THE SWIMMER (1968) We dive deep in to The Swimmer and discuss and analyze, maybe just a little bit the glorious film directed by Frank Perry, based on a screenplay by Eleanor Perry, from the 12 page short story by John Cheever. "Well-off ad man Ned Merrill (Burt Lancaster) is visiting a friend when he notices the abundance of backyard pools that populate their upscale suburb. Ned suddenly decides that he'd like to travel the eight miles back to his own home by simply swimming across every pool in town."If you're reading this I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.

On this episode of Remainders we watched Spike Lee's 25th Hour, the Edward Norton drama about a drug dealer's final night of freedom before heading to prison. Shot in New York right after 9/11, the movie feels right in the moment, with grief, uncertainty, and the sense that there's no tomorrow. We talk about the ideas like mortality, facing consequences, and what accountability really looks like when time's running out. We also get into about the outstanding cast: Barry Pepper, Philip Seymour Hoffman doing awkward brilliance, Rosario Dawson, and Brian Cox stealing scenes as Norton's dad. Plus, we look at how it fits into Spike Lee's career.Other topics include Montgomery Clift's tragic Hollywood story, Tarantino's Death Proof connections, Patrice O'Neal, Matt Dillon and Singles, favorite Bruce Springsteen albums, first impressions of the new Toxic Avenger, and the new movies at Tarantino's Vista Theater.Songs of the WeekThe Right Profile by The ClashWhirling-In-Rags, 8 AM by Sea PowerRemainders Jukebox PlaylistWebsiteFacebookInstagramYouTubeTwitter

In this episode, blind film critic John Stark shares his lifelong passion for movies and how it led him to watch and review over 500 films a year for more than two decades. From his early days reading Entertainment Weekly at age nine and being inspired by Jurassic Park, to becoming a recognized critic on Rotten Tomatoes, Stark explains what fuels his love of cinema and his unique perspective as a blind critic. He talks about founding the Blind Film Critics Society with Alex and Lee, with the goal of building a community of diverse blind and low-vision voices in film criticism-so audiences can hear more than just one “unicorn” perspective. Stark outlines his vision for the next one and five years: increasing representation in critics' organizations, doubling the amount of audio described content on streaming platforms, and shifting the narrative around accessibility from tokenism to true inclusion. The conversation digs into his views on audio description quality, the dangers of over-relying on text-to-speech, and the frustration of studios sitting on existing AD tracks without making them available. Stark also discusses the tension of being a critic in a small field-where honest reviews can sometimes clash with the companies he wants to support. Through it all, his message is clear: blind and low-vision audiences deserve full access to film, and blind critics deserve a seat at the table in shaping cultural conversations about cinema.

We're back to discuss more Cannon and Carolco movies! Ukrainian film critic, author and now podcaster, Davyd Klimov joins me to discuss our favorite films from the cult companies. It's hard not to love 80's action flicks and it's about time I had a discussion on them.When you're done with the pod, check out his book To Watch, or Not To Watch, which is filled with reviews that Klimov recommends and … doesn't. Klimov is very knowledgable critic and if this podcast doesn't convince you to buy his book, then check it out anyways.If you're not doing so already, please like and follow Classic American Movies on Instagram and Facebook. I do free movie giveaways, mini movie reviews and more! Also, I decided to dabble in making my own slasher film entitled “Bishop's Day”. Check out the Instagram page for updates.
A few weeks back, Dennis was invited to moderate a Queer Authors Panel at the first-ever Pride Live Hollywood festival. The panel was so fun, interesting and, in a few instances, downright dishy, that Dennis thought it would make a great podcast. The authors featured are Nancy Beverly (Shelby's Vacation), Curtis Chin, (Everything I Learned, I Learned in a Chinese Restaurant), Jim Colucci (Golden Girls Forever), Frank DeCaro (Disco: Music, Movies, and Mania Under the Mirror Ball), Alonso Duralde, (Hollywood Pride), Rasheed Newson, (My Government Means to Kill Me), Mark B. Perry (And Introducing Dexter Gaines) and Bruce Vilanch (It Seemed Like a Bad Idea at the Time). In addition to talking about their individual books and what inspired them to write them, the authors share stories about the books that rocked their worlds as readers and talk about what it means to them to finally have their precious babies out in the world.
