03/03/23 • 103 min

Britt brings to us our second film from The Archers (Powell & Pressburger) and takes us the ballet stage as we discuss the technicolor gem: “The Red Shoes”. Do some leg stretches and hit your spotlight as we break down this film: the Moira Shearer love triangle, the Hans Christian Andersen story the film is based on, and the absolutely magical ballet sequence in the middle of the film. BUT WAIT – is this another film that the three hosts don’t agree on? You’ll have to tune in to find out. Also, this week Britt recommends the 2018 version of “Suspiria” (currently on Prime), Joey recommends “The Menu” (currently on HBO Max0, and Adam recommends “Smile” (currently on Paramount+).

136 - The Lighthouse

Joey continues his selections in Season 4 and he’s keeping it dark, black & white, and slightly disturbed as we chat about Robert Egger’s sophomore feature: “The Lighthouse”. The crew hits a stumbling block with this film as it is the first film with no consensus as to whether or not it should be in the book. Britt, Joey, & Adam break down the dialogue rooted in the time the film is set, uber attention to details, and the menacing birds. Also, this week Joey recommends “Midsommar”(currently on Kanopy & Showtime), Adam recommends “Tár” (available to rent of most major platfoms), and Britt recommends “The Ritual” (currently on Netflix).

138 - The Leopard

Adam brought a curve ball to the game this week with a film none of the hosts had seen. We go to Italy (via a tall, handsome, American man) to discuss the Luchino Visconti epic: “The Leopard”. Take a long horse ride down a dusty road with us as we the discuss the gorgeous design of the film, the director-unapproved “American Cut” of the film, and whether or not Burt Lancaster works in this film. Also, “Justice for Concetta”, Martin Scorsese’s Sight and Sound picks, and some surprise answers to whether or not this should be in the book. Plus, this week Adam recommends “Dirty Dancing” (available to rent on most major platforms), Britt recommends the TV series “The Great” (currently on Hulu), and Joey recommends “Mean Streets” (currently on Freevee).
