Hey film buds,
We're continuing this week to review as many of the movies of 2021 that we missed last year. Of which, there are many. For this episode we're looking at how two very different, but very distinct, directors handle history.
Our first film this week is Ridley Scott's The Last Duel, written by Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, and Nicole Holofcener. The movie is a gritty tale about male ego, pride, ownership, perception, and the consequences of action. Ridley is a meticulous director, and this film is no exception.
Second, we're looking at Paul Verhoeven's Benedetta. Verhoeven is known for his dramatic, intense, and sometimes unsubtle satirist most known for his modern and sci-fi features. With Benedetta, he takes the story of a real life nun and uses it for inspiration for a slightly different take on history. Joining us for the conversation is friend of the show, Madelaine, who was incredibly insightful and a joy to have back on.
Be sure to also check out our episodes on Showgirls and Tampopo. And if you haven't already, check out last week's episode.
You can find Madelaine @MadelaineD_ on Twitter and @madelained_ on Instagram. Also, check out Taking an Accurate Sexual History here.
Thanks y'all,
The Buds

Happy New Year Film Buds,
We're starting off 2022 by looking back on the movies we didn't review in 2021. Some of them were only in theaters, some we just didn't have time to watch, but regardless of the reasons why, they're the highlight of the show this month.
Beginning the month we're plugging into digital worlds as presented in the 20th Century action-comedy, Free Guy, and the legacy sequel of a groundbreaking franchise, The Matrix Resurrections. Joining us to discuss these films is friend of the show Nick Delgadillo.
On top of reviewing these films we'll also be sharing our best movies of 2021, what we're watching, and much more.
We hope your New Year is off to a good start, and that you enjoy the show.
Thanks y'all,
The Buds

Happy New Year's Eve film buds,
This episode is our last of 2021 and the final installment of our Holiday Movie Season. Joining us again is our creator, Henry, who was gracious enough to give us another hour of his shore-leave for the episode.
This week, we're reviewing and discussing the classic Christmas-Creature-Feature, Gremlins and it's camp, B-movie sequel Gremlins 2: The New Batch. They're modern marvels of puppetry and make for a fun final discussion of the year. On top of that, we discuss Christmas movies watched every year, No Way Home, and give listeners a final message for the New Year.
We hope y'all have enjoyed not just the month, but all of the content we've brought you in 2021. We'll catch y'all in 2022.
Thanks y'all,
The Buds

Film Buds
12/24/21 • 65 min
Hello and Merry Christmas film buds,
This week we have a very special episode for y'all. Not only are we celebrating our 200th episode, but we are joined by the original host and creator of The Film Buds Podcast, Henry. While he's been away, he hasn't seen much, but when he said he saw David Lowery's The Green Knight, we knew we'd found our Christmas movie for the week.
In the episode we discuss and review The Green Knight, as well as discuss the history of King Arthur and Sir Gawain's myths, What We're Watching, and more.
There are many things to be grateful for this time of year, but we're grateful for the gift of your continued support and listenership. Merry Christmas to all those celebrating, and to those who aren't we wish you safety, comfort, and joy.
Thanks y'all,
The Buds
PS Check out last week's episode, as well as our regular episode on David Lowery's earlier work and our bonus episode featuring Pete's Dragon.

Happy Holidays film buds,
this week we continue our analysis and review of varying Holiday/Christmas movies from different decades and regions. This episode, we begin with a discussion on Christmas movies and where they started, before beginning our main discussion: Criminal Christmas.
Much like all of the films that remind people to be Nice, sometimes, it can be fun to walk on the Naughty side. Instead of talking about Die Hard or Iron Man 3, we talk about the crime classics LA Confidential, 8 Women, and In Bruges.
Finding different Christmas and Holiday films to review has been a real pleasure, and we hope our listeners are getting as much out of it as we are. Be sure to check out last week's International Christmas episode or our Happiest Season Review, and definitely be here next week when we hit episode 200.
Thanks y'all,

Hey film buds,
Christmas, Hanukkah, and more are traditions that are celebrated around the world. So naturally, it makes sense that other global cinematic traditions would put their own stamp on the Holiday Season.
Our first Christmas movie from across the seas is Tokyo Godfathers, Satoshi Kon's 2003 anime from Japan. Joining in the discussion is an old friend of the show's, Austin Craver, who leant his expert anime insights to the show. Second, on the suggestion of a friend, Mark, we watch Rare Exports, a Finnish film directed by Jalmari Helander.
We hope you all are enjoying the Holiday Season and our dive into what makes a Holiday Movie. Be sure to check out last week's Hanukkah episode, and also check out Austin's show Third Impact Anime Podcast (@ti_anime on Twitter).
Happy Holidays y'all,
The Buds

Happy Holidays Film Buds,
With December comes the beginning of our Holiday Movie season, and we begin with Hanukkah.
Hanukkah is a beautiful holiday found in Judaism, a religious tradition and holiday under represented in film. To expand on people's understanding we decided to tackle Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights and A Rugrats Chanukah.
We also talk about our Vintage shopping, What We're Watching, and Clark Collis's new book, available for sale.
Thanks for listening y'all and Happy Hanukkah,
The Film Buds

Hey Film Buds of the world,
This week we continue International Cinema month with returning guest Clark Collis as we talk about Edgar Wright's Hot Fuzz. Clark joined us in September to talk about his new book You've Got Red on You (out now) all about the making of Shaun of the Dead, the first installment of the Cornetto Trilogy. He's a brilliant writer and a true wealth of information.
We hope everyone is enjoying our journey around the globe, and that our listeners in the United Kingdom enjoy our celebration of this English gem.
If you haven't already, check out last week's episode, and as always,

Hey film buds,
Beyond reviewing the Movies We Missed in 2021, we are also examining specific idea per episode. Today, we're looking at Period Films depicting stories from the 20th Century, across different genres from multiple directors. We are looking at three films crossing three decades.
First, we are talking about Being the Ricardos from Aaron Sorkin; a biopic on Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz in the fifties. Second is Edgar Wright's horror film Last Night in Soho, depicting the Swinging Sixties. We finish off our discussion with Wes Anderson's most recent film, and ode to journalists, The French Dispatch.
Each film had a dedicated team of people to help establish a sense of time period, and we want to answer the question "How does a film create historic periods accurately?" We also praise the Creative Teams that achieved it, talk about What We're Watching, and more.
We also have episode on Wes Anderson's The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou, The Royal Tenenbaums, and Edgar Wright's Baby Driver, Shaun of the Dead, and Hot Fuzz.
Also, be sure to check out last week's episode.
Thanks y'all,
The Buds
