    Knives Out

    Knives Out is such a burger of genre. And yet Benoit Blanc describes the case as a doughnut. Bryan and Eliza talk Rian Johnson’s masterful whodunnit meets Hitchcock thriller, discussing how his giving the characters depth keeps the story from being a mere murder mystery and how he deliberately handled both genres to create a stimulating and suspenseful movie that subverts (almost) all one’s expectations. Also, a comparison to Brick (2005), a reference to Sleuth (1972), and a chat about Nathan Johnson’s wonderful music in this film. All clues point to a great podcast episode. So ladies and gentlemen, until the investigation is complete we’d like you to stay here at 2hoursperhour@gmail.com and join the birthday party at patreon.com/2hoursperhour

    A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood

    Hello neighbour. Welcome to 2 Hours Per Hour. Today, Bryan and Eliza talk A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood, a biographical drama film about Fred Rogers, the creator and host of Mister Rogers’ Neighbourhood. They discuss the life of the man himself and why he is so beloved and admired, the charming and dull parts of this movie directed by Marielle Heller, and how we can apply the values Mr Rogers exemplified in his actions and attitude to our own lives today. Also, they have a lovely chat about all the other movies they’ve seen since they last recorded. You’re exactly the sort of person that we like at 2hoursperhour@gmail.com or patreon.com/2hoursperhour

    Emma.

    Rich, handsome, clever. Autumn de Wilde (coolest name ever)’s Emma. is gorgeous. Visually decadent, casually and yet deliberately intelligent in its humour, with its measured, sweeping pace and editing - it reflects its titular character Emma perfectly. Bryan and Eliza have a relaxed chat about Autumn de Wilde, the rock photographer turned director,’s influences, compare this latest adaptation to Clueless and the 1996 Emma, and talk about - you guessed it - so much more. Please send all responses, whether regretful or derisive, to marriage proposals to 2hoursperhour@gmail.com or to 2 Hours Per Hour on Patreon.

    Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood

    Once Upon A Time... (wait for it) in Hollywood is the latest film by one of today's most admired and influential directors, Quentin Tarantino. Bryan and Eliza talk Tarantino's approach to filmmaking, especially his almost cartoonish violence and stylish dialogue (Eliza's not a fan of the blood, but she does like Kill Bill.) They wonder if movies are diminished by drawing heavily on nostalgia, relatability, or references to create an emotional effect. After so much more, they chat the real life history of the Manson family murders and how Tarantino handled Bruce Lee's and Sharon Tate's legacies differently, before finishing off with a lovely discussion about feet. If you need to hitchhike across LA, let us know at 2hoursperhour@gmail.com If you'd like to support 2 Hours Per Hour on Patreon, we will fully love you forever.

    The Two Popes

    Uncut Gems

    Uncut Gems does not give you a single moment to breathe. The Safdies do stressful with gritty brilliance and a empathetic, feverish pulse. Bryan and Eliza talk about that absolutely perfect ending, Adam Sandler movies, directors Josh and Benny Safdie’s upbringing and filmmaking mentality, why there were over 160 drafts of Uncut Gems, the deliberate contrast between the seasoned and first-time actors, and more. But only after they finish talking about Bryan’s favourite movies of 2019: Cats, Frozen 2, and - Maleficent 2. KG, please don’t lean on the glass. But please do contact us at 2hoursperhour@gmail.com

    1917 feat. Mr Foster

    This episode is a love letter to cinematographer Roger Deakins. Bit of a gimmick, but there is also a special guest today - Mr Foster, the absolute coolest English teacher there is. He joins Bryan to talk Sam Mendes’ war film “1917”. They discuss their initial thoughts after watching it, the masterful camera and logistical techniques behind the one-shot look, how the action is immersive but not sensationalised or surreal, the storyline, and the jarring effect of famous cameos. Also music, Peter Jackson, serving in the Taiwanese military, German dubbing, and of course, so much more. Run! Deliver your urgent message to 2hoursperhour@gmail.com

    Jojo Rabbit

    Jojo! (Imagine that in a vaguely European accent.) Bryan and Eliza talk Taika Waititi’s latest film, “Jojo Rabbit”, about a boy in Nazi Germany and his imaginary friend Hitler. They discuss why the movie felt average even though it’s clearly a great one, Taika Waititi’s deceptively simplistic humour, the wonderful characters, how propaganda influences, the background of the movie, various controversies surrounding the movie, and - you already know - so much more. Gotta support those New Zealand lads. That includes us at 2hoursperhour@gmail.com
