Fargo - S05E03 - The Paradox of Intermediate Transactions Nov 30, 2023

Show notes

Noah Hawley is leaning heavily into the supernatural aspect. This episode is packed with references to history and lore. You might be saying, “Whoa now! That’s a lot of background information I don’t care to look up!” That’s ok because Jim and A.Ron did all the research for you. You’ll soon understand the sentence: A sin-eater finds a home.

Ikiru (1952) Nov 29, 2023

Show notes

Akira Kurosawa’s somber film, Ikiru, ponders the meaning of life and death. A businessman with terminal cancer navigates his way through bureaucracy and family dynamics while trying to figure out the best way to use his remaining time. This is a film to return to every so often as it will take on different meaning for you in different points of your life.

Killers of the Flower Moon (2023) Oct 20, 2023

Show notes

Martin Scorsese is back at the ripe old age of 80 to spin another one of his gangster tales. Set in 1920s Oklahoma, Killers of the Flower Moon depicts the injustices suffered by the indigenous poeples of America through the lens of one family's maniacal and murderous attempts to steal their rights to oil found on their land.

It's incredibly well acted and is at times gorgeous to look at, even though its action might unsettle you at times. So... it's a Scorsese movie. You probably already know if you'll like this one, but if not, there are a lot worse ways to spend an evening.

Kill Bill: Volume 1 (2003) 20th Anniversary Oct 04, 2023

Show notes

Get ready for great dialogue, sudden bouts of grayscale, and lots and lots of blood. The Bride’s revenge-rampage is just as epic 20 years later. Jim and A.Ron discuss not only their experiences with the film, but also have behind the scenes stories for the movie nerd inside of you. Keep your shoes securely on and dive into the most Tarentino-y movie to ever exist.

The Creator (2023) Sep 29, 2023

Show notes

If you’re a fan of robots, AI, Asimov-ian scifi, this might be the movie for you. Following on the all-too-relevant theme of AI, The Creator tells the story of a future where a large part of the world has embraced augmented humans, and the other hates it. It’s visually arresting and sometimes tonally unbalanced, but it will leave you with plenty to think about. And it was a struggle to get into the theater, so thank Jim and A.Ron for braving the difficulties.

Next First Run Bald Movie is Killers of the Flower Moon!

Silver Linings Playbook (2012) Sep 27, 2023

Show notes

This atypical romcom is the story of two broken people helping each other. Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper play characters in the throes of their mental illnesses. David O. Russell adapted and directed this project, and JLaw won her first Oscar playing Tiffany. With such a high pedigree in cast and director, it’s no surprise that this film delivers on every front. And yes, it is a Christmas film.

Dazed and Confused (1993) 30th Anniversary Sep 20, 2023

Show notes

Not much plot, just vibes. Richard Linklater gives us a look at the teenage years with doses of refreshing honesty, but keep in mind, this movie is still plenty problematic. But maybe that’s the point? Matthew McConaughey, Parker Posey, and Ben Affleck star in this time capsule of the teenage years. Jim and A.Ron reflect on the cultural shifts between now and the setting of Dazed and Confused.

Enemy of the State (1998) Sep 05, 2023

Show notes

There are conspiracy theories to be made out of this movie. From director Tony Scott comes a thriller with more relevance to us now than ever. A big wig in the NSA needs to cover his tracks and Will Smith gets caught in the middle. The fight for privacy will feel familiar and depressing. To distract you from that, there’s a great cat actor. What did this movie get right and what did it get wrong about privacy?

Show notes

Was Clem just an idiot this whole time? Just like the rest of the season, this finale had its Elmore Leonard moments. The surprises at the end had Jim and A.Ron pointing at the screen like the Leo DiCaprio meme. Find out what moments were quick on the draw, and which fumbled.
