Films at First Sight Joe Ferry & Graham James

This episode we are joined by Rachel and Ariel from The More Deadly Podcast to chat about Věra Chytilová's Daisies, a movie near and dear to Joe's chaotic heart. For maximum chaos, subjects include food fights, blacklists, feminsim in film, taking mushrooms and talking to the police, and surprise appearance from Ariel's cat! Check it out!!

Join us in the cozy little mountain town of Jim Torpe for The Seventh Annual Jim Thorpe Independent Film Festival as we regale the sights and sounds of one of Pennsylvania's BEST Film Festivals. We talk creepy Irish tales, locally shot tearjerkers, and finally find something tense enough that it forced Graham to flee the theater. JTIFF really does have something for everyone!

Instead of our socials with images of what we watched, we're sitting down to chat about some of our favorite (and least favorite) films that we watched in March of 2024. And of course we get wildly distracted along the way. So join us for our inaugural episode of Firsts of the Month!

Welcome to Off the Shelf, where we dive into the world of physical media. In our first episode, Joe and Graham look at Canadian International Pictures' release of The Mob (La gammick) (1975), a crime driven character study which is accompanied with the animated short film Hunger (1974) and a wonderfully Canadian mixtape of Quebec crime film trailers.

On this episode of Exposure Time, we preview the documentary, Ennio, a retrospective look at the work of master film composer, Ennio Morricone..........
sorry I got lost thinking of the sweeping beauty that is the theme to One Upon a Time in the West. Well, at this point, might as well save all of the gushing, flowery language, and superlatives for the episode. It's a good one.

Joe and Graham welcome their friend and FFS alumnus Caitlin Grant, host of Plug It Up podcast, on a deep dive into a sincere and heartwarming drama about the people who shine brightest in our lives and how they inspire us to our greatest potential... jk, it is straight-up about a dude who makes lanterns out of human flesh.  What?
