The movie: Harvey (1950)

Joshua and Ian discuss mental health and fitting into society as they watch this Jimmy Stewart classic. Can fantasy aid in being pleasant? And who's really the crazy one here? Is Harvey real or just a neat conceptHow are you, Mr. Wilson?

The movie: Bringing Up Baby (1938)

Joshua and Ian watch this screwball comedy involving a leopard and Cary Grant in glasses. Also there's money and some sort of story in there somewhere. Does it make any sense? Is it wise to analyze screwball comedy? Is Katherine Hepburn just stringing them along for the ride against their will?

The movie: The Razor's Edge (1946)

Ian and Joshua watch this adaptation of W. Somerset Maugham's classic novel about a man who pursues the ideals of life and challenges society around him. Sounds like The Fountainhead. Is it going to be better, or just another march through Hell playing the Devil's game?

The movie: The Apartment (1960)

Ian, and therefore the recording studio, has moved into an apartment, so it seemed fitting to watch this Billy Wilder classic. Expecting clever humor, we are blindsided with inflation and workplace trauma alongside the on-point wit.

The movie: The Omen (1976)
