Between the Frames Jon Gibson

Continuing our journey through the 70s, Jon and Joel talk about Death Wish, one of the vigilante movies of the decade starring Charles Bronson. They talk through broken systems, making a difference, and how followers of Jesus should lead by example.

Before they got really big, Roy Scheider and Gene Hackman starred in the 1971 film "The French Connection." Between the Frames looks at the film and talks about abuse of power, vigilantism, justice, and more.

In this episode, we look at the Hal Ashby film "Being There" starring the late, great Peter Sellers. Although the film is from the 1970s, its social commentary speaks even today. What happens to us when we fail to get background information and context? We breed misunderstanding and miss the essential practice of critical thinking.

Everything, Everywhere, All At Once not only one 2023 Best Picture at the Oscars, but six other Oscars as well including Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor and Actress. Between the Frames talks about the diversity of the case, the creativity of the script and story, and the need to take every moment as it comes.

Mental health in sports. Daddy issues. Criticism. Falling from grace. Joel and Jon talk about these topics and more as they look at season 2 of the popular Apple TV show Ted Lasso in anticipation of the release of the 3rd and final season.

David O. Russell's (Silver Linings Playbook, American Hustle, The Fighter) Amsterdam seems like a distant cousin to Knives Out and Glass Onion. Three friends uncover a conspiracy behind multiple murders. We talk through conspiracy theories, where we get our news from, and other stuff as Between the Frames looks at this film.
