Send us a textOn our 107th podcast, we here at the Triple FFF thought we'd try to once again attempt relevance and discuss a current big release, this time Wes Anderson's 2025 father-daughter high stakes business and espionage caper The Phoenician Scheme starring Benicio Del Toro, Mia Threapleton, Michael Cera, Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Riz Ahmed, Scarlet Johansson, Mathieu Amalric, Jeffrey Wright, Rupert Friend and Benedict Cumberbatch. As well as Mr. Anderson's troupe of good-natured bit players and walk ons which includes Bill Murray, F. Murray Abraham, Wilem Dafoe and now Charlotte Gainsbourg.  I'm your host Gino Caputi and my guests this week are the always dependable show regulars Joe Field, David Johnson DMD and Gordon Alex RobertsonThe Phoenician Scheme's plot unfolds as follows: After surviving yet another assassination attempt, this time with a glimpse of the afterlife, wealthy arms dealer and industrialist Anatole Zsa-Zsa Korda realizes his days are numbered and possibly without purpose. Hoping to reconnect with his estranged daughter Liesl—now on the verge of taking her final vows as a Catholic nun—he names her the sole heir to his estate. In exchange for long-withheld truths about her mother's murder, Korda convinces Liesl to accompany him on a whirlwind journey to secure funding from several colorfully shady investors for his grand, multi-layered Phoenician Scheme—plans for which are ingeniously stored in a series of shoeboxes.Where does this film rank within Wes Anderson's collection of stories about larger-than-life, big talking fathers of dubious emotional and financial sincerity?  Find out!Watch the video podcast on Youtube:https://youtu.be/QVYj2zTif5o

Matt Stevens, designer and illustrator, talks about The Batman, a unique take on the Bruce Wayne and Batman mythology brought to life by Matt Reeves and starring Robert Pattinson, Zoë Kravitz, Jeffrey Wright, Colin Farrell, Paul Dano, and Andy Serkis. This 2022 version has less of the comic-y qualities that Joel Schumacher instilled in the 90s versions, but has a gritty, frightening ambiance closer to David Fincher's Se7en. In addition to The Batman, Stevens also talks about Good Movies as Old Books which reimagines movies as book covers.-Matt Stevens found himself frustrated with his current job as creative director at a brand agency, so he (literally) went back to the drawing board with an illustration project that turned out to be the perfect fit, designing a Nike Air Max shoe every day. After doing 50 drawings, he had initially chose to end the project, but aimed for 100 AirMax1-a-day drawings that he'd showcase in an art book, accompanying website, and exhibition, also proved rewarding. To date, he's created multiple, self-initiated projects, including the Good Movies as Old Books project, now a book and postcard set available from Chronicle.https://www.goodmoviesasoldbooks.com/https://www.hellomattstevens.com/https://www.hellomattstevens.com/store/batman-xwms5https://www.hellomattstevens.com/store/batman-xwms5-gnyzehttps://www.hellomattstevens.com/book-covers-varioushttps://www.hellomattstevens.com/blog/process-the-rookie-handbook-Taking Side Projects to the Next Level, HOW magazinehttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1tXNGjxQv4jwbf77DJOffXpENtbJwcPPH/view?usp=sharingMatt Stevens on The Great Discontenthttps://thegreatdiscontent.com/interview/matt-stevens/-The Batman (2022)https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1877830/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Fawkeshttps://deadline.com/2024/10/dynamic-duo-movie-robins-dc-1236105077/-Batman and Se7en, the connectionshttps://x.com/JasonTselentis/status/176347788844597248https://www.vulture.com/2012/07/46-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-batman-films.htmlhttps://whatculture.com/film/superman-and-batman-team-up-movie-set-for-2015-Designers, artists, and media discussedSaul Basshttps://eyeondesign.aiga.org/design-history-101/Kurt Cobainhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_CobainPrismacolorhttps://www.prismacolor.com/-Other movies and shows discussed, alphabetical listBatman (1989)Batman Begins (2005)Batman Returns (1992)Batman v Superman (2016)Breaking Bad (2008-2013)Citizen Kane (1941)The Crow (1994)The Dark Knight (2008)The Dark Knight Rises (2012)Network (1976)Peacemaker (2022-)The Penguin (2024-)Se7en (1995)Thunderbolts* (2025)
