    286 - Dracula's Angel

    Jen and Tim warn the listener about a stupefying piece of outsider cinema, Dracula’s Angel. Watch Dracula’s Angel on YouTube, if you want to look straight into the abyss. Also stop by the creators’ website! The IMDb reviews, which the filmmakers solicit via title card at the end of the movie, are extremely amusing. If you enjoyed this for some reason, check out our other episodes on the least polished media we have covered so far in our Outsider Cinema collection! Hosted on Acast.

    285 - Prayer of the Rollerboys

    Tim and Jen welcome Tom of the Anime Sickos podcast to roll with a movie stocked with a single Corey, Prayer of the Rollerboys. Listen to The Disappearances of Lydia Fountayne, “a fresh and original story set in a deceptively familiar world of constant surveillance, information overload, and electronic communication.” Can’t get enough rolling? Watch this Vice documentary about “aggressive skating,” its rise and decline, and the utter loathing of skateboarders for inline skaters. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    284 - Bigger Than Life

    Jen and Tim look back at a dark entry from the often astonishing oeuvre of Nicholas Ray, the thrilling melodrama Bigger Than Life. Also Tim has medical trauma. Errata: Jen says “They Drive By Night” when she meant They Live By Night, confusing Raoul Walsh’s 1940 hit with Nicholas Ray’s 1948 debut feature. Her pay will be docked accordingly. The Classic Film Noir website has a wonderful visual essay about the film, including details about the negative critical response when it was released. Adrian Danks writes about Bigger Than Life and the psyche of its central character in a 2009 essay for Senses of Cinema. Sam Wasson’s article at the same site gives cultural context to the film,including the chilling affect of the Cold War and anticommunism. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    283 - The Yakuza

    Tim and Jen weeb out over an overlooked-in-its-time tale of an outsider navigating a closed and unforgiving society, The Yakuza. Tip us at our Ko-Fi! Jen oversimplifies the origins of the yakuza here, plus she just plain doesn’t know a hell of a lot about Japanese culture! A YouTuber going by ANIKI has an entire playlist of deep dives on yakuza and their history that will leave you better informed. Read an archived version of Paul Schrader’s primer on yakuza-eiga (gangster films) from 1974. From the Alienated in Vancouver blog: Allan MacInnis interviews author AJ Devlin about, among other things, Leonard Schrader and The Yakuza. Hosted on Acast.

    282 - Capone

    Jen solos for a conversation with gangster expert God’s Own Monster (@scabbyscribe.bsky.social) about a weirdly clammy biopic, Josh Trank’s Capone. Tip us at Ko-Fi! The Hollywood Reporter had some dirt on the Fox/Trank spat, including intel claiming that the filmmaker’s dogs damaged a rental property in Baton Rouge to the tune of $100,000 (Jesus Christ). Trank attempted to smooth things over in an LA Times interview, and claimed that he definitely did not melt down on 4Chan: As for rumors that he was behind an angry, defensive rant that surfaced last week on the anonymous Internet bulletin board 4Chan, Trank said that was simply a bizarre hoax someone perpetrated at his expense. “Everybody wanted to go out there and say, ‘Josh has lost his mind,’” he said. “It’s just been an avalanche of things.” This YouTube essayist covers the alleged Josh Trank 4Chan post in his exhaustive coverage of the director’s career trajectory (clicking through will take you directly to the relevant section).

    281 - Vox Lux

    Jen and Tim invite comedian Kath Barbadoro back to the show to puzzle over Brady Corbet’s weird stab at pop mythmaking, Vox Lux. Tip us at Ko-Fi! Brady Corbet and Natalie Portman chat about the film on some kind of Yahoo offshoot called Build. Maybe they explain themselves. I dunno, I’m not gonna watch it. The Variety critic actually liked the movie. He’s entitled to his opinion! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    280 - The Offence

    Tim and Jen marvel at an overlooked Sean Connery performance in Sidney Lumet’s similarly overlooked police procedural, The Offence. Tip us at Ko-Fi! See some of the existing locations from The Offence, via the BFI. This representative example of a John Hopkins-penned episode of Z Cars features a young and almost unrecognizable Brian Blessed as a uniformed cop. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    279 - Young Törless

    Jen and Tim go back to the roots of the New German Cinema and find much that’s still relevant in Volker Schlöndorff’s bleak character study, Young Törless. See video of Schlöndorff introducing a screening of Young Törless at a 2018 conference at Notre Dame. Jen hasn’t finished Klaus Theweleit’s Male Fantasies yet (it’s two volumes, plus she can’t read) but she’s gonna go ahead and recommend it to you if you’re at all interested in the psychology of fascism. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
