37 - Overnight (2003)

Friend of the show Jeremy returns as we try to discuss Troy Duffy's 2000 Boston crime thriller "The Boondock Saints", a movie that we all hate so much that this really becomes more a discussion of the 2003 making of documentary "Overnight". We get into Troy Duffy, his cool overalls, how hard directing movies is, delusional thinking, the incredible levels of bridge burning on display, enslaving your best friends, WWE theme songs and marvel at a man so unlikable we all wind up taking Harvey Weinstein's side on something. Also discussed: The End of Oak Street, La Flor pt. 4, the Venom films, The Samurai and the Prisoner, Schindler's List and The Worst Person in the World. All that plus Tim saw and didn't like "Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma" and the boys pitch a new subgenre of death metal. Please note we recorded this during a bad rain storm and Ben and Jeremy's internet has some struggles but this episode is still plenty listenable and remember that this show is free. We will be back next week with a slight schedule change, come back for Andrew Dominik's brutally bleak Boston by way of Louisiana mob noir "Killing Them Softly". Light spoilers for Camp Miasma, skip from 24:40 - 26:45 to avoid. Thanks to Disco and Eric as always and make sure to follow Jeremy on Letterboxed at Jmball321.

36 - Sex, Lies and Videotape (1989)

The boys are back in the South this week to get into Steven Soderbergh 1989 debut "Sex, Lies and Videotape". We talk about the American Jeremy Irons, drunk driving in Baton Rouge, asexuality, art hoes, the Fraiserurbane vibes, how old everyone used to look back in the day and how bonkers it is that a 26 year old Soderbergh directed this. Also discussed: Ghost in The Shell 2, The Mist, Allied and Chainsmoker Cat yet again. We will be back next week talking about Troy Duffy's very bad 2000 Boston crime film "The Boondock Saints" along with the much better making of documentary from 2003 "Overnight". Thanks to Disco and Eric as always. Letterboxed: DeadFormatPod Bluesky: DeadFormatPod

35 - Manchester by the Sea (2016)

Tim and Ben are joined by friend of the show Nick to discuss Kenneth Lonergan's brutal yet hopeful "Manchester by the Sea". We talk about the incredible comeback story this movie represents for Lonergan, the John Krasinski connection, Michelle Williams as a genius of crying, emasculating Matthew Broadrick, yet another reminder how how good 2016's movies were and how this movie captures Ben's lived experience possibly more than any other movie to date. Also discussed: Ghost in the Shell, Nirvana: The Band The Show The Movie, Robocop, La Flor pt 3 plus Ben and Tim both saw the Odyssey and only one of us liked it, tune in to find out who you want to yell at. We will be back next week going back to one of the muses of this show Steven Soderbergh and his Palme d'Or winning 1989 debut "Sex, Lies and Videotape". Thanks to Disco and Eric as always.

34 - Mississippi Masala (1991)

Ben and Tim head down to the Gulf Coast for the first of Tim pick in our summer block, Mira Nair's 1991 "Mississippi Masala". We get into the real life odyssey Nair went through in her career to arrive at this excellent movie, location shooting in Africa, hiring Ken Park's director to be your DP, Denzel's crazy charisma and crazier mouth injury, teen Zoran talking his mom out of doing Harry Potter and the wild swings this movie takes in order to say something about the idea of home that few other movies even try to attempt. This movie surprised the hell out of Ben and you should really check it out. Also discussed: Chainsmoker Cat (again, sorry), La Flor pts 1 &2, Dark Side of the Ring, Manhunter and The End of Evangelion. We will be back next week with friend of the show Nick to talk about Kenneth Lonergan's brutal yet beautiful 2016 masterpiece "Manchester by the Sea". Thanks to Disco and Eric as always.

Bonus - Margaret (2011)

With a Manchester By the Sea episode officially on the books go back to the halcyon days of 2023 with Ben and friend of the show Erik as we do insanely deep on Kenneth Lonergan's 2011 masterpiece "Margaret". We get into the 6 years this spent in post-production hell, PTSD, narcissism, Matthew Broderick slander, high school, 9/11, Jean Reno, experimental soundmixing, Bashar Al-Assad and so much more. This is one of Ben's all time favorite movies and hopefully this gets you to check it out if you haven't seen it before. We will still be back next week talking Mira Nair's "Mississippi Malasa" and then Manchester the week after that, enjoy! Thanks to Disco for the show art and to Eric for the music.

33 - Jaws (1975)

Ben and Tim are joined by Caucasian Kaiju expert and Pod About List co-host Cameron Fetter to discuss Steven Spielberg's 1975 blockbuster classic Jaws. We get into the rise and further rise of Spielberg, Jaws pinball, submechanophobia, the incredible adaption of a pretty crummy novel, the wild production, ugly 70s actors and Ben makes the case for this movie as a microcosm for the spirit of the people of Massachusetts. Also discussed: The Furious, Backrooms redux, Avatar: Fire and Ash, a bunch of Kiyoshi Kurosawa, Nightbreed, Chainsmoker Cat plus Tim reviews Her Private Hell and the boys remember Sam Neill (RIP). We will be back next week talking about Mira Nair's fascinating 1991 film Mississippi Masala, the only movie filmed in Tim's childhood hometown! Check out Cameron on Pod About List and watch CHUNKS now on VOD. Thanks as always to Disco for the show art and to Eric for the theme song. Letterboxed: DeadFormatPod Bluesky: DeadFormatPod

32 - Sicario: Day of the Soldado (2018)

The boys are back this week discussing the first direct sequal to a previous episode's movie, Stefano Sollima's "Sicario: Day of the Soldado". We talk about how cheap and bad this looks by comparison, how little it has to say, how much the original 130 page (!!!) script did along with privite militaries, Isabela Merced going "Come and See" mode, natty Josh Brolin and some Sicario 3 rumors that are almost too crazy to believe. Also discussed: Wimbledon, Goodwood Festival of Speed, Summer Games Done Quick, Alpha and an emergency mini-episode on Videophobia^. We will be back next week with a very special guest to kick off our summer programming block with Steven Spielberg's 1975 shark horror classic "Jaws". Thanks as always to Eric and Disco. Letterboxed: DeadFormatPod Bluesky: DeadFormatPod ^ Full spoilers for Videophobia between 12:30 - 24:50, good movie you should watch it first.

31 - Sicario (2015)

We get into the curious case of Taylor Sheridan, the CIA, Ready or Not, Kiki Camarena, Zero Dark Thirty, bumming cigs, psychic scammers and the many Oscar snubs endured by Roger Deakins. Also discussed: Séance, High Art, Vampire, JFK and The Night Comes For Us. We will be back next week doing the first direct sequel to a movie we have covered, Stefano Sollima's 2018 "Sicario: Day of the Soldado".
