86 - Arsenic and Old Lace
Bros Before Shows
06/21/19 • 29 min
This week, the Tiemstra Bros discuss another overlooked Frank Capra film: Arsenic and Old Lace! Did we really enjoy this goofy dark comedy, or did we find its shenanigans too hard to swallow? That's the tease, just watch the episode!

Next episode, for our series finale, something is rotten in this state of Denmark...

85 - A Dolls House
Bros Before Shows
05/31/19 • 31 min
Spoiler alert for Hereditary (2018). Yes, that does make sense in context. Buckle in fellas as we dive into some early proto-feminism in the form of Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House, specifically the *really* hard to find adaptation from 1973 with David Warner and Jane Fonda (with a brief mention of the... other 1973 adaptation which features Anthony Hopkins and Claire Bloom). Yeah, it's confusing. And feminist. Woo! Also Matt talks about the Mabou Mines production, but forgets the name of the company.

84 - Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
Bros Before Shows
05/17/19 • 34 min
Tennessee Williams strikes again! This time with a film version he hated! In this episode, The Tiemstra Bros. discuss how the film preserves so many surface level parts of the source material... while not quite understanding why Williams hated it so much.

83 - The Music Man
Bros Before Shows
05/03/19 • 41 min
Meredith Wilson's 1957 classic won the hearts of America, but will its 1962 adaptation pull a fast one 57 years later? Join the Tiemstra Bros. as they delve into what might be a timeless classic, or might be a 2 and a half hour re-staging of the original piece with the barest hint of a change.
Or...BOTH?!?! Co-hosted and edited by Matthew Tiemstra (@ClockworkPlay) Co-hosted and produced by Robert Tiemstra (@The_Timestar)

Episode 48 - A Raisin in the Sun
Bros Before Shows
02/09/18 • 31 min
Continuing Black History Month, the Tiemstra Bros. (in a surprisingly spoiler-free episode) delve into Lorraine Hansberry's 1958 Classic adapted for a 1961 screen!
Is Sydney Poitier able to do justice to the character he got a Tony nod for? Is the play really about his character, or is it about Claudia McNeil? And PIGLET?!?!

Episode 46 - Victor/Victoria
Bros Before Shows
01/26/18 • 39 min
It's cross-dressin' time! Well, it always is, but this time it is in 1934 Paris! Join the Tiemstra Bros. as we visit this '82 exploration of Homosexuality, cross-dressing, and gender politics in a world that doesn't quite understand any of it. Does it hold up, or is it a cringefest?

Episode 45 - Loves Labours Lost
Bros Before Shows
01/19/18 • 37 min
There was only so many Shakespeare Adaptations we could cover before we got to Kenneth Branagh, the Northern Irish actor and filmmaker who made some of the most iconic Shakespeare film adaptations! But for our first foray into his filmography, we're talking about one of his less popular efforts: Love's Labour's Lost!

07/05/19 • 36 min
We're finally here, at the end (or is it?) - tackling a biggie: HAMLET, THE PRINCE OF DENMARK. Join us, Marilyn, in the (as of this moment) series finale, where we choose "Not to Be" and go out on a high note on this Best Picture-winning classic from the Bard and Larry Olivvy!
