    A Very Specialer Episode

    Bob's elder daughter jumped at the chance to rebut what she viewed as the vile slander of a beloved (by her) Christmas film The Holiday. (And talk about Christmas movies in general.) Since she visited Bob for the holidays, they sat down and chewed the fat about Christmas cinema. Enjoy a bonus very specialer episode! Though, to be sure, beware the ever-lurking SPOILERS! 00:10 Intro 02:03 The Holiday 11:38 Elf 14:33 Bob is trying, and failing, to think of Rocky Horror Picture Show 16:31 Swingers 19:45 The Muppet Christmas Carol 27:45 Klaus 32:51 Die Hard 33:44 Bob should be (and is) ashamed. He got this twisted with Lethal Weapon which Black wrote. He did not write Die Hard, but there it is. We'll blame this on an exccess of "Christmas Cheer" in his eggnog. He's gonna do something similar (though perhaps not as bad) a few seconds later when he says Black was responsible for Iron Man 2, when it was Iron Man 3. 35:07 It's a Wonderful Life 37:42 Christmas in Connecticut 39:50 Holiday Inn and White Christmas 40:05 Bob's half-right, it opens on Christmas Eve and ends on New Year's 49:29 Miracle on 34th Street 53:20 Wrapping up

    A Very Special Episode

    Back after a longer interlude since the last time we tried to record we had catastrophic technical problems. After Bob's daughter complained to him that she can't listen to most episodes since they spoil movies she hasn't seen. So, this time around, a very special episode that only contains movies which she has already seen. If you're interested in having your tastes pandered to, reach out. Who knows? 00:10 Introduction 03:15 Three new movies for Mark 08:07 Bob's theme idea that he shoehorned in 09:26 Knives Out 23:10 The Holiday 36:51 The Map of Tiny Perfect Things 43:55 The Lost City 50:56 La La Land 58:19 Wrapping Up

    (Four) Soundtracks

    Trying something new again this episode; Bob and Mark discuss some soundtracks. What kind of musical expertise and knowledge do they bring to the topic? Almost nothing. Is it a list of their favorites? Not necessarily. You might like it anyway. Fewer spoilers than usual, though we disdain caution around such things as always. 00:00 Intro and disclaimer 03:57 First soundtrack In the Mood for Love (soundtrack) 11:25 Source for theme Yumeji 16:39 Second soundtrack Perfect Days (soundtrack) 21:34 The word Bob is failing to remember is "komorebi" 24:51 Third soundtrack A Clockwork Orange (soundtrack) 25:11 It's been a couple years since we talked about this film Kubrick/Hitchcock episode 31:50 The greatest piece of music ever written (in Bob's opinion) Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, 4th Movement (This is not the best rendition of it, but it's okay. ~ Bob) 33:26 Music that didn't make the soundtrack Wendy Carlos additional music (It was at this point in the edit that Bob discovered that Wendy Carlos was born Walter Carlos. Thus the original album title in the link.) 37:20 Fourth soundtrack Sparrow (soundtrack) 41:00 Clip from the film Stairs 42:11 Region B disc Aussie Blu-Ray 44:18 Winding down and wrapping up 44:58 Film scores Every Frame a Painting

    French Films

    This time around Bob and Mark lean right into the pretentiousness and discuss the French cinema they enjoy. (For the title we decided to go for the middle choice of "films;" seems midway between "cinema" and "movies.") We do less spoiling than usual, but you should still beware. The dreaded SPOILER may rear its head at any moment in our podcast. 00:10 Intro 03:45 Le Samourai 07:01 Ghost Dog: Way of the Samurai 11:26 Disorder (Maryland) 18:39 Au Revoir, Les Enfants 24:28 My Dinner With Andre 26:59 Three Colors: White 33:41 L'Argent 39:04 Wasabi 43:15 Le Cercle Rouge 46:50 Army of Shadows 51:43 Les Vacances de Monsieur Hulot 55:21 Odds and Ends The Count of Monte Cristo (2002), The Count of Monte Cristo (2024), Gankutsuou, The Count of Monte Cristo (Depardieu), Amélie, The Red Turtle, A Prophet 1:02:12 Wrapping up

    Amadeus

    This episode we catch up to 1985 and evaluate the 5 films from 1984 nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars. It's been a while since the last episode, but to make up for it, it's a bit longer than usual? Anyway, this will be the last decade in series that we look at for now since we've already done an episode on the Best Picture nominees from 1995, 2005, and 2015. As always, beware of the fearsome spoiler that lurks throughout, and enjoy! 00:10 Introduction 04:27 A Soldier's Story 18:25 Places in the Heart 27:40 A Passage to India 45:39 The Killing Fields 54:26 Interlude about ranking nominees by vote totals (Bob was right in his gut reaction: voting results are not made publicly available) 55:51 Amadeus 01:09:45 Films from this year featured in other episodes of our podcast: Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Star Trek III, The Terminator, Dune, Blood Simple 01:14:40 Random odds and ends to conclude Intro and Outro music excerpted without alteration other than length and volume from AcidJazz by Kevin McLeod under a Creative Commons (CC BY 3.0) license: ⁠https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/legalcode

    The Godfather Part II

    So...there were some challenges with this one. We do apologize for the slow release pace, but in this case the audio required a lot of work to tune up. We're talking Best Picture for the 47th Academy Awards (films from 1974). SPOILERS abound, as always. 00:10 Intro 00:57 A good year? 03:21 The Conversation 12:25 Gene Hackman interlude 13:35 (Yes, yes; we were thinking of A Few Good Men) 18:14 The Godfather Part II 34:53 Chinatown 48:53 Lenny 55:07 The Towering Inferno 1:02:34 Digression about film rights and availability of old films 1:08:00 Quick review of other notable films from 1974 1:12:40 Our picks for Best Picture 1:14:13 (We are moving ahead a decade)

    My Fair Lady

    It's been a little while, but we've jumped another 10 years closer to the present with an episode on the best films of 1964. Unfortunately for filmgoers it was a bit of a fallow year, but it does make for some good conversation. We mostly talk about the 5 Best Picture nominees, but a few more films come in for a mention in passing. As ever, we SPOIL the endings, middles...everything really about these movies without regard for what you might not have seen, so be warned. Watch the films first if you don't want to know how they end. 00:10 Intro to the podcast/topic 00:56 (Absolutely we did not get caught up to the current year) 03:34 Mary Poppins 18:03 Becket 29:55 My Fair Lady 31:12 Bob remembers correctly about Shaw and the Greek origin! 38:15 The superior original ending 43:53 Dr. Strangelove 45:51 The prior episode where we talked about Dr. Strangelove 46:25 Bob might be misremembering Hayden's late-life problems 52:00 Zorba the Greek 57:21 Bob gets on his high horse a bit 01:01:57 Picking our winner 01:05:18 Next episode plans and conclusion Intro and Outro music excerpted without alteration other than length and volume from AcidJazz by Kevin McLeod under a Creative Commons (CC BY 3.0) license: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/legalcode

Rowdy Rathore. (trailer) 21:57 How Bob sees films; film volume 25:09 First time watches not from 2024 34:48 Bob and Mark argue a bit about Free Solo 39:58 It's over!
