This is a celebration, not just another Director's Club episode for a reason. Back in 1990, I became an avid fan and follower of today's guest and he's been on this show a couple of times in the past, most recently for the Paul Thomas Anderson Part II episode. I'm talking of course about Nick Digilio.40 years ago, he began his career as a professional film critic, reviewing movies on Roy Leonard's radio show. It's also amazing to think that 40 years ago, I first fell in love with movies after seeing Back to the Future in 1985.Nick's 40th anniversary is a month away so I thought it would be great to relive the past, share some memories and even throw a couple of lists his way, including my biggest disagreements with him over the years and some titles I'm grateful to have discovered because of Nick too (one of which is obvious since it's the reason he became a favorite film critic of mine).In addition to the first 80 minutes of delightful conversation and reminiscing, we then talk for a half hour about a director he's always considered to be underrated: Kevin Reynolds. Find out why he feels that way and seek out a couple of under-seen works of his that I had the pleasure of discovering too.It's an honor and a pleasure to talk with Nick to celebrate all he's done and all he continues to do. If it weren't for him, my life might've gone in a different direction so I'm grateful for his time and all the support going back to 1997.00:00 - 04:34 - Introduction.04:35 - 33:23 - Celebrating 40 Years Of Nick.33:24 - 01:22:27 - Top 5 Disagreements / Discoveries.01:22:28 - 01:54:38 - Kevin Reynolds (Underrated Director).01:54:39 - 02:10:00 - Nick's Events / Surprise Flashback / Outro.Follow all-things Nick:https://www.nickdigilio.comhttps://www.classiccinemas.com/events/nicks-pix/137https://radiomisfits.com/podcasts/nickdpodcasthttps://www.patreon.com/c/NickDShowFollow all-things Jim:https://linktr.ee/jimlaczkowskihttps://directorsclub.substack.com Get full access to Director's Club at directorsclub.substack.com/subscribe

Kerry and Collin are joined by first-time guest, longtime friend, film critic Nick Digilio, who claims "The Ref"--starring Dennis Leary, Kevin Spacey and Judy Davis--is his favorite Christmas film of all time. Collin has similar feelings and wanted to wait until the movie had an anniversary, so it could be featured prominently in the December line-up, when the movie would hopefully get more attention than it did back in the day. Why did the studio botch its release? Do people still make fruitcake jokes today? How did screenwriter Richard LaGravenese get his revenge on a Chicago film critic with this film? Also, Nick's choice for a Christmas episode/TV special is none other than the classic "Pee-Wee's Playhouse Christmas Special." It truly is one of the best Christmas specials of all, as evidenced by the joy everyone experienced making it and the joy it continues to bring to audiences several  generations later. (NOTE: Apologies for some of the sound quality on this one. It's mostly in the first 15 minutes). 

That Show Hasn't Been Funny In Years: an SNL podcast on Radio Misfits

Nick Digilio welcomes film critic, writer, financial analyst, and corporate governance speaker Nell Minow (AKA: The Movie Mom) to the podcast to discuss her love of Saturday Night Live and much more. Nick and Nell chat about how she's watched every episode of the show since its very beginning, and how her father—the great Newton Minow—is forever connected to SNL. They also delve into the historical importance of the show, especially during an election year. Nell unveils her five favorite sketches of all time, which feature the talents of Dan Aykroyd, Tina Fey, Bowen Yang, Tom Hanks, Amy Poehler, and writer Julio Torres, among others. She shares behind-the-scenes stories involving Phil Donahue and Gilda Radner, as well as anecdotes about the President of the United States and Lorne Michaels. Throughout the conversation, Nick and Nell analyze why SNL has remained such an important show for entire generations of fans. It's a terrific interview with a brilliant guest, loaded with funny sketches and great tales. [Ep97]

For over 20 years, Erik Childress joined Nick Digilio on WGN Radio to talk and review movies. After his show was unceremoniously canceled this September, the movie review segment that was a staple on Chicago radio went as well. But now, following up on requests from fans, Erik and Steve Prokopy return to keep its memory alive; a segment once populated with the likes of Christmas Movies Actually host, Collin Souter, for nearly two decades and even the Now Playing Network founder, Jim Laczkowski. It’s a longstanding tradition that the Movie Madness Podcast now hopes to resurrect and they have picked a week that includes the latest from Justin Benson & Aaron Moorhead, Robert Zemeckis, Sofia Coppola and, of course, they talk the return of Borat and get into Rudy Giuliani’s pants. Some great recommendations on this show and we hope to continue to bring you more.
