Bald Move Prestige

The Grey (2011) Jul 28, 2021

Show notes

This is in the running for the worst podcast Bald Move has ever released. One of us was feeling what this movie was doing. The other, not so much. We also struggled to figure out exactly what this movie's thesis was. Regardless, we talk for about an hour about Liam Neeson's wolf-based Taken follow-up.

Marriage Story (2019) Jul 21, 2021

Show notes

Marriage Story is deceptively named, it has a deceptive poster, and its characters are deceiving (or at least deluding) themselves and their spouse. It's a passionate movie that also feels real in the way that it could happen to anyone anywhere, even though its happening to two exceptionally successful people.

Carlito's Way (1993) Jul 14, 2021

Show notes

It’s the lesser-known, though still excellent, Al Pacino gangster film where he plays a recently released Puerto Rican gangster in NY who wants out of the game, he just needs to scrape together the cash to buy his way into his buddy’s tropical rent-a-car biz. It also stars a young John Leguizamo as Benny from the Bronx who’s the next generation of gangsters looking to make a name for themselves. It’s a great movie and we had a great time covering it. You gotta see Sean Penn as a coked up criminal lawyer in this one.

Almost Famous (2000) Jul 12, 2021

Show notes

Almost famous is one of those movies that shouldn't feel as real as it does. It's an outrageous story about a teenaged musical critic who goes on tour with an up and coming rock band in the 1970s and accidentally finds himself writing the cover story for Rolling Stone. Totally relatable, right? Well, turns out it's a semi-autobiographical depiction of the writer / director Cameron Crowe's childhood, who spent his formative years touring with the likes of Skynyrd and Zeppelin as a music critic. You have to wonder how deep the similarities go when you see some of the stuff that happens in the movie, but it's immensely enjoyable and the soundtrack is fantastic. Join us for the podcast to hear our thoughts on Almost Famous.

The Elephant Man (1980) Jul 12, 2021

Show notes

Maybe it's young Anthony Hopkins? Maybe it's the exceptional sound design? Maybe it's just that his style hadn't fully blossomed? Whatever the case, it's possible that we’ve found a David Lynch movie that’s un-Lynchian enough for even Jim to love!

The Devil Wears Prada (2006) Jun 30, 2021

Show notes

Welcome to the 15th anniversary podcast for The Devil Wears Prada. It's not exactly my kind of movie but we missed the 10th anniversary and we know that a lot of our audience loves this movie so we checked it out. 15 years on, it seems like a bit of a mixed bag. The personal story of escaping a life that you never wanted in the first place is inspiring, but the way the movie treats the fashion industry at large left us fairly consternated.

Get Shorty (1995) Jun 16, 2021

Show notes

Get Shorty's portrayal of Hollywood might feel a little dated over 25 years later but it remains undeniably cool, which is what you'd expect from an adaptation of an Elmore Leonard novel. Join us for a conversation of this slick mashup of Hollywood and mafia.

Phantom Thread (2017) Jun 09, 2021

Show notes

I was honestly nervous about this one. It's supposedly going to be Daniel Day-Lewis' final film and I'd heard mixed reviews before checking it out. It's also a movie about the stuffiest of dressmakers which is paced very... precisely. However, thanks mostly to a few incredible performances, it held my interest long enough to get to the moments that set this movie apart. There are some serious spoilers for those moments though so watch the movie, then come back and give our podcast a listen if you're so inclined.

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988) Jun 08, 2021

Show notes

Thanks to epicmouthful for commissioning the podcast for Terry Gilliam's "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen". It's absurd and hilarious, it's got something to say, but above all else, it's imaginative. I think that's the highest compliment you could pay to the co-writer and director of this film as Gilliam brings his "Trilogy of Imagination" to a close.
