    Ep. 050 - Derek Cianfrance's Blue Valentine (2010)

    “I don't know. I feel like I should just stop... You know? Just stop thinking about it, but I can't. Maybe I've seen too many movies, you know? Love at first sight. What do you think about love at first sight? You think you could love somebody by just looking at them? But the thing is, man, I felt like I knew her.”

    Ep. 047 - Orson Welles' F For Fake (1973)

    Few filmmakers are as influential as the great Orson Welles. Few are as infamous. A man of magic, lies and art, Welles brings to light three fakers, one being himself in our first documentary. A documentary that observes the fakeness of art, the fakeness of "experts" and whether or not truth should get in the way of a good story. This week we return to the Criterion Collection with F for Fake!

    Ep. 045 - Spike Jonze's Adaptation (2002)

    Ep. 045 - Spike Jonze's Adaptation (2002)
    Ok...how should I start this episode summary? Should I start with the reason it took so long to upload this episode? No I don't' have a good excuse for that and people are just going to think I'm some kind of loser. Maybe I should talk about the movie. But I hate when people go on and on in the description about what the podcasters talk about in the episode. I know! I'll make it very meta, like how the movie is meta. I'll write out what I'm thinking and it will be cleaver and people will want to listen to the episode even more. Nah! I don't think people even read the episode descriptions. Honestly they're kind of a pain to write. (Wait...did I just use the right they're/there/their? they. are. Yeah I'm good. Maybe I should say the title of the movie. No because that's what the episode title is for)

    Ep. 044 - The Daniel's Swiss Army Man (2016)

    Ep. 044 - The Daniel's Swiss Army Man (2016)

    Instead of describing our Swiss Army Man episode, I thought we should hear from the critics of the movie:

    "Incredible and not in a good way." says Wendy Ide of the Observer (UK)

    "By the end, having failed in its attempt at cleverness, the movie veers into sentiment, the inevitable last resort. The movie fails at that, too." raves Mick LaSalle of the San Francisco Chronicle

    "Dano, as a dude who washes up on a desert island, and Radcliffe, as a farting corpse, go their own nutter way. This is such a baller of a movie that you keep wishing it would be better than it is." cries Peter Travers of Rolling Stone
