    OSCAR SNUBS: The King of Comedy (1982)

    It’s been a bit since we had an old-fashioned movie disagreement but this one was a bit polarizing. Likely because this was a real curveball from two of our faves, Scorsese and De Niro. The intensity and emotional weight is there, but it’s wrapped in a truly bizarre, sinister comedy that’s just as haunting as it is funny. This movie became much more important after its release, and it sticks with you over time, but you’ll have to see for yourself if you think it’s worth it or not. Just give us one shot on the air and then we’ll gladly go off to jail as we watch Paper Moon on Have a Good Movie!

    OSCAR SNUBS: Paper Moon (1973)

    CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of child abuse. Something was in the air in 1973 where people wanted nostalgia and con artists in their films. But while George Roy Hill teamed up with Redford and Newman for the utter perfection of the genre, Peter Bogdanovich followed up one classic film with another underrated gem. Nothing about this movie is particularly remarkable, save the outstanding performance by 9-year-old Tatum O’Neal. Instead, it’s just an aggregate of everyone telling a really good story. I’ll give you this 5 dollar bill rather than the dollar change but you can get a 20 instead as we watch Paper Moon on Have a Good Movie!

    OSCAR SNUBS: Klute (1971)

    In a decade of darker, boundary-crossing films, this week’s film is just under the rader for having some of the darkest undertones of all. And that’s beyond the fact that it might be one of the best portrayals of sex workers on screen, refusing to judge its subject on anything but her actual character. I mean, yes she is being stalked by a violent powerful man to get murdered, but it has nothing to do with her means of income. the problem is that this movie is just plain weird, and not for any real reason. But it’s worth the price of admission for Jane Fonda giving an absolutely stunning performance. Sit back and relax and fall lin love with Bree as we watch Klute on Have a Good Movie!

    OSCAR SNUBS: The Manchurian Candidate (1962)

    Communism! A menace to all god-fearing Americans in the 1960s, a real travesty against society. At least that was the background that this novel and film dropped into to make a much larger point about the horrors of war and trauma. But even more than a knotty, complicated conspiracy thriller, this is a really unique film from an underrated director and shockingly talented cast…for the most part. Frank Sinatra is pulling quadruple duty here with producing, acting, cajoling studio heads, and really, really acting and it pays off in a major way, even if this was a little too weird for the Oscars. Watch out for the Queen of Diamonds this week as we watch The Manchurian Candidate on Have a Good Movie!

    OSCAR SNUBS: A Face in the Crowd (1957)

    1957 came hard for us with the ever-menacing presence of…Andy Griffith? This one is a real underrated gem, a heady brew of media stardom, political power and ego that makes an aimless narcissistic drifter into a king drunk on his sway. Everyone is fantastic in this movie and it has absolutely zero hardware to show for it - a fact that would be utterly shocking if not for the notes we get into with the trivia. Get yourself hyped up with a couple of Vitajex as we discuss A Face in the Crowd on Have a Good Movie!

    OSCAR SNUBS: The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)

    We're coming in this week like a flying saucer into Earth's atmosphere with a movie that's both way ahead of its time and also incredibly dated. Flying saucer movies could be a dime a dozen in the atomic age, but only a few managed to capture the public's imagination like this week's movie. This is the template for a lot of sci-fi to come, even though it suffers from some haphazard execution and some frankly terrible acting. Make sure you're on Gort's good side and don't get vaporized as we discuss The Day the Earth Stood Still on Have a Good Movie!

    OSCAR SNUBS: HIs Girl Friday (1940)

    Next up in the Oscar Snubs is the paragon of fast-talking screwball comedies. Except that this movie might be too fast. That's right, when you tell five jokes in 30 seconds, and they're all dated back to the late 30's, at some point you're no longer funny, you're exhausting. It's impeccably executed, but utterly meaningless, and by the end you're just happy to turn the movie off. Lock up your rollaway desks as we discuss His Girl Friday on Have a Good Movie!
