We wrap up our Paddington series with a conversation about the absolutely delightful sequel to the first film, Paul King’s 2017 film ‘Paddington 2.’ Is Hugh Grant right in saying this may be his best film? What do the critics have to say? And how well does it work for us? Tune in!
We voyage from darkest Peru to London with one of our favorite bears, Paddington. In this episode, we kick off our exploration of the ‘Paddington’ films with Paul King’s 2014 ‘Paddington.’ It’s a sheer delight and yes, we brought our marmalade sandwiches.
In this minute of Joe Johnston’s 2011 film ‘Captain America: The First Avenger,’ Andy and Pete talk about their first experiences with the movie and character, as well as threading the needle.
What sorts of films was Chris Evans making before he took on the Captain America persona for nearly a decade? Andy and Pete look at one of the films he did right before Cap – The Losers from 2010.
Pete and Andy return for another member bonus episode. We jump back to 2010 to discuss what Joe Johnston was doing before he signed on with the MCU – it’s his 2010 film ‘The Wolfman.’
We wrap up our Sports series with Mira Nair’s 2016 film ‘Queen of Katwe.’ We return to Nair after talking about ‘Salaam Bombay!’ in our Coming of Age Debuts series. How does this one compare? How does it fit in the world of sports? And does it reach farther than most biopics?
We come to the end of our Coming of Age Debuts series with Olivia Wilde’s fantastic 2019 film ‘Booksmart.’ We have such a great time with this movie. Tune in to hear us talk about the film and what makes a coming of age film a coming of age film.
In this episode, we continue our Coming of Age Debuts series looking at Marielle Heller’s first feature – ‘The Diary of a Teenage Girl’ from 2015. It’s an assured film with a well-defined point of view. It may not be for everyone, but we love it. Tune in!
We’re in our hiatus between ‘Thor’ and ‘Captain America: The First Avenger.’ Seems like a perfect place to discuss the Marvel One-Shot ‘The Consultant.’
We’re continuing our series on Hong Kong New Wave director Ann Hui. In this episode, we discuss her 2017 war drama ‘Our Time Will Come.’ How historical is it? What do we think of the documentary framing device? And what do we think overall? Tune in to find out!
