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.

Chinatown [1974]
1 RecommendationsJackie and Greg take on the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power for their episode on Roman Polanski's CHINATOWN. Topics of discussion include J.J. Gittes as a quintessential New Hollywood protagonist, great works by problematic artists (and whether separating the art from the artist is possible), the impeccably twisty script from Robert Towne, their personal relationships with the city of Los Angeles, and why it continues to endure as a shining example of neo-noir.

In the Mood for Love [2000]
Jackie and Greg revel in the sumptuous vibes that are Wong Kar Wai's IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE from 2000. Topics of discussion include the film's controversial new restoration, how it slots into WKW's filmography, its use of shorthand and subtle visual cues to convey the story, and how the extensive deleted scenes re-frame the events of the film.
