Drew Wendt of Do You Like Apples? has one word to say to Josh and Andrew, just one word: Garfunkel.This week, Drew seduces our hosts into talking about Mike Nichols' New Hollywood classic The Graduate, a film that appears to defy its reputation as an iconic Boomer comedy. Getting into the nitty gritty of all the power dynamics, WASP-y suburbia, youthful aimlessness, grey morality, and just how catchy "The Sound of Silence" is, the trio dive deep into a movie that leaves them coming away with new thoughts after every rewatch. Then, they have One More Thing, with the 1980 Roeg psychodrama Bad Timing, (starring Art Garfunkel as himself but if he went into psychology) and Anthony Mann's police procedural noir (and documentary?) T-Men.Expect no episode next week as Josh and Andrew will be attending SLIFF, but they'll be back in time for Max Havey's lesson on the film that made the STL Magazine writer fall in love with movies, Wes Anderson's Rushmore! In two weeks, make sure to listen in on this crash course in one of Anderson's early works.Until then, read on at thetake-up.com and follow us @thetakeupstl on Instagram, Twitter, Letterboxd, and Facebook.

Welcome to another episode of Death Don't Do Fiction, the AIPT Movies podcast! The podcast about the enduring legacy of our favorite movies! It's November, so that means it's time for our “Xenovember” series, where we cover movies from another world! In this week's episode, Alex, Tim, and guest Chrissy Kurpeski discuss Tobe Hooper's trippy 1985 exploration of Britain being invaded by space vampires, Lifeforce!Disturbingly casual nudity! Drained corpses! Exploding dust bodies! Floating blood! A 150-mile-long gothic space umbrella! London in crisis! A surprisingly open-minded British government! Creepy spiral contact lenses! Unexpected narration! Scientific stick poking! A very sweaty cast that includes a fearless Mathilda May, a naturally voyeuristic Peter Firth, and a pre-Star Trek Patrick Stewart! A thrillingly weird movie with incredible practical effects from the legendary John Dykstra, and a script from Alien's Dan O'Bannon, this intensely-British movie is simply too strange to be forgotten!In addition, Chrissy shares her spoiler-free thoughts on Heart Eyes and Weapons, Alex does the same for A House of Dynamite and 1995's Species, and Tim says he enjoyed watching the majority of The Phoenician Scheme!You can find Death Don't Do Fiction on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

The boys suit up for a cuddle party inside a custom-sewn pajama onesie crafted by Eric himself, and settle in to watch Peter Greenaway's 1985 arthouse oddity A Zed and Two Noughts. Along the way, they wrestle with time-lapse photography of real decaying animals, an onslaught of wieners, porno–Wes Anderson–style symmetry, and some very horny snails. Not for the faint of heart—this one dives deep into some seriously heady, disturbing territory. But stick with it, trusted listeners… the weirdness just might be worth the ride.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay decide to live deliciously while wrapping up Spooky Sleazon with a modern horror classic, 'The Witch.' After tending to his chores, Bombay opens up the episode by telling a story when he received a slew of sultry snaps from a girl who practices Wicca and it somehow ended horribly. Then the boys jump into the movie that went on to define A24 horror — back when that meant something — and discuss the epitome of a slow burn horror done right. There's talk of Robert Eggers' impressive craft and attention to detail that makes him an occult Wes Anderson, for a movie that would seem a slog but breezes by and culminates in a bonkers third act. Of course the fellas have to give some love to Anya Taylor-Joy's breakout performance, and Ralph Ineson's haunting voice. Don't worry, they also spend sufficient time praising the GOAT goat performance from Black Phillip, and bemoan the fact he wasn't given zany 'Leprechaun'-esque zany sequels.

"The protection of interiority is the central motivation of Metamodernism." So says Greg Dember, a Seattle-based musician, songwriter and independent researcher in Metamodernism. As the co-founder of the What Is Metamodern? website with Linda Ceriello, PhD, Greg's writing and podcast appearances speaking on metamodernism have helped popularize the terminology outside of academic discourse through accessible writing. He is the author of Say Hello To Metamodernism!: Understanding Today's Culture of Ironesty, Felt Experience, and Empathic Reflexivity (2024 Exact Rush). He is also a co-editor of the forthcoming multi-author volume, My Impossible Soul: The Metamodern Music of Sufjan Stevens (Bloomsbury/Lexington). He holds a BA (1987) from Yale University.____________Greg and Linda's Metamodern site - https://www.whatismetamodern.comGreg's article on the 11 methods of Metamodernism - https://medium.com/what-is-metamodern/after-postmodernism-eleven-metamodern-methods-in-the-arts-767f7b646cae Greg's book on Metamodernism - https://www.amazon.com/Say-Hello-Metamodernism-Understanding-Reflexivity/dp/B0DHGFKZ8W/__________In this conversation, I sit down with Greg to explore metamodernism as the cultural backdrop that's emerged since roughly 2000, taking over from postmodernism's ironic detachment. We discuss how metamodernism oscillates between modern earnestness and postmodern irony to defend the significance of interiority and felt experience. Greg introduces his framework of 11 metamodern methods—including empathic reflexivity and the double frame—and we examine how artists like the Daniels (Everything Everywhere All At Once), Wes Anderson, Bo Burnham, and even The Beatles navigate this territory. The conversation ranges from David Letterman's evolution to Don Quixote as a proto-metamodern text, exploring how this sensibility has spread from indie niches into mainstream culture, and what it means for how we make and experience art today._____________⏳Timestamps0:00 Episode Intro2:26 Greg's current work: Sufjan Stevens book3:26 What is metamodernism?

Welcome to Director Watch! On this AwardsWatch podcast, co-hosts Ryan McQuade and Jay Ledbetter attempt to breakdown, analyze, and ultimately, get inside the mind of some of cinema's greatest auteurs. In doing so, they will look at their filmographies, explore what drives them artistically and what makes their decision making process so fascinating. Add in a few silly tangents and a fun game at the end of the episode and you've got yourself a podcast we truly hope you love. On episode 120 of the Director Watch Podcast, the boys discuss the next film in their Yasujirō Ozu series, Floating Weeds (1959). On the penultimate episode of the Ozu series, the boys take a look at the second feature film form 1959 from the Japanese director that was also a remake of his own work from 1934, A Story of Floating Weeds. In retelling this tale of an estranged father that returns with his theater company to the city former love and their son live in, Ozu explores the dynamics of jealousy and how the decisions of the past shaped the present and there is no fixing them because explore them could lead to even more disastrous outcomes that shape the future of the characters. Heartbreaking and real, Ozu perfected this storyline the second go-round with a prickly film about how keeping things a secret might be best for all. Ryan and Jay break down their thoughts on the film, the idea of a director remaking their own work, how harmful the ending is to all involved, films releasing in the Fall that Jay will love, their thoughts on the packaging of the new Wes Anderson box set, and so much more. You can listen to the Director Watch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music, YouTube and more. This podcast runs 1h38m. The guys will be back next week to conclude their series on the films of Yasujirō Ozu with a review of his next film, An Autumn Afternoon. You can rent it via iTunes and Amazon Prime rental in preparation for the next episode of Director Watch. Till then, let's get into it. Music: MUSICALIFE, from Pond5 (intro) and “B-3” from BoxCat Games Nameless: The Hackers RPG Soundtrack (outro).
Visionary architect Julien Sebban takes us on a captivating exploration of his creative universe, Uchronia. Known for his theatrical use of color—particularly his beloved orange—Julien has an extraordinary talent for crafting spaces that evoke emotion and challenge traditional design norms. During our conversation, he reveals how his education at the Architectural Association in London laid the foundation for Uchronia, allowing him to integrate his own DNA into each project. Discover how his ideal creative day unfurls with coffee, music, and deep conversations with his team, all of which fuel his drive to create environments brimming with joy, happiness, and surprise.Julien's journey into large-scale installations across diverse industries reveals the unique challenges and inspirations he's encountered along the way. His adventures in Australia and a groundbreaking art installation at Coachella—a gigantic inflatable flower bouquet—illustrate his knack for transforming wild concepts into tangible experiences. The unexpected deflation of this installation on its final night offered a poignant reminder of art's ephemeral nature, leaving behind an emotional imprint that resonates with its audiences even after the spectacle has ended.As our discussion steers towards the intricacies of Parisian architecture, Julien shares insights into the interplay of light, color, and mood in his designs. With projects ranging from collaborations with the Paris flea market to an unexpected partnership with IKEA, Julien's work reflects a dynamic blend of tradition and modernity. We also touch on his dream projects for artists like David Hockney and the cinematic allure of directors like Wes Anderson. Throughout, Julien articulates an unwavering admiration for the United States' bold culture of creativity and innovation, contrasting it with Europe's more cautious approach, and highlights how AI serves as a powerful ally in the creative process.

Continuing our horror parody/comedy Halloween season, we move from slasher films to zombies as we take a look at The Dead Don't Die from 2019. This was a particular divisive movie when it released, pairing the sardonic sensibilities of a Wes Anderson movie with the more traditional undead tropes. We talk about how well this works out, if the theme is too heavy-handed, and a whole lot more in this appreciation of Bill Murray and Adam Driver. We're also drinking Wicked Grove (Aldi) Black Cherry Imperial Hard Cider!Approximate timeline0:00-10:00 Intro10:00-20:00 Beer talk20:00-end The Dead Don't DieHaHaHalloween continues all Halloween season!

Sean and Amanda return to continue their yearlong project of listing the 25 best movies of the 21st century so far. Today, they discuss Wes Anderson's ‘The Royal Tenenbaums,' one of the greatest father-figure movies of all time (starring Gene Hackman, giving one of the best father-figure performances of all time). They explain why they made the difficult decision to make this the official Wes Anderson selection for the list, discuss why there is nothing among his filmography that quite matches this unique energy, and wonder whether this is the best collection of needle drop moments from any Anderson movie ever made.
