Brecht van Hulten in gesprek met documentairemaakster Loretta van der Horst. Deze week gaat de nieuwe documentaire The Border Crossed Us van Loretta van der Horst draaien in de bioscoop. The Border Crossed Us onthult de ingrijpende gevolgen van grensbeveiliging in het Texaanse grensstadje La Joya. Een verweven verhaal van politie, smokkelaars en immigranten, waar persoonlijke offers de onvermijdelijke tol vormen van een voortdurende strijd.  De film ging eind vorig jaar in wereldpremière op IDFA en was begin dit jaar te zien bij het Movies That Matter festival.

The Goonies taps into the memory of a time when you would go off on an adventure with your neighborhood pals, but here it's not playtime. The adventure is real! Robert Parris, Chris's longtime friend and colleague at Burlington Cable Access Television (BCAT) finally makes his debut on Movies That Matter to discuss the 1985 Richard Donner-directed adventure-film, which he has been recommending to Chris pretty much since they first met!

In the winter of 2021, Liz Gillespie decided her senior capstone project would be a documentary that poised the question "What makes a film a classic?" She interviewed Chris Flaherty for her documentary, and from that documentary the idea for Movies That Matter was born. Liz has been a frequent quest on the pod, and for this special 20th episode, commemorating the 20th anniversary of Disney and Pixar's Finding Nemo, she swaps seats with Chris and acts as host. (It's been a long time coming as she practically already is Chris's co-host/producer!) Join Liz and Chris for an in-depth discussion on this Disney/Pixar classic and what it means to both of them, and share their thoughts on the film's themes of parenthood, anxiety, and legacy.

In the winter of 2021, Liz Gillespie decided her senior capstone project would be a documentary that poised the question "What makes a film a classic?" She interviewed Chris Flaherty for her documentary, and from that documentary the idea for Movies That Matter was born. In the second part of the 20th episode special, Liz and Chris dive into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) (a podcast first believe it or not) for a look at James Gunn's quirky-space-opera trilogy Guardians of The Galaxy. Covering the original 2014 film, while also diving into Vol.2 and Vol.3, Liz and Chris discuss a simpler time in the MCU, the franchise's themes of grief and found family, and how the original makes an unexpectedly decent double-feature with Finding Nemo!

"When I was your age, television was called books." The Princess Bride is a timeless classic that is still beloved by moviegoers everywhere, like Sarah Eshelman, English and Journalism Teacher in Burlington, who joins Chris in this installment of Movies That Matter. Sarah and Chris share their experiences watching The Princess Bride and how the passion of the filmmakers behind the scenes helped make it a timeless classic.

Jackson. A film that shows the importance of mentorship and legacy. It proves appearances can be deceiving, and that Colin Firth is an absolute savage. Manners. Maketh. Man.

The Lion King, Walt Disney Pictures' 32nd Animated Feature Film, was released on June 24, 1994 to near universal critical and commercial acclaim. Many consider it to be one of Walt Disney Animation's greatest animated films, if not the greatest. It's an epic, coming-of-age story that has resonated with audiences for almost thirty years. For Chris, it gets a bit more personal (as it should on Movies That Matter). Chris takes an episode to himself to speak on The Lion King, and not just his personal connection to the film, but his late father's. Listen and discover the special meaning this film has to both father and son, in a special tribute to Chris's own Lion King, who passed away last year.

How do wild salmon, hatchery salmon and farmed fish interact with Orca whales and our desire to have a stable environment?  The Patagonia-sponsored documentary, Artifishal, explores these questions and more: come see it at the Lynwood theatre November 7 and meet the film’s producer, Bainbridge Islander Dylan Tomine. Tomine is a fisherman, forager, writer, conservationist and father, not necessarily in that order. His book, Closer to the Ground (Patagonia Books, 2012), is an account of a year in his family’s life as they forage, process, cook and eat wild foods from the land and waters around their Bainbridge Island home. In this podcast Dylan talks with BCB’s Chris Walker about the making of Artifishal, which he produced in hopes that there will be fish for his kids, Skyla and Weston, when they grow up. Listen here as he describes some of the work being done to protect wild salmon – a subject of growing interest in light of recent fish pen failures and our local Orca population decline. The film will be presented at 7pm Thursday November 7 at the Historic Lynwood Theatre.  A discussion will follow with Tomine and Kurt Beardslee, the Director of the Wild Fish Conservancy. For free tickets, visit https://artifishal-lynwood.brownpapertickets.com/ Credits: BCB host and audio editor: Chris Walker; publisher: Chris Walker.

Nicole and Garret discuss Boy Erased, the need for a trigger warning for the very graphic rape scene, Nicole Kidman in one of her best roles, the toll of taking on heavy emotional content, and how we'd rewrite the ending. We tackle how we deal with parents who won't accept us and how damaging it is to be disowned. We also discuss gay conversion therapy and how useless and harmful it is. Read Josh and Lolly Weed's moving post about the dissolution of their marriage as they accepted it was impossible to live life as a gay man in a straight marriage.

The MovieFilm gang is joined once again by friend of the show Paul Shirey, newly-minted editor-in-chief of Joblo.com. And he couldn't have picked a better show to add his voice too, as we've got conversation on the latest installments of the long-running Die Hard and Mad Max franchises, potential titles for the much-anticipated Superman/Batman team-up pic, and the possible sequel to It's a Wonderful Life that was briefly being discussed last week.In addition, we mark the fiftieth anniversary of the passing of President John F.
