How you podcast doesn't matter... It's how you land! 

The Film Nerds are taking a journey over to France this week to examine Matthieu Kassovitz's timeless character study! Hear about the forces in France which gave rise to the "banlieue" - the country's very own projects, how the tensions between French African immigrants and police reached a boiling point in the early 90s, how this powder keg inspired Kassovitz & his close friends to make an artistic statement on this crisis, & much, much more. One of our deepest and most insightful dives into any film yet! You won't want to miss it!

In this week's episode of SIDEBOOB CINEMA the gang review the French film "Fat Girl" [2001] directed by Catherine Breillat.

We're in Paris this week with Celine and Jesse, as we sit down with the second film in the Before Trilogy. Long walks, long pauses, and how the heat makes us all a little wild.

This week on Remainders, Darren and Patrick take a look at the 1969 French film La Piscine. A now pivotal piece of French cinema and neo-noir styling, the story focuses on betrayal and longing when rich people start behaving bad. Death just looks better when it's dressed in style and driving a Maserati.

We're back from our hiatus! We're coming back to an arthouse favorite, Beau Travail. This film may not be filled with an over amount of dialogue, or even a incredibly involved plot, but it does give ample topics to discuss. We don't get to everything this movie has to offer, but we had fun while we covered what we could. Contact us at rollitpodcast@gmail.com or follow us!

Welcome to Screen Tea Podcast! Join your hosts this week as they cover the 2008 French Extremism film Martyrs (directed by Pascal Laugier). There's no sugar coating this one, folks; it's brutal, it's violent, it's horrific...but also, as Lisha harps on, it's beautifully written and contains multitudes (including incredible effects, as you'll hear Jules, erm, dissect). Listen as your hosts debate over the meaning of the ending, the big picture of the film, and how they'll never look at staples the same way again (insert grimace here). 

Sources for this episode include imdb.com, wikipedia.org, and rottentomatoes.com.

Welcome to 15 minutes of Flog, the bitesize companion piece to the world-renowned FilmFloggers podcast! Here you'll find a Notorious waffler and a renowned Bullsh*t trivia expert attempting to condense their useless long-winded points into just 15 minutes! 

No bullshit this episode, as The Thomas makes his long-awaited 15 minutes of Flog debut. (Actually, this is his second 15-minute flog appearance as his proper debut will be coming up in our 31 days of horror flog, but who's counting?)   

Either way, was it worth the wait? 

Nope.

Are you a Tight Arse?

(Head Over To Our Website for The Full Episode Notes!)

Topics crammed into the 15 minutes include:

• Was an orange vested Bruce Willis the last time we saw the real Bruce Willis? 
• How did someone that svelte ingest stones that big? 
• Why is she blue? 
• How is she so good at singing opera with a belly full of bricks? 
• Chris Tucker, not Chris Rock...What was that? 
• Would you go all night long all night ohhhhhh with Ruby Rhod? How is the great evil making calls from a giant ball of fire? 
• Gary Oldman...The hair? The plastic headpiece? Does anyone else bleed HP sauce? 
• Are you a fan of dungarees? 
• What were you doing at 16? And why weren't you writing The Fifth Element? What was I doing? Pulling another all-nighter searching for the golden warthog on Halo 2, most likely. Worth it.

They're baaaaack! After a long run of special episodes, Minki and Tracy get back to their original format and discuss this mysterious horror thriller that piqued Tracy's interest because of the name, but piqued Minki's interest because it was only 75 minutes long and these two recorded late on a Sunday. No time for two hour movies tonight! Things you'll learn in this episode: 1. Tracy misses the days of pagers even though her mom was the only one that ever paged her 2. A cool band from Normandy called Christine created the synth soundtrack to this strange film (go listen) 3. This french film director gave no explanation to what is really happening, but never fear...the hosts have their theories. Check out the discussion about an ominous deserted desert town and a (muscular) traveling salesman who sees a strange red light appear in the sky before getting strange texts on his pager and then attacked by masked assailants. Who is bad? Who is good? What the eff is happening? Is he a prisoner of this town...or of his own mind? Email if you have a different opinion about the movie!

What do Tom Cruise, Patrick Swayze and Sam Rockwell have in common? No clue. Minki only spied on one of them. But apparently Minki and Tracy want to talk about all three of them for a while before kicking off the convo about this week’s movie. After some chatter about cut-off shirts, scientology and creepy roles that forever change the way you see actors, the hosts discuss this French Extremity film that came out with a barrage of dark and gruesome horror films in the early 2000’s which took torture porn (the ever popular sub-genre in America at the time) to a whole new level. Turns out, many actresses didn’t want to play the two lead roles in this film and it’s not hard to see why. As the director of this film noted, Martyrs and/or French Extremism is not about torture...it’s about pain. Hopefully it’s not painful for you to listen to these two retell this whole movie because it’s one of Tracy’s favorites. Au revoir!

Tracy and Minki watched a porn on Mother’s Day...or so it seems. That’s right—these dedicated hosts ditched their moms to watch and discuss this Mexican horror. There is definitely lots of nudity, close-up shots of genitalia and graphic sex scenes in this unique film. Oh wait, there was also some murder and cannibalism, but definitely less of that in this art-house, surreal erotic horror. Nice camera and lighting work, mixed with a solid portrayal of a mad man who has a very strange desire to return to the safety and warmth of his mother’s womb (HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!) should make up for the strange plot and excessively long scenes, but...not so much. For the most part, this movie doesn’t live up to its name...as a horror. Though, maybe the word “Flesh” was more indicative of all the nakedness. So, tune in to hear them recount this dreamlike, or rather, nightmarish movie.
