For all you proper film enthusiasts who would like to peruse the films of TruStory FM’s entertainment podcasts by release decade. Get ready for a firehose of film history in these here stacks.
We dive into Danny Boyle’s vibrant and dark film from 1996, TRAINSPOTTING, kicking off our conversations about it and its legacy sequel. How does the film hold up? What about the performances? Boyle’s directing? And how about that soundtrack? Tune in!
We wrap up our Slumber Party Massacre series with a conversation about Sally Mattison’s 1990 film ‘Slumber Party Massacre III.’ Why is this one completely disconnected from the story following the first two? Or are we meant to find a connection simply because some names are the same? Where’s the feminist angle? And why is this one harder to track down? Tune in for a fun conversation about the end of this trilogy.
We return to the world of Gizmo and the Mogwai with our October 2022 member bonus episode discussing Joe Dante’s wacky 1990 movie, Gremlins 2: The New Batch. It’s a crazy sequel. Does that make it better or worse? Certainly a lot to discuss!
We’re jumping into Richard Linkater’s world of Jesse and Céline – the Before trilogy. We kick things off exploring Vienna with Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy. How well does this minimalist conversational film with two Gen-Xers work for us? Tune in!
We wrap up our return to the Back to the Future trilogy with Robert Zemeckis’ finale from 1990: BACK TO THE FUTURE PART III. What do we think of the western direction they took? Does it hold up better than the second film? And why do all of their relatives look exactly the same? Tune in!
The Mandys take on the Amazon reboot of the baseball classic, “A League of Thier Own”.
The Mandys take on a classic in the mother-daughter-drug-alcohol oeuvre: Postcards from the Edge.
We end our 90s Comedies series and our 11th season with Tamra Davis’ comedy ‘Billy Madison.’ It was Adam Sandler’s first opportunity to carry a film, and he’s clearly found his audience. What did we think of it?
Our 90s Comedies series continues with a dip into black satire. In today’s episode, we’re talking about Stacy Title’s 1995 film ‘The Last Supper.’ Is it more relevant than ever with its take on divisiveness? Or does it not work at all? Tune in to find out!
We started this season with Amy Heckerling and we return to her in today’s episode with her 1995 loose adaptation of Jane Austen’s “Emma.” Join us as we talk about her film ‘Clueless,’ the second in our 90s Comedies series.
