08/01/23 • 77 min

Jackie and Greg visit the seemingly sleepy town of Lumberton for David Lynch's BLUE VELVET from 1986.

It's Greg's turn to pick the film this week and he takes the opportunity to screen Robert Greenwald's roller disco XANADU for Jackie. Topics of discussion include the film's camp factor; the incredible music by Electric Light Orchestra, Cliff Richard, and The Tubes; a debate on whether it's better than GREASE; the animated interlude by Don Bluth; and how it makes for a fitting final bow from the great Gene Kelly. The team is joined by Greg's fiancée, Molly!

Scene and Heard - 🔒 Pink Flamingos [1972] // S'mores
play

02/23/23 • 56 min

Subscriber-only episode

In the inaugural episode in their "S'mores" series, Jackie and Greg splash around in the filth that is John Waters' PINK FLAMINGOS from 1972. Topics of discussion include Waters' entrepreneurial skills and background, the Manson-family vibe running throughout, Divine as a shit-eater and icon, and why it's endured as one of the most transgressive pieces of cinema ever made. The Prince of Puke has never been more disgusting.
The monthly "S'mores" series is an offshoot from our main series, where Jackie and Greg explore less "prestigious" films, which typically fall under the banner of underground, cult, camp, genre, and B-movies. "S'mores" episodes are unlocked by becoming either a Patron or Friend of the Show (see below). These episodes will be released on the last Thursday of the month going forward.

Topics of conversation include Peckinpah's personal life, Old Hollywood vs. New Hollywood, the film's staginess, the magic of Warren Oates, and why Peckinpah's face deserves to be blasted down off the Mount Rushmore of "Great American Filmmakers". You've never heard them this vicious.
