02/28/25 • 61 min

For their 189th episode, two romantic film critics, two pretty dads, and two school teacher with hearts of gold, Will Johnson and Don Shanahan, cover one more Oscar contender before the big awards. With Sean Baker's "Anora" surging up the Oscar odds charts with wins at the Critics Choice Awards, BAFTAS, and the top guilds for producers and directors, they felt the opportunity was there to announce their own tepid response to the new frontrunner.

White Sands (1992)

Cinephile Hissy Fit

01/10/25 • 51 min

For their 182nd episode, two suspicious film critics, two Corvette-driving dads, and two sheriff-wannabe teachers, Will Johnson and Don Shanahan, dipped their toes into the wellspring that is the movie resume of the Oscar-nominated Willem Dafoe. This week's show covers 1992's "White Sands," directed by Roger Donaldson and starring Dafore alongside Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, and Mickey Rourke. Will has long been a huge admirer of Willem Dafore, but, much to our mutual surprise, he had never heard of or seen "White Sands" until Don recommended it. Those fresh eyes paired with a veteran's make this a fun talk. Come learn more and stay for the mutual love and respect that fun movies encapsulate. Enjoy our podcast!
