Let the Movie Speak! Travis and Annie
-
- TV & Film
Travis and Annie may not always agree about movies, but they enjoy hashing out what film creators are saying. These thoroughly amateur film lovers take on decades and subgenres to discuss how the films reflect specific cultures and humanity at large. But only if Bonnie-the-Great-Dane will shut up long enough to let them record. Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ltmspod/support

"Vertigo" (1958)
Season 5, Episode 12
After discussing their week of watching, including Frances Ha (2012), & The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014), the duo of Travis and guest host Annie attempt to peel back the layers of what makes Vertigo (1958) so captivating now, why it didn't exactly grab audiences or critics at the time of it's release, discuss whether or not its protagonist is singularly problematic, and, of course, find themselves at the culdesac of: "Is It Worth Your Time?"

"Elevator to the Gallows" (1958)
Season 5, Episode 10
After discussing their week of watching, including Spencer (2021), & Frankenstein (1931), the boys hop on a plane to the seedy, black and white streets of Paris, France to delve into the world of Julian and Florence. They touch on what French New-Wave contributed to film, and how this particular entry leaves much to be desired if you care about things happening that matter in your movies. All of it culminates in an answer to their favorite question: "Is It Worth Your Time?"
