For all you proper film enthusiasts who would like to peruse the films of TruStory FM’s entertainment podcasts by release year. Get ready for a firehose of film history in these here stacks.
We continue our journey through the 2013 Fangoria Chainsaw Awards Best Actor nominees with Ben Wheatley’s psychological hitman horror film “Kill List.”
We kick off our penultimate series for our 13th season looking at the five nominees for best actor at the 2013 Fangoria Chainsaw Awards with a conversation about the brilliant Joe Carnahan film ‘The Grey.’
The M:I franchise shifts gears as we chat about Brad Bird’s 2011 film “Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol.” What changed? Why does this one work so well? How crazy are the stunts on the side of that building? And how great is it having Benji in the field? We love it and have a great chat about it. Tune in!
We’ve been invited to Bella’s and Edward’s wedding, along with everyone in Forks it seems. That’s right, it’s time for Bill Condon’s adaptation of the first half of Stephenie Meyer’s final novel of her vampire/werewolf saga, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1. Is the camp back? What do we think of the wedding and honeymoon? What about the baby? The werewolf antagonistic subplot? Lots to unpack. Tune in!
We kick off our new series looking at Gareth Evans Indonesian action saga starting with his 2011 film “The Raid”, or “The Raid: Redemption” as it was released in the States. Just another action movie or something that feels like it’s excelling and adding something to the landscape of action cinema? Tune in!
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.
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 close out our 10-part 10 Year Anniversary series – all in part of celebrating our 10 years of podcasting – with a holiday treat. We’re looking at Sarah Smith’s 2011 film ‘Arthur Christmas.’ It’s an absolute delight of a film with a voice cast that brings their A-game headed by James McAvoy. Will this turn into your own annual treat? Check it out this holiday season then tune in!
Andy and Pete continue our 10 Year Anniversaries series with an episode that’s a crossover with our next series – a look at director Ann Hui. We’re looking at her 2011 film ‘A Simple Life,’ starring Andy Lau and Deannie Ip. It’s a touching and quiet film about a maid and the young man who’s family she’s been working for nearly 60 years, and how their relationship evolves when she decides to retire to an old folks’ home. The pace may not be for everyone, but we were both really touched by the film. Tune in to hear our conversation!
Pete and Andy hit the road with Kamir, Imraan, and Arjun on this week’s show as we continue our 10 Year Anniversaries series with Zoya Akhtar’s delightful film ‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara.’ It’s a road movie following three guys on an adventure vacation/bachelor party, and while it sounds a bit like ‘The Hangover,’ it’s anything but. We had a great time with it! Check it out then tune in!
