    Adam's Rib (1949) w/ Bella Zaydenberg

    "WHO WEARS THE PANTS?"

     

    Tired of episodes where Mike and Tom bicker like a couple? Great news, for Adam's Rib, Mike's real-life significant other, editor Bella Zaydenberg, returns to the show to discuss Adam's Rib. Which of course means, she'll try and inject some well-researched facts into the mix, while Mike and Tom continue to bicker like a couple. This time, they'll talk Tracy, Hepburn, who was right in the courtroom, and whether Kip is queer-coded or really trying to get into Katherine's signature slacks...

    Castro Street (1966)

    "Bruce Baillie makes avant-garde films with the gifts of a painter and the objectives of a sign painter."

     

    This week, we sat down as just Tom and Mike to talk about Bruce Baillie's Castro Street. But more than that, we sat down to, in a sense, "How To Watch Experimental Films (If You Don't Like Experimental Films)". After Tom notably had no patience for Dog Star Man earlier this season, Mike was surprised to find Tom really resonated with this 10-minute avant-garde portrait of industrial California.

     

    So, if you've ever found yourself thinking experimental film is daunting, incomprehensible, or yes, even pretentious, Tom (who has thought all three at times) takes the lead on this episode to help make sense of Castro Street, and offer a pathway into the rich and diverse world of experimental cinema.

     

    Plus, we take a look at Baillie's other major work, All My Life (1966), to compare and contrast the two shorts.

    Salt of the Earth (1954) w/ Kyle Lampar

    "The only film to ever be blacklisted!"

     

    Kyle Lampar steps out of the producer role to join us for a conversation about HUAC, the Hollywood Ten, and the only film to ever be blacklisted, Salt of the Earth (1954). Since this unique film was made by creatives caught up in the Red Scare, we begin our episode with a quick history of the Hollywood Blacklist, before getting into the merits, and the flaws, of this landmark work of cinema.

    Paths of Glory (1957) w/ Michael H. Weber

    "Never has the screen thrust so deeply into the guts of war!"

     

    Screenwriter Michael H. Weber (500 Days of Summer, The Disaster Artist) returns to the show to talk about one of Stanley Kubrick's under-discussed masterworks, the stirring Kirk Douglas-led war film Paths of Glory (1957)! We'll talk pacifism, systemic failure, and how this anti-war film compares to Kubrick's own later film, Full Metal Jacket.

    Bonnie and Clyde (1967)

    "The strangest damned gang you ever heard of. They're young. They're in love. They rob banks."

     

    This week, Mike Natale and Tom Lorenzo work as a duo to unpack one of the most controversial and game-changing American films of the 1960s, Bonnie and Clyde (1967). They'll take a look at a tumultuous pre-production process, a titanic Oscar year, and tons of bullets taking down two of the most beautiful young stars of mid-century Hollywood.

    "Showdown in the High Sierra!"

     

    Our two weary cowboy hosts form a posse with film critic Tom Augustine to journey into the world of Sam Peckinpah with what is perhaps a surprising pick for Bloody Sam's first entry into the National Film Registry, the Randolph Scott/Joel McCrea two-hander Ride the High Country (1962)

    Mike and Tom are all set to be joined by a surprise guest for their episode about the hijink filled buddy comedy Big Business (1929) from the iconic comedy duo of Laurel & Hardy. But just who booked the surprise guest, and when will they get there?

    Morocco (1930) w/ Alonso Duralde

    "Who is this woman who scorns a hundred men...to give her love to a Devil-May-Care Soldier?"

     

    Alonso Duralde, author of the new book Hollywood Pride, joins us to talk the lady in the tux who takes center stage on the cover of his book, as we dive into 1930's war-torn romance, Morocco. We examine the film's queer undertones (or, really, overtones), the iconography of Marlene Dietrich, and what the film shares in common with a Kevin Smith movie from the 90s.

    The musical team of Hass & Swanton (Kyle Reid Hass & Jeremy Swanton) return to the show once again, this time for what is inarguably the greatest movie musical about putting on live prologues before movie screenings ever to hit the silver screen, Footlight Parade (1933)! We'll talk Cagney, Berkeley, and folks getting frisky at the "Honeymoon Hotel". Plus, we talk about Hass & Swanton's new musical TV series, Act of Faith!

    The Gold Rush (1925/1942) w/ Glenn Garthwaite

    "He will make you laugh, roar, scream- he'll make you choke back your tears. Ten reels of Chaplin as you like him. It's the Picture You've waited for!"

     

    Editor Glenn Garthwaite returns to the show to discuss the Chaplin comedy so nice, he released it twice. Regarded as one of the Little Tramp's finest outings, the Klondike comedy The Gold Rush was a smash success when released as a silent in 1925. Then, in 1942, Chaplin rereleased it with a new score and narration by none other than Charlie (or, fine, Charles) himself, which received two Academy Award nominations.
