2007: The Man from Earth and the Savages Never Did It

- Film History
We had a hard time finding movies for each other to see from 2007, as it was a banner year in movie history and we'd already seen a lot. Brad recommended that Jake watch "The Man from Earth," a microbudget film with a unique sci-fi conceit and no special effects at all. Jake gave Brad "The Savages," Tamara Jenkins' second film, starring Laura Linney and Philip Seymour Hoffman as disaffected siblings forced to united to take care of their ailing, estranged father.
2007 is considered by many to be the best year in modern movie history. "There Will Be Blood" and "No Country for Old Men" dominated at the Oscars, while "Zodiac" and "Michael Clayton" established enduring legacies. We had a lot of fun discussing this year.
Hosted by Brad Garoon & Jake Ziegler
