CLICK TO SUBSCRIBE ON YOUR FAVORITE PODCATCHER We're seen all the movies, we've enjoyed or destroyed them all based on how we feel, and the big night is here at last. We start off with a discussion of the 35th Annual Academy Awards and how unremarkable it was - save for one very uniquely petty acceptance speech. Frank Sinatra may be charming, but he really shouldn't emcee an awards show. Then we dive deep into the 2025 Oscars, are befuddled and disappointed by how much everyone seems to love Anora, declare love for Conan O'Brien's bits and the nation of Latvia, and overall just seem underwhelmed by the year in movies that was.

CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of racism, sexual assault, false imprisonment. 1962 contained not one but two books that were thrust upon us as required school reading (or acting), but none loom as large as this story. To be fair, it's one of the few stories about the pre-Civil Rights Act South that's presented through the eyes of a child, and that means it's perfect school fodder. The movie was a huge labor of love from the entire creative team, which is fantastic and reads on screen, but also makes for a truly uneven watching experience. Director Robert Mulligan gets the most out of the cast, but his execution of trying to see things through Jem & Scout's perspective never translates on screen. In fact, the only moments that truly work are in the courtroom, when the reality of small town Alabama racism come roaring back. It's a shame it's not a better movie because Gregory Peck is giving his masterpiece performance and the kids are phenomenal on screen, but acting alone cannot a movie make.

CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of alcoholism, child neglect, substance abuse, addiction. Every year at the Oscars there's a movie that stands out as the film that should be the Best Picture, just for the sheer raw power of its storytelling. This is that movie. Jack Lemmon is giving a performance for the ages, the supporting cast is rock solid, and the always contrarian Blake Edwards goes for broke. This could have easily been a melodrama, but you get the sense very quickly that everyone making this movie got the impact of what they were doing here. And that's incredible, considering there's movies that come out in 2025 that can't capture the truth of addiction like this movie.

CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of abuse, car accidents, aging, mental illness.. If last week was about a world war, this film is about a two-woman war. Joan Crawford and Bette Davis were two of the bitterest rivals in the 30's and 40's, but by 1962 both were desperate for a hit. So was director Robert Aldrich, and the three combined to create a unique blend of gothic horror and Hollywood cynicism that still resonates today.

CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of deafness, blindness, ableism. D-Day happened over 80 years ago, and to this day, there's only been two films that capture the scope and scale of that bloody day. This movie is one of those, and unfortunately it's the boring one. To be clear, the battle sequences are among some of the best committed to celluloid; there's a few moments that will make you gasp at how well legendary ringleader Darryl F. Zanuck captures the battlefield. But then we turn to the characters, and they're all a) played by actors double the age of the characters and b) say the absolute hokiest lines you'll hear in a war movie. It may be an accurate film, but this definitely isn't entertaining history. We continue Oscars ‘62 as we discuss The Longest Day onMacintosh & Maud Haven't Seen What?!

CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of deafness, blindness, ableism. If you've ever done theater, and we definitely have, you dread the thought of having to deal with anything related to this movie and this story. And you'd be right to, because all too often we tell a sanitized, ableist, overacted retelling of a very real story: the breakthrough Annie Sullivan had teaching her student Helen Keller to communicate. So you'll have to pardon our shock while watching the original film adaptation of the Broadway success, and finding it's in fact a brilliant film. Director Arthur Penn is brilliant in adapting his own stage production by showing and not telling, a move that seems impossible for most stage to screen adaptations. Anne Bancroft and Patty Duke, reprising their roles from Broadway, are absolutely phenomenal. And sure, the supporting cast might as well be cardboard cutouts, but it doesn't matter when you've got a film as compellingly made as this one.

CONTENT WARNING: imprisonment, solitary confinement, murder, homosexuality. The duds just keep on coming this week as a movie about one of America's most dangerous (and quirky) prisoners just collapses under its own weight. Many times we celebrate directors and casts who deeply care about their subject. In this case, it somehow makes the whole experience worse, mostly because it commits the cardinal sin of being boring. It's not the worst movie we've ever seen, but it's a real drag to sit through. Oscars ‘62 continues as we talk about Birdman of Alcatraz onMacintosh & Maud Haven't Seen What?!

We keep our Oscars series rolling and well, things have been rough to start. You'd think with a musical as culturally significant and iconic as this one that the movies would have done it up for fun. Sadly, this is an incredibly BORING movie. Sure, Robert Preston is incredible, and sure, the songs are fun, but after the 3rd of 17 dance breaks, you start to realize that our director just barely made a movie. They might as well have filmed the stage production and screened that instead for as much money as they sunk into this.

We kick things off this week with mid-century Hollywood stalwart Tennessee Williams. Boy do we wish we hadn't. There are some legitimately good and enjoyable performances, but they're wasted on a movie that said “you know what this play adaptation needs - more set pieces!” This movie is a hot mess, and not in the way Tennessee Williams would want us to see it.

Why do we play games?  Because they're fun?  Or is it because they give us a sense of structure and a clear goal, a refreshing contrast to our real lives, which are messy, unpredictable, and complicated? In the same way, we listen to Bach to give a much-needed feeling of structure and clarity to our hectic, messy lives.   But sometimes, he doesn't quite give us what we expect.  He breaks the patterns. And it's at those moments when we can catch a glimpse of the angels in the architecture. Italian Concerto, BWV 971, second movement, as performed by Christine Schornsheim for the Netherlands Bach Society "Wandering Flame", from the soundtrack to Final Fantasy X; this track is by the composer Masashi Hamauzu Link to chapter 1 of "Travels in Hyperreality" by Umberto Eco; the discussion on Disneyland mainly takes place on pages 43-48 of this document

Thanks for sharing, subscribing, rating, and reviewing, as this helps our community to grow. Thanks as always to my friend, Peter Vaughan-Vail, for providing the beautiful harp music you hear in this and every episode. Here are some resources to help you dig into this week's topic on your own: 1. Raised Catholic Recommends music playlist on Spotify - faith music from lots of genres/moods 2. Green Noise playlist on Spotify 3. Song: Front Porch, by Vontmer - check out all of his music, lots in that green frequency range, but this one is magic for little ones. 4. Video clip - JAWS - With and Without Music featuring Richard Dreyfuss and John Williams 5. Song: Pitter Patter Goes the Rain, by Christy Nockels. I've taught this song hundreds of times and never had a teacher or parent NOT say that there is magic in this song. Nockels herself says that she recorded a track of herself reading scripture or encouraging words in each of the songs on this album that you can't audibly hear but you can feel. Listen for yourself. 6. Journal question: when has music elicited a response in me that I did not expect? What kind of music was it? Where was I? How do I explain that reaction? 7. A primer on green, white, brown, and pink music/sound from Soundly 8. A few examples of music that unexpectedly ministered to me: Simple Gifts from Appalachian Spring, Aaron Copland, John Williams, Boston Pops Orchestra Beethoven's 5th Symphony, Second Movement, Andante (When I first heard this, I thought it sounded like what we'll hear in Heaven. I still do.) Rainbow, by Kacey Musgraves Four, by Sleeping At Last (lots of 'hidden tracks' in his music as well - hear him tell the story of this one in this podcast episode - how it was made)

Feeling tired? Need to unwind? Then how about some gentle, soothing piano music? Welcome to the Episode 8 of the Fourth Series in the Relaxing Piano Playlist! In this episode, I perform for you music by Granados, Mendelssohn, Liszt, Scriabin, Ravel and the Second Movement from Chopin's Piano Concerto No.1 in E, Op.11.

It's time for a new spin around the world of documentaries, and we're starting things off with a certified gem that David brings from his “important film” days. In 1966, door-to-door sales were almost completely dead, but that didn't stop Albert and David Maysles from centering their first-ever film on the subject. Their documentary was honed and crafted from 100 hours of footage and four men giving their best pitches for the Greatest Book Ever Written, and completely self-distributed. But the final result is one of the most incisive, thoughtful and honest portrayals of hustle committed to film, and a true breakthrough for documentary filmmaking.

Oops, Freddy wasn't really dead after the final nightmare. But as Wes Craven makes abundantly clear in this film, horror legends never really go away, they always stick around. Wes' work in this film is admirable, and it's some of the best storytelling in the series. Yet watching you can't help but think about the meta-horror classic that Wes would bring to us just two years later, a film that redefined the genre. Everyone here is doing admirable work and “sending off “ Freddy in style, but there's a lot of missed opportunities that could have made this a sure-fire horror masterpiece.

There's been a wide variety of entries in the Freddy Knife Hands series, but finally, finally, we got the entry that makes zero sense and is a bonkers good time. No, this film is not good, and no, it does not appear to have actually employed a competent editor. Although that may be the fault of the studio more than anyone involved in the production. Nevertheless, THINGS HAPPEN in this movie, and it's beyond weird and messy and hilarious and gory and sometimes, that's all you really want from your "final” entry in a horror franchise.

You don't usually expect the worst film of a horror franchise to be followed with one of the most unique entries, but Freddy Knife Hands is a fickle series of movies. It's a stretch to call this movie “good,” but it's one of the most visually interesting and cohesive entries since the original 1984 film. Stephen Hopkins has truly interesting, fascinating ideas of body horror and trauma along with some of the biggest stakes we've seen so far for Freddy himself. Alas, someone forgot to tell the writers that's what we were doing, because the dialogue and the story wholesale misses the part of the story that would really make this movie great, and instead we're left to wonder what might have been.

You never expect 80's horror movies to be quality cinema. But you do expect there to be some wild, ridiculous stuff that also has enough of an edge to be scary and terrifying. With the 4th installment of Freddy Knife Hands, the writers decided that none of this was necessary. No, instead we kill off the remaining Dream Warriors and tag along with a new heroine who literally does nothing. And we mean that literally - nothing happens in this movie until about the last 10 minutes, except for some intensely goofy Freddy murders and some terrible 80s acting. No, this one is truly dire, and the only hope is they can make it weird again before the end of this series.

Wes Craven didn't think Freddy Krueger could be a legitimate franchise character. And then the sequel basically printed money, and Wes thought it might be a good idea to jump back in the fray. This time, though, he and his co-writers returned back to the dream world, and Freddy comes for Nancy and a crew of new kids who discover, maybe, the path to destroy Freddy once and for all. No, the acting hasn't gotten any better, and no, the dialogue is still way too on the nose. But this is a real promising return to form for the franchise, and introduces a ton of new ideas for a great horror villain.

When we watched the original Nightmare on Elm Street for the show, we were only in our 2nd season and were still relative horror newbies. But it's finally time to explore the entire Fred Krueger canon, and this week we start with a film that has no right to be as interesting and good as it is. The acting still isn't great, the dialogue is atrocious, and the producer made the entire process a nightmare for everyone involved. But the intentional undercurrents of homoeroticism coupled with a totally different take on Freddy's abilities makes this a fun but flawed entry in the canon.

We're wrapping up our series with Spike's most recent joint, traveling to Vietnam for a cross between Apocalypse Now and The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. It's another bold swing in the new era of Spike, but yet again, the balance is all off. When this movie is working, it's a masterpiece, but there's so much of it that feels like a slog. And it's not because of anything fundamentally wrong with the story, just that there's far too much of it, and far too much pontificating on the story itself. For the cast alone, though, it's a shame this got buried in the COVID shutdown, because they deserve heaps of recognition.

We've jumped ahead to Spike's new era of films for a movie we absolutely should have seen so much earlier. Why? Because it's a Spike Lee Joint adapted from one of the most important Greek comedies ever written, and it happens to be pretty hilarious at how good a job it does. The problem is when Spike and new collaborator Kevin Willmott stray from the source and take themselves a little too seriously with an incredibly silly premise. Especially for Greek drama and comedy, allowing the structure to play out without interruption is the only way to go. We discuss 2015's Chi-Raq this week on Macintosh & Maud Haven't Seen What?!

This week we've got a special double feature, with a Spike movie we loved without knowing it was a Spike Lee joint, and one from the past that took a different look at the world of crime. In 2006, Spike dropped his most commercially successful film to date that just so happened to be a heist classic. But in 1995, he'd already explored the drug trade taking over lots of the projects. While both movies are different, they're a look at the different ways Spike approaches crime, police work, detectives, and his beloved New York.

David thinks this is actually a poignant allegory for the tragic events of 9/11 and trying to reckon with those emotions.

It was only a matter of time before Spike Lee decided to make his own ode to basketball. Unfortunately, his script here is just not up to par, which is a shame, because underneath the flash and messy storytelling, there's a really interesting story about fathers and sons. Denzel is bringing his best, as usual, and the supporting cast is doing their absolute best. Even Ray Allen, who's definitely not an actor, still has flashes of brilliance as he relaxes into the role. And Spike's directing has so much thought and care, particularly in his use of score. But none of that matters when the movie just doesn't have a whole lot to say. Check the ball and post up as we discuss 1998's He Got Game this week on Macintosh & Maud Haven't Seen What?!

And instead of taking a long break or jumping to big budget movies, Spike decided to rein everything back in for another slice of life about another of his many loves - jazz. Granted, his writing efforts were a bit disjointed, a bit lacking in story to make everything well-rounded. But Spike still brought all his visual powers to bear with a cast that absolutely knocks out their roles, even if they're a bit thin on the page.

After another Spike masterpiece (one we've both seen already), Spike geared up for one of his most personal projects to date. Written as a TV pilot by Spike's sister Joie and brother Cinqué, Spike reigns everything back in to show a family, both good and bad, living in Brooklyn in 1973. It moves more like a series of scenes than an actual movie, but the characters here are among some of his best, and Spike is willing to lay everything in front of us: the anger, the dysfunction, the sorrow, and the love. It doesn't hurt that he's got Alfre Woodard and Delroy Lindo as the parents either, nor an outstanding child performance from Zelda Harris. It's a really good movie, subtle but true and a delight to watch. Turn the TV off and make sure you clean your dishes as we discuss 1994's Crooklyn this week on Macintosh & Maud Haven't Seen What?!

Our Spike Lee series continues with, perhaps, Spike's greatest movie and only his third full-length feature. It's a movie so poignant and real that it can literally change lives, and we don't say that lightly. Of course, Hollywood was terrified it would incite violence and rioting, which is preposterous because its real message is how to navigate living together, both in peace and violence. Spike doesn't ask easy questions and doesn't expect easy answers; he just wants to lay it all out in front of us. And, in the meantime, he gives us a whole crew of unique, well-drawn characters that, even when caricatures, still show a sense of the real world and all of its struggles.

We're starting a new director series, and this year we're watching the films of one of Hollywood's most controversial and iconic directors: Spike Lee. This week, we check out his first joint, a sex comedy that's shockingly progressive and thoughtful for its time. It's refreshing for one of the greatest low-budget films of all time to be far more thoughtful than most comedies of its era. And it's incredibly funny to boot, provided you remember it's 1986 and off-color jokes cross the line more often than not. It's not the greatest movie, but it's a great start for one of the best directors of all time.

But the low expectations of our writer and our director's absolute devotion to hitting emotional story beats undercuts a really complicated and unique story from an urban high school.

"It's about letting the words and the images wash over you. It's about allowing them to surround you. It's about allowing God's spirit to draw you close." - Michael John CusickOn this episode of Restoring the Soul, Michael discusses the practice of Lectio Divina, a spiritual reading practice that deepens one's relationship with God. He reflects on the importance of the four movements: reading, reflecting, responding, and resting. Michael also shares personal experiences and insights, emphasizing the need to listen for words and images when engaging with scripture. Join him as he invites listeners to practice Lectio Divina using a passage from Matthew 11:28-30, known for teaching about learning the unforced rhythms of grace.

We jump from a New York nightmare to a fairy tale, albeit one with some real power plays. This week's movie is definitely lighter fare, but it's worth realizing just how empowering it was in its time. Secretaries didn't have the chance to work their way up, and hierarchies only allowed for certain women to make their way to the boardroom. So it was a big deal to say that someone working through various menial positions could get the power to make million or even billion dollar deals. What makes this week's movie great is the combination of its message, its attention to detail, and some truly fantastic chemistry between Harrison Ford and Melanie Griffith.

CLICK TO SUBSCRIBE ON YOUR FAVORITE PODCATCHER CONTENT WARNING: From 37:33-38:22, discussion of sexual assault and torture of a minor with respect to a fictional character. Also, discussion of infidelity, obsessive behavior, psychopathy, mental illness, murder, animal cruelty, suicide, drowning, strangulation, sexism, mental health stigma. 1987's movie is truly one of the greatest movies ever made about infidelity. This wasn't just a run-of-the-mill thriller - for many, this was a wake-up call. True, the movie takes things to extremes, but there's layers of meaning and thought in this film. That's mostly due to an outstanding cast, with Michael Douglas finding all the subtleties in being an asshole and Glenn Close giving one of her best-ever performances. The only thing holding the movie back is its 1987 attitude toward mental illness and sexual politics. Nevertheless, this movie is still one hell of a thriller that manages to ask a lot of questions with no easy answers.

This movie rivaled none other than Top Gun for the biggest box office win of 1986, and made a handful of Australians truckloads of cash. It lived large as the biggest Australian cultural export to America for nearly 30 years. And it's also just an absolutely awful movie. The comedy isn't funny, the romance isn't romantic, and almost half the movie is spent on a slow walkabout in the Outback. There's a handful of jokes and moments that loom large, but they're held together by the flimsiest of stories. And somehow, some way, the Academy saw fit to nominate the film for Best Original Screenplay.

Because this week's movie is a meditation on grief, loss, and how we intertwine with stories to help heal, and it's also full of really cool practical special effects. But while our director may have made the greatest submarine movie of all time, his ability to sort through the nuances of a really beautiful story was kind of a mess. For a 90 minute movie, this drags, and it's not only because the story is lost in translation. Yet the real travesty is missing the second half of the story, which pulls everything full circle in a truly beautiful, wonderful way.

Imagine a man with a shoestring disguise budget, the affable charm of the mediocre white man, and an absolute disdain for everyone around him.

This movie needed to let Chevy be Chevy and turn on all of his sarcastic charm. Instead, it relies a bit too much on bits, ignoring the mystery structure, and the one-liners outshine the fun of the characters. Splurge on some 49-cent fake teeth as we talk about Fletch this week on Macintosh & Maud Haven't Seen What?!

We continue our 80's Grab Bag with the true grandfather of all high fantasy movies, or at least the ultra-violent ones. Before Game of Thrones, before The Witcher, there was one man, bigger than 5 combined and able to crush his enemies, see them driven before him, and listen to the lamentations of their women. His name was Arnold Schwarzenegger, and before he become a bona fide movie star, he took on a cult classic role in this week's movie. No, the movie's not what you'd call “good,” but it's also doing more with what it has than a lot of similar movies of its time. Director John Milius didn't have the resources to hire ILM or call up the artists behind Alien and Blade Runner - he had to find a way to make it all work. And even though there's stretches where the movie's laughable, there's also some true badassery hidden within.

The 80's Grab Bag continues with a truly promising premise with some very flawed execution. While this movie had the chance to be Ferris Bueller's Day Off but with a ultra-dark twist, it winds up being a bit of a tepid rehashing of bad teen ideas. And it's mostly to do with the awkward, overly “erotic” and ultimately unnecessary sex. It's a shame our writer and director didn't really know what he was doing because he's got a cast of true up-and-coming stars and one hell of a synth-rock soundtrack. Ultimately, it all ends up falling a little flat. Put on some tighty-whiteys and crank up the Bob Seger as we talk about Risky Business this week on Macintosh & Maud Haven't Seen What?!

Our next film in the 80's Grab Bag series centers on a controversial story around a major public figure. Namely, why Faye Dunaway was ever given a chance at stardom. Because this film is a disaster of the most epic proportions. The writing? It's god-awful, making an incredibly complex and difficult story of childhood trauma into a laughable soap opera. The directing? It is truly, ineffably bad, bouncing from moment to moment with editing that would be side-eyed by z-movie directors from the 60's. And the cast? Never let it be said they're not committed (except you, Steve Forrest, no excuses), but literally nobody is able to figure out what the hell is going on. Forget about the tell-all aspect; this movie is a trainwreck of the highest order. Hide all your wire hangers as we talk about Mommie Dearest this week on Macintosh & Maud Haven't Seen What?!

It's a new season and a new series as we head to the 80's this time instead of the 90's and catch up on a number of movies we need to discuss. This week, we're talking about a truly groundbreaking, influential film. It's one thing to say that, it's another to watch spiritual (and literal) sequels or remakes get made of this story, over and over again. And yet this 1980 classic is rough, raw, but still very engaging, partially because of its novelty. No, it's not great, and its 2009 remake is maybe one of the worst movies we've watched for this show. Yet it's almost a requirement to see this movie about the pressure of young creatives searching for their golden ticket.

Our show wraps up season 6 with a quick recap of the 95th Academy Awards, in which Jimmy Kimmel only tiptoed over the line a few times and someone in a bear costume tripped Elizabeth Banks and accosted Malala Yousafzai. That was the wildest (and funniest moment) of the night in a still enjoyable Oscars - fun bits, good presentations, and lovely speeches. But the big winner of the night are those weirdos who made the weirdest and most beautiful movie of the year, Everything Everywhere All at Once. We can't help but be overjoyed at the result, considering we've been hailing the movie as our favorite for a whole calendar year. And while the Academy still needs to nominate some women in directing categories and re-examine their actor nominees, overall, it's been a pretty great year for movies, and for new voices.

Our Oscars ‘91 series comes to an end with the 64th Academy Awards, live from the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion. And what an…Oscars it was. Look, we won't mince words, this was a boring Oscars. No one looks particularly excited to be there, even Billy Crystal. At least he had an excuse, fighting through the flu to give a lackluster performance. This was the tail end of the Oscars taking itself far too seriously, and it shows. Though there's some good bits, some memorable jokes, and, if you know literally anything about Oscars history, a big winner for the night.
