Scandalous love affairs. Sarah Watt, Jeremy Downing and Doug Dillaman discuss May December (2023) and Notes on a Scandal (2006). We begin by hearing each person's reaction to watching or rewatching Notes on a Scandal. We touch on the real case that both films are based on, focused on the relationship between Matu Kay Letouneau and Vili Fualaau. We talk about the performances of Dame Judi Dench, Cate Blanchett, Bill Nighy, Juno Temple, Natalie Portman, Julianne Moore, Charles Melton and Corey Michael Smith. We discuss our reactions, criticisms and praise for Todd Haynes' May December. We begin to explore the ways both stories deal with a fraught subject and whose perspective we focus on. Sarah and Jeremy present their own perspectives from teaching and how they navigate creating and maintaining safe spaces for teenagers. We finish by considering how this story might be told again in the future and whose perspectives need to be highlighted.

Meta slasher films. Sarah Watt and Jeremy Downing, with special guest Doug Dillaman, discuss Scream (1996) and Scream (2022). We begin by discussing the self-referential and meta qualities of the Scream series, including Scream 2 (1997), Scream 3 (2000) and Scream 4 (2011). We link and talk about the films in regards to Drew Barrymore, Scooby Doo and Psycho (1960), Hereditary (2018), The Babadook (2014) and Midsommar (2019). We then move into a discussion of the lore of the films, going through each movie and our connection to them. This then progresses to a discussion around the visceral violence of the films, and how that emphasises and subvert horror movie tropes. We talk about the depiction of mental illness, homosexuality and transsexuality in horror films, especially as a motivator for committing atrocities. This brings us to reference Heavenly Creatures (1994), Rope (1948) and Yellowjackets (2021). We move to discuss the perspective of each film and the filmmakers confidence in filmmaking, linking to "requels" like Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015). We talk about the cast, including Melissa Barrera, Jack Quaid, Mikey Madison, Jenna Ortega, Jasmin Savoy Brown and Marley Shelton. We then discuss the realities of filming in Covid-19 affected times, linking to Moonfall (2022), Reacher (2022) and Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021). We finish by discussing the elements of the series that are unrealistic, especially the wounds that many characters shouldn't survive from. Our final thoughts touch on the idea of elevated horror and how might that sub-genre of horror finds its way more tonally in the Scream franchise.

Christopher Nolan films. Sarah Watt, Jeremy Downing, Doug Dillaman and William Chen discuss two Christopher Nolan films, Memento (2000) and Tenet (2020). We start by discussing how we each saw Tenet at the cinema, with a global pandemic, comparing our respective experiences - especially the sound design of Nolan's films. Sarah unpacks elements of the sound in Tenet, highlighting her own podcast The Sound of Movies and the work of Hans Zimmer. Our discussion then moves into the central story of Tenet, trying to unpack what the film is trying to do and comparing it to the simple narrative drive of Memento. We compare the work done behind the scenes in bth films, especially the big budget nature of Tenet and the low-budget focus of Memento. We compare the films to Zack Snyder's work, The Matrix, Jonathan Nolan and Westworld, Primer, Timecrimes, Triangle, Inception, The Lost Boys and Timecop.

Near the great down under, ex-pat Doug Dillaman has crafted his own cinephile life in New Zealand. Whether it's writing about movies, practicing the craft of editing for national television, or making his own movie, Jake, Doug has continually engaged in movies in a place often not thought about for its cinephile culture. So in this sit down with Peter, Doug talks about his origins of cinephila in Michigan and Texas, the idea of "leaning in" as a way to understand how an editor can tell a story, and how he crafted a supremely dark comedy about a man replaced in his own life. Finally, the two talk about My Neighbor Totoro, Hayao Miyazaki's impressionist vision of childhood magic, which leads Peter to reflect on how we discuss the feeling of delight in cinema. 0:00-2:30 Opening3:22-8:54 Establishing Shots - On Charles Bronson9:38-1:18:36 Deep Focus - Doug Dillaman1:19:19-1:39:06 Double Exposure - My Neighbor Totoro (Hayao Miyazaki)1:39:10-1:40:48 Close

This week, I travel overseas (via Skype, that is) and talk to a couple of American-born mofos I know who decided to live abroad. For today's Crizzlecast, I head over to New Zealand to talk to Doug Dillaman, a filmmaker, editor and well-known cinephile who also did some living time over in my hometown of Houston. We discuss his early days as an aspiring film geek in H-Town, how he ended up living in New Zealand and the egos he had to deal with when editing a project. He also educates me on the Detroit tradition known as "Devil's Night" and encourages me to stop worrying and love Lady Terminator. Yes, I learned a lot during this conversation.
