Previous Episode
Seven Samurai
Adam and Brent are talking the 1954 classic 'Seven Samurai'! The fellas break down the structure of the movie, get into what makes Mifune's performance incredible, and the timeless place this movie holds in history, including the many projects it's influenced. It's one of the very best movies covered yet on Director Showdown (Brent had somehow never seen it) and it was an enlightening talk over a staple of modern cinema.

Next Episode
Mank
Adam and Brent revisit David Fincher and talk his new movie 'Mank'! They get into the origins of the screenplay written by Fincher's dad, the history of Citizen Kane and fraught process of writing the movie, as well as the dense themes in Mank! It's one of Brent's favorite movies from 2020 and he gets into a few reasons why that is (aside from the obvious 'he loves every movie about Hollywood' thing). They also get into why Fincher had a 6 year gap in between movies! It's another quick bonus ep in between Lean/Kurosawa episodes but we'll be back with them soon so enjoy the episode!
