly with a paid subscription, that would be very helpful.

It only took us until season thirteen, but bros, strap in, because we're FINALLY doing a Coen Brothers movie!! That's right, today we're diving into the madcap, eccentric, delightful romp that kicked off Nicolas Cage's movie-stardom and made us all realize that quite literally everyone can be softened by an exceptionally cute baby -- Raising Arizona! Along the way, we discuss the brothers' distinctive directorial style, the safety concerns of two cinephiles who also happen to be babysitters, and the absolutely unbeatable star quality of this dynamite cast.

“What do you do when a 300-pound wild boar crashes through your sliding glass door, eats shards of glass, and stares you down for 45 minutes?”In one of the most bizarre and hysterical segments ever on The Ben and Skin Show, hosts Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray unpack a jaw-dropping Florida news story that feels like it was written by the Coen Brothers.Meet Edward Wells, a puzzle-loving senior citizen whose quiet afternoon is shattered when his dog Bailey bursts in trailing blood—followed by a wild boar that explodes through the door like a shotgun blast. What follows is a surreal standoff involving:A walker-wielding old manA boar eating glass in the living roomDeputies trying to lasso the beastA cop screaming and fleeing the sceneAnd a boar that's still on the loose

Oscar-winning writer/director Ethan Coen (No Country For Old Men, Fargo) and wrtier/producer/editor Tricia Cooke (The Big Lebowski, O Brother Where Art Thou) collaborate on their second film together for the second year in a row after 2024's Drive Away Dolls.  And once again, their film stars Emmy-nominee Margaret Qualley (Maid, Fosse/Verdon, The Substance) who this time is playing the titular Honey Donohue, who is a private detective investigating multiple murders around Bakersfield....could those crimes be connected?  And do they all lead to the local corrupt preacher Drew Devlin played by Chris Evans? (Captain America trilogy, Knives Out, Sunshine) And just how does a local cop named MG Falcone (Aubrey Plaza) whom Honey strikes up a romance with exactly factor into all of this?  Let's find out if even just one Coen brother can keep the magic going....  Host: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a textSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Send us a text In this episode, we head to the snow-covered Midwest to dive into Joel and Ethan Coen's 1996 masterpiece Fargo. More than just a crime story, Fargo blends dark comedy, brutal violence, and Midwestern politeness into a uniquely Coen Brothers cocktail. We'll unpack the unforgettable performances of Frances McDormand, William H. Macy, and Steve Buscemi, explore how the film's “true story” framing plays with the audience, and discuss why Marge Gunderson has become one of cinema's most iconic characters. Along the way, we'll examine the movie's chilling themes of greed, morality, and human folly—and how Fargo manages to balance all that darkness with a quirky, offbeat sense of humor. Nick Leshi's City of Kik PodcastSupport the showBrowse the 33/24 Archives: Check out the backroom!

This one's for the P-Hounds only — and wow, do we get feral. JD retells the legend of a friend who ate 36 Krispy Kremes in a single day — a tale of gluttony, shame, and heroic replenishment runs. We spiral into Donut Daddy mukbang hell (yes, he sticks his fingers in them). Rachel relives flight trauma with a sweaty cigar-stained kilt man and a bag-bin bandit who deserved the death penalty. Plus: panic-ordering salads at LaGuardia, pit stain reveals, and an AMA that somehow turns into a Coen Brothers bus-driver mobster pitch. It's chaos. It's gross. It's oddly arousing (don't ask). It's Thumb War at its most unhinged. If you're reading this and you're not a Patron? You're missing the donut dump of the century. Subscribe to our Patreon! http://bit.ly/44Mo8xU Send us an email!

We just watched Honey Don't — twice — and still can't believe how bad it was. Directed by Ethan Coen and co-written with Tricia Cooke, the film stars Margaret Qualley, Aubrey Plaza, Chris Evans, and Charlie Day in what should have been a stylish neo-noir. Instead, it's a messy, over-sexed, and painfully misguided movie that left us frustrated, confused, and honestly kind of angry. In this episode of Thumb War, we break down exactly why Honey Don't doesn't work — from the awkward sex scenes, one-note characters, and forced political gags, to the wasted performances of a stellar cast. We also compare it to Drive-Away Dolls, Bound, and even classic Coen Brothers films like Fargo and No Country for Old Men to highlight just how far this one misses the mark. Spoilers throughout. We also talk representation, Ethan & Joel Coen's split, and why this film feels like a wasted “blank check” project. If you saw Honey Don't, did you hate it as much as we did? Send us an email!

Hello everyone! It's been a minute but we are back with another episode selected by vote from out discord community! We will be talking about one of the greatest films of the 21st century (according to a New York Times polll,) No Country For Old Men, directed by the Joel and Ethan Coen, also known as the Coen Brothers. It is the first film we have covered from the acclaimed duo, and to make this episode extra special, we have a guest that is a big Coen Brothers fan!Not only did the film win 4 Oscars during the 80th Academy Awards ceremony, more importantly, the film left a resounding impression on audiences at the time, particularly the three of us on this episode. We talk about how the use of violence, lack of score, and the motivated cinematography courtesy of the great Roger Deakins elevated what we could expect from a movie. Also, who can forget the chilling performance from Javier Bardem, creating the iconic hitman, Anton Chigurh, doing to bob cuts what Jaws did to sharks.We talk about the differences between the novel by Cormac McCarthy and the film, and how the camera work, performances, and costume design elevates the words from the novel into the visual language of film. We get into how the Coen Brothers work together, and talk about why they are no longer making films together. We talk about their style and what makes them some of the greatest film makers in modern cinema. Also, speaking of cinema, our guest Aaron is a professional cinematographer! He provides insight on the craft and its use in the film, and what makes it one of his favorites. As casual movie goers sometimes it is easy to forget the actual work it takes to make a film look the way it does. We don't think about why a particular shot is used for a particular line of dialogue, or how are the lights placed to create that shot, or why any of it matters. Yet, we can always feel it, because it is a part of every movie we ever watch. On this episode we get a chance to talk to someone who can tell us a little of how that movie magic works.We hope you enjoy this one!

As we continue or Summer of Sam, we bring in Sam Elliott and finally rolling into the lanes of one of cinema's most beloved cult classics: The Big Lebowski. Starring Jeff Bridges as the effortlessly iconic “The Dude,” John Goodman as the unhinged Vietnam vet Walter, Steve Buscemi as the soft-spoken Donny, Julianne Moore as the enigmatic Maude, and John Turturro as the unforgettable Jesus Quintana, this 1998 Coen Brothers comedy had us laughing, quoting, and marveling at how well it still holds up. Whether it's the surreal dream sequences, the endlessly quotable dialogue, or the offbeat charm of every character, The Big Lebowski remains as fresh and funny as ever.Revisiting this film felt less like watching a movie and more like hanging out with old friends. The humor has aged beautifully—if anything, it's even sharper now that we're older and more attuned to its satirical brilliance. With a supporting cast including Philip Seymour Hoffman, Tara Reid, and David Huddleston, the film continues to deliver unexpected laughs and layered performances. The Dude abides, and so do we. Join us for a nostalgic, hilarious, and surprisingly thoughtful conversation about what makes this film a true masterpiece of modern comedy.Stick around for a round of Trivia after the conversation.Safe bowling, dudes.

Jimmy Morrison co-wrote and directed the award-winning documentary The Housing Bubble with NY Times bestselling author Tom Woods. The film still holds the attendance record at the Anthem Film Festival after over 300 people spilled into the hallway at the premiere. Jimmy drove over 35,000 miles shooting interviews with people that predicted the crash like Ron Paul, Jim Rogers, Marc Faber, Peter Schiff, Doug Casey, Jim Grant, and David Stockman.All told, Morrison has three documentaries on our spiralling debt crisis which keeps getting monumentally bigger: The Housing Bubble (2019); The Fall of 2008 (2025) and The Bigger Bubble (2026). "Some call it the Everything Bubble. Each [financial] buble keeps getting bigger," Morrison tells DIG LIFE DEEP! host JOHN AIDAN BYRNE, in this interview. We trace the surge in global financial and US debt encompassing mind-bending US student debt, credit card debt, unfunded liabilities and more. Global debt is thought to be hovering around $300 trillion or even much more. How did it come to this? We explore this horrendous debt accumulation and the rise of central banking with filmmaker MORRISON. Morrison's work on Dennis Quaid's Grid Down won a Storyteller Award at DOC LA. Although he was responsible for the motion graphics, his primary role was as a script doctor. Jimmy produced and ran a camera for the mockumentary Rocksteppy, starring Jake Dilley and McManus Woodend, best known for his recurring role as the GEICO caveman. The film features Jeff Dowd: the Coen Brothers original inspiration for “The Dude,” as well as cameos from Oscar-winning directors David Lynch and Peter Farrelly. David Lynch had picked Jimmy and Jake's music video Aperture for a grant. It also screened at the Minneapolis St. Paul Film Festival. His next film will tell the story of Luka Garza's journey to the NBA.Jimmy worked closely with Gary Johnson from 2010-2011 on his Republican Presidential campaign.Website: letusdisagree.com

In the second installment of our seven deadly sins arc, Zach and Ben explore greed through the lens of Fargo. The breakout movie for the Coen Brothers, Frances McDormand, and William H. Macy, Fargo is a bleak look at an often overlooked area of the U.S. The slimy, underconfident used car salesman Jerry Lundergaard, desperate for money, bites off more than he can chew with a scheme he develops. Chaos ensues, and we witness greed destroying multiple lives throughout the film.

On today's episode we discuss a movie loosely based on The Odessey and nominated for 2 Oscars.  This movie was the first adapted screenplay by the Coen Brothers and was called a hillbilly musical comedy adventure by John Turturo.  It made Dapper Dan a household name, and turned "Man of Constant Sorrow" into a bluegrass banger for the new millennium.

SEASON 2 - EPISODE 147 - Turning the Tables - TRUE GRIT - David Mullen Cinematographer David Mullen (Season 1, Episode 83 & Season 2, Episode 113) returns for a new edition of the “Turning the Tables” series in this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast. David's questions center around our work on the Coen Brothers' 2010 version of TRUE GRIT, and we had a wonderful time answering them. In addition to the questions concerning how we actually made the film, we also discuss the long history of westerns and the visual variety within the genre. We also reveal the story behind the push-in in the opening shot of the film, what was on location and what was on stage, and how we shot the river crossing scene. We later reflect on working with then-child actor Hailee Steinfeld, and we discuss the script's unique and engaging dialogue. We also reflect on the utility of cowboy hats and on the visual strength of westerns directed by John Ford and Sergio Leone, and we swap stories from our early-career, low-budget exterior shoots. Topics also include: film stocks, aspect ratios, lighting locations and sets, and nighttime nightmares shooting a black mare against a black sky. - Recommended Viewing: TRUE GRIT (2010) - This episode is sponsored by Aputure & Profoto

This week we're joined by friend of the show, co-mayor, and all three hosts of this podcast Mattie Lubchansky (thats an S1E18 joke kids) to discuss the Coen Brothers' movie about a man faced with a lot of questions and seemingly no answers. ----- FREE PALESTINE Hey, Devon here. In our home, we talk a lot about how insane everything feels, and agonise constantly over what can be done to best help the Palestinians trapped in Gaza facing the full brunt of genocidal violence. My partner Rebecca has put together a list of four fundraisers you can contribute to- all of them are at work on the ground doing what they can. -Palestinian Communist Youth Union, which is doing a food and water effort, and is part of the official communist party of Palestine https://www.gofundme.com/f/to-preserve-whats-left-of-humanity-global-solidarity -Water is Life, a water distribution project in North Gaza affiliated with an Indigenous American organization and the Freedom Flotilla https://www.waterislifegaza.org/ -Vegetable Distribution Fund, which secured and delivers fresh veg, affiliated with Freedom Flotilla also https://www.instagram.com/linking/fundraiser?fundraiser_id=1102739514947848 -Thamra, which distributes herb and veg seedlings, repairs and maintains water infrastructure, and distributes food made with replanted veg patches https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-thamra-cultivating-resilience-in-gaza ----- WEB DESIGN ALERT Tom Allen is a friend of the show (and the designer behind our website).

Let's get this out of the way: Michael Malloy should not have survived. But somehow, this Irish-born New York City drunkard became the most hilariously unkillable man in Prohibition-era history.In this episode of The Spill, Matt, Jason, and Kendra unravel the unbelievable tale of MichaelMalloy, a man so dedicated to booze, and so impervious to death, that he turned a murder plotinto a months-long disaster for the people trying to kill him.We're talking poisoned drinks, gas chambers, frozen nights, car crashes, and more. All in aplot so stupid, so desperate, and so darkly funny, it could've been written by the Coen Brothers.This is easily one of the wildest, most entertaining stories we've ever told on this show. Weguarantee you'll laugh, wince, and immediately start retelling it to your friends.#MichaelMalloy #TrueCrime #DrunkHistory #Prohibitionhttps://www.youtube.com/@arsenicculturehttps://instagram.com/arsenicculturehttps://tiktok.com/@arsenicculturehttps://www.facebook.com/arsenicculture/https://x.com/arsenicculture
