  1. Interviews With "Summer Of Soul" Director, Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson & Editor, Joshua L. Pearson

    18 januari 2022 · 44 min

    Afspelen
    Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson's directorial debut, "Summer Of Soul," had its world premiere at last year's Sundance Film Festival, where it went on to win the Grand Jury and Audience prizes for Best Documentary. The accolades did not stop there. The film has garnered more wins than any other documentary film in the awards race this year, including a record-breaking six wins from the Critics Choice Awards, including Best Documentary Feature, Best Director, and Best Editing for Joshua L. Pearson. Thompson and Pearson were both kind enough to take some time to talk with us about the film, working with the mammoth amount of footage they had from the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival, their reaction to the film's success, and more. Please take a listen down below and enjoy! Lees meer

  2. Interviews With "In The Heights" Director Jon M. Chu & The Sound Designers

    17 januari 2022 · 44 min

    Afspelen
    "In The Heights" may have come out earlier in the year and got knocked down due to its poor box office performance. Still, the film received positive reviews, eventually found an audience on HBO Max, and has recently given its star Anthony Ramos a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy. We conducted several interviews about the film with its director Jon M. Chu (by Dan Bayer) & the sound team Lewis Goldstein and John Marquis (by Will Mavity). We hope you enjoy this look inside at what it took to bring the life and sounds of Lin-Manuel Miranda's Tony Award-winning show to the screen. Lees meer

    For our main podcast review this week, Josh Parham, Dan Bayer, Daniel Howat, Danilo Castro & guest Ryan C. Showers joined me to discuss "Scream," or "Scream 5," or "Scream 2022," whatever you want to call it, it's the fifth film in the beloved, popular horror franchise with a new cast which consists of Melissa Barrera, Jenna Ortega, Jack Quaid, and a few others, plus the original turning trio of Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox & David Arquette. What did we think of the story? The twists? The kills? The rumor? The characters and how this franchise continues to evolve twenty-five years since the original film while staying close to its roots (otherwise known as a "requel")? We discuss all of these plot points and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review down below. Please take a listen and enjoy! Lees meer

    Anyone who has seen Joel Coen's adaptation of William Shakespeare's "The Tragedy of Macbeth" knows what a scrumptious feast it is for the eyes and ears. The film had its world premiere at last year's New York Film Festival, and now, audiences can stream it on AppleTV+ to take in its meticulous design and powerhouse performance, led by Denzel Washington and Frances McDormand. Two previous Coen Brothers collaborators, composer Carter Burwell and production designer Stefan Decant were kind enough to spend time talking with us about their work on the film, their relationship with the Coens, especially Joel, their cinematic influences for this highly particular film, and more! Be sure to take a listen down below and enjoy this look into the making of one of the best films of 2021. Lees meer

  6. Interviews With "Dune" Director, Denis Villeneuve, Visual Effects Supervisor, Paul Lambert & Makeup Designer, Donald Mowat

    13 januari 2022 · 58 min

    Afspelen
    Denis Villeneuve's "Dune" is a high artistic achievement not just for 2021 but in the annals of cinematic history. It was a massive undertaking to adapt Frank Herbert's classic sci-fi novel for the big-screen (and this is only the first half of the story), but it paid off with solid box office results, tons of awards season buzz, critical acclaim & the announcement from Warner Bros. that "Dune Part Two" has officially been greenlit. Shortly following the news of this announcement, I had the pleasure of speaking with Villeneuve about his latest film. At the same time, my colleagues Will Mavity and Daniel Howat conducted interviews with two of the film's awards season contenders, makeup designer Donald Mowat and visual effects supervisor Paul Lambert respectively. We hope you enjoy these three conversations taking you deeper into the world of "Dune," which is now available to rent and own at home on 4K UHD. Enjoy! Lees meer

    11 januari 2022 · 50 min

    Afspelen
    For our second review this week, Josh Parham & Dan Bayer joined me to discuss the newest film from Academy Award-winner George Clooney. "The Tender Bar" is a sweet coming-of-age film now streaming on Amazon Prime Video, starring Ben Affleck, Tye Sheridan, Lily Rabe, Christopher Lloyd, and newcomer Daniel Ranieri. Based on a memoir by JR Moehringer, the film is filled with familiar, grounded, and nostalgic conventions of storytelling meant to inspire and warm our hearts. What did we think of the performances? The direction from Clooney? We discuss all of these points and whether or not Ben Affleck will receive an Oscar nomination for acting in our review down below. Enjoy! Lees meer

  8. Episode 277 - The 2022 Golden Globe Award Winners

    10 januari 2022 · 2 uur 19 min

    Afspelen
    For Episode 277, we decided to do things a little differently. I was joined by Lauren LaMagna, Josh Parham, ​Ema Sasic, Dan Bayer, Zoe Rose Bryant & Will Mavity. Together, we decided to have a laid-back, fun party as The Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced their winners live on social media while we recorded last night for the 79th annual Golden Globe Awards. As the show went on (and more alcohol was consumed), we reacted to the winners in real-time, gave our predictions for the SAG nominations & the BAFTA Longlists, discussed the state of the Oscar race and whether or not the Golden Globes mean anything this year. We have no new trailers to talk about this week, and I foolishly forgot to go over the polls during the recording (check out the results for last week's poll here), but we managed to answer some of your fan-submitted fan questions and more! We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did! Come, join the party! Lees meer

    For our main podcast review this week, Amy Smith & Dan Bayer joined me to discuss "The 355," starring Jessica Chastain, Lupita Nyong'o, Penélope Cruz, Diane Kruger, Bingbing Fan, Sebastian Stan & Édgar Ramírez. This is Simon Kinberg's second directed feature-length film after teaming with Jessica Chastain on "Dark Phoenix." Free of the "X-Men" franchise, is this the start of a new action franchise, or is this another dull, run of the mill, espionage action film we tend to see around this time of year?

    "Tick, Tick...Boom!" had its world premiere at this year's AFI Film Festival and was shortly available to stream on Netflix afterward. It has since gone on to receive Golden Globe and Critics Choice nominations for Best Picture and Best Actor for Andrew Garfield. We compiled a few interviews together, taking you deep into Lin-Manuel Miranda's feature directorial debut about the life of Jonathan Larson. First up is my interview with the film's star, Andrew Garfield, followed by Nicole Ackman's interview with the film's editors, Myron Kerstein & Andrew Weisblum, and then we end things with my interview with the film's screenwriter, Steven Levenson. We hope you enjoy each of these conversations about one of the year's best films. Lees meer

    Academy Award-winner Halle Berry's feature directorial debut "Bruised" debuted at the 2020 Toronto International Film Festival and was later picked up by Netflix and re-surfaced a year later with a premiere at the 2021 AFI Film Festival. The film is now streaming on Netflix and has received a tremendous response for Berry's lead performance in the film. Demanding both physically and emotionally, Berry gives it her all, resulting in some of the best work of her career. She was kind enough to spend a few minutes talking with us about the role of Jackie Justice, her work on the film, and much more! We hope you'll give it a listen down below. Enjoy! Lees meer

  15. Interview With "The French Dispatch" Cinematographer, Robert Yeoman

    31 december 2021 · 21 min

    Afspelen
    Wes Anderson's "The French Dispatch" was meant to premiere at last year's Cannes Film Festival but was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It finally premiered at this year's Cannes Film Festival, then made its way to the Telluride and New York Film Festivals before coming to theaters, and is now available to watch at home on digital and Blu Ray. The film is a visual feast which isn't surprising considering cinematographer Robert Yeoman has been Anderson's secret weapon in his filmography going back to "Bottle Rocket" in 1996. Yeoman was previously nominated for an Oscar for his previous collaboration with Anderson on "The Grand Budapest Hotel," and their latest offering might even be better! Yeoman was kind enough to take time out of shooting their upcoming film "Asteroid City" to talk about his work on the film, working in black-and-white, his friendship with Anderson, and much more! We hope you enjoy this look into one of the most visually splendid-looking films of the year. Lees meer

    Disney Pixar's latest film "Luca" has been nominated for both a Critics Choice and a Golden Globe Award for Best Animated Feature and is now listed as one of the films eligible for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. One of the reasons why the film has resonated with so many people is through Dan Romer's soaring, gentle and beautiful score. Dan was kind enough to spend some time talking with us at the beginning of the month (before the Academy unjustly left him off the shortlist for Best Original Score) about his work on the film, which you can listen to down below.

    Happy Holidays everyone! This week, Lauren LaMagna, Dan Bayer, Josh Parham & Daniel Howat joined our main podcast review to discuss "The Matrix Resurrections," starring Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Jessica Henwick, Jonathan Groff, Neil Patrick Harris, Priyanka Chopra Jonas & Jada Pinkett Smith. The fourth installment in the "Matrix" franchise nearly twenty years since "Revolutions" ended, the story of Neo and Trinity continues, this time solely directed by Lana Wachowski.

We discuss all of these points and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review, so if you haven't seen the movie yet, head over to the theater or fire up that HBO Max account and plug back into the Matrix with us.

    "The Tender Bar" is the latest film by George Clooney, which tells the simple but inspiring story of J.R. Moehringer (whose memoir the film is based on), who dealt with struggles related to his absent father and class. Production Designer Kalina Ivanov was responsible for not only crafting period sets during the pandemic but environments that would subliminally inform the audience about the characters, the journey J.R. was going on, and take us through multiple decades. She was kind enough to speak with me about her work on the film, which you can listen to down below.

    This is a big one for me..."The Lord Of The Rings" trilogy from Academy Award-winner Peter Jackson had a massive influence on me and is the main reason why I fell in love with movies. Now, for its 20th anniversary, I was fortunate to discuss the first installment in the trilogy, "The Fellowship Of The Ring," with Nicole Ackman and guest Brendan Cassidy from InSession Film. There's so much to touch on, including but not limited to the film's famous production, the cultural impact they had, the design and craft which went into them, the writing and performances from the cast. We do our best to go over all of these topics, plus the film's awards run in 2001. We hope to be back next year and the year after that to review and reflect on the 20th anniversaries of "The Two Towers" and "The Return of The King," respectively, but for now, we hope you'll subscribe on Patreon and indulge me as I gush over my favorite movie of all time for nearly three hours in our epic review of the great cinematic epic of our time.

    It cannot be overstated just how groundbreaking Lana and Lilly Wachowski's 1999 sci-fi action masterpiece "The Matrix" was at the time of its release and how influential it has been in the years since. Its popularity has spurred multiple sequels (including a new one next week), spin-offs, and imitators across the film industry who tried to replicate the lightning in a bottle the sisters caught. Starring Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, Carrie-Anne Moss, Hugo Weaving, and Joe Pantoliano in iconic roles, the film either turned them into household names or cemented their reputations. Twenty-two years later, we decided to go back to the Matrix and discuss the first film's themes, action scenes, characters, visual effects (including the legendary use of "bullet-time"), its awards run, and more! Joining me for this throwback podcast review, I have Josh Parham, Lauren LaMagna & Dan Bayer. Take that red pill, plug yourself back in and enjoy!

    Our "Twilight" marathon (finally) ends with the fifth installment in the franchise, "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2," once again, directed by Bill Condon. With the release of "Spencer," we went back to visit the film franchise that made Kristen Stewart a star along with her co-star Robert Pattinson. This was our fifth and final film in our marathon viewing from a few days ago, and you can tell we were drained and absolutely done with this franchise. A surprising third act brought us back to life, but not in the way we expected this mega-franchise would conclude. Take a listen one last time to hear our thoughts as we watch it for the first time, not knowing where any of it is going! We've already posted our commentary tracks for the first, second, third, and fourth films, which you can listen to as a preview on the site or entirely through our Patreon. Joining me once again are Nicole Ackman, Dan Bayer, guest Charlie Bright and popping in towards the end is a returning Eve O'Dea. So, our dear friends, grab yourself a cup of blood, fire up that Netflix account, and listen alongside us as we conclude our journey with Bella, Edward, and Jacob. Thank you to everyone who went on the journey with us!

    "Wolf" is the feature directorial debut of Nathalie Biancheri, and with her first film, she wanted to explore a topic which hasn't been shown much in cinema or even widely discussed in the world quite frankly, and that is pieces dysphoria, which is the experience believing one's body is that of the wrong species. The film is currently playing in theaters from Focus Features and contains another impressive and physically transformative performance from "1917" star George MacKay.
