    Episode #09 - Moonlight x La La Land

    CW: Moonlight is a film that explores issues of queer identity and Black masculinity. As a result, the film uses homophobic slurs. We try our best to handle a discussion of the film with care. Welcome to season two of Sightgeist! In this episode, Jimmy and Joe discuss what were not just two of the biggest films of 2016, but two of the biggest films of the 21st century so far--Moonlight, the year's Best Picture winner, and La La Land, which technically got announced as the Best Picture winner, even though it didn't win Best Picture.

    Episode #00 - Introducing Sightgeist!

    Welcome to Sightgeist, a podcast that looks at the great movies of yesterday and how they hold up today! In this introductory episode, co-hosts Jimmy and Joe talk a bit about themselves and the show's format, as well as a bit about why they wanted to create Sightgeist in the first place. Why do we remember some movies and not others? What does it take for a film's legacy to last beyond a few years? Why do the Oscars get it wrong so often? Each month, Jimmy and Joe will pick a movie from ten years ago and consider its legacy in today's film landscape and whether or not it holds up. So please--join two dummies as they discuss the relevance of movies you may or may not have forgotten about. Feel free to subscribe to the Sightgeist Substack to join a community of fellow cinephiles in discussing how wrong Jimmy and Joe will inevitably be, as well as to ask questions, leave comments, and more. We look forward to hearing from you. You can also leave questions and feedback by emailing us at sightgeistpod@gmail.com.

    Episode #01 - Sicario x Ex Machina

    Welcome back to Sightgeist! In this episode, Jimmy and Joe rehash Sicario and Ex Machina, movies that were a couple of their favorites when they first came out. Do they stand the test of time, and better yet, do they hold up politically? Is Ex Machina more interested in gender politics than it is in anything about artificial intelligence? Ten years on, is Sicario still the mind-blowing movie it was in 2015? Feel free to subscribe to the Sightgeist Substack to join a community of fellow cinephiles in discussing how wrong Jimmy and Joe are, as well as to ask questions, leave comments, and more. We look forward to hearing from you. You can also leave questions and feedback by emailing us at sightgeistpod@gmail.com.
