Hey, We are taking the week off. This is the first time since launching this email in August of 2022 that we have not posted.
Today we’ll be covering two films. The first of which so brilliantly adapts the most famous scene in all of Shakespeare that not even Steven Spielberg dared touch it in his remake.
Today we’re discussing one of the last great Hollywood thrillers, a box office anomaly starring some of our biggest and most compelling performers today.
As we close out this week let’s talk about a music biopic about a musician that never existed.
As we close out this week let’s discuss Mann’s calling card film, the movie people will always start with when discussing him. A film that is both incredible and quietly super influential. Today we’re talking about Heat.
Let's talk about why men suck. To be clear, when I say "men suck," I am not referring to Garland's 2022 venture; I mean, you know, the gender.
As we continue our journey through Martin Scorsese's career, let's make a quick pit stop at one of his wildest and, sadly, forgotten films.
Okay sure. It’s not a perfect movie. It may not even be a particularly good movie.
As we continue through school movies I want to talk about my favorite insane subgenre, the modern literary adaptation for teens.
I’m not spending any time on the intro; it’s Ponyo. Get that ham, and let’s get into it, baby!
To close out this week, we are going to talk about one of the most recent opuses from one of my favorite working filmmakers.
We will be transitioning from one visually stunning auteurist work, where an all-knowing robot makes an outsider feel loved, to another. But this one features Oscar Isaac performing a choreographed dance to Oliver Cheatham's "Get Down Saturday Night."
