The Outlaw Nation Reviews: Nightmare Alley Apr 09, 2022

Show notes

Guillermo del Toro's Nightmare Alley was probably the most surprising Best Picture Nomination for John and Steve. It's not that they expected to dislike the movie but neither of them thought they would be as taken with it as they were. With incredible performances, a compelling story and Del Toro's unique ability to create a fully realized world, Nightmare Alley is a fantastic Noir Thriller that is well worth your time.

The Outlaw Nation Reviews: West Side Story Apr 09, 2022

Show notes

Steven Spielberg's remake of one of the greatest musicals of all time didn't do well at the Box Office or at the Oscars, however, that doesn't stop both John and Steve from believing that this was, without question, the best film of the year. This is truly a master filmmaker at work and to say they have a lot to say about this movie, the performances, cinematography and directorial choices is an understatement.

The Outlaw Nation Reviews: The Power of the Dog Apr 09, 2022

Show notes

Jane Campion's The Power of the Dog was very much the front runner for best picture this year and while it didn't win, the powerful choices, technical mastery and haunting story of this incredible film are undeniable. Where Steve and John disagree on this one is whether or not they actually liked the movie. You'll have to listen (or watch) to find out who feels what.

The Outlaw Nation Reviews: Don't Look Up Apr 08, 2022

Show notes

This really has been an incredible year for films but there is one movie nominated for best picture that neither John or Steve likes and that is Don't Look Up. It's not that the people behind it aren't talented. Far from it. It's not that the actors don't deliver fantastic performances. They do. It's simply that the obvious political goals of the film seem to overshadow the story itself which begins to drift halfway through and never fully recovers.

Of course, if you want to watch John and Steve as well as listen you can see the video right here.

The Outlaw Nation Reviews: King Richard Apr 08, 2022

Show notes

John and Steve reviewed King Richard several days before The Oscars but what happened there doesn't change the fact that Will Smith delivered an absolutely stunning performance as Richard Williams. While it's not a perfect film, King Richard is certainly powerful, with incredible performances based on the stratospheric achievements of the Williams family.

George Stevens Jr. Complete Interview Apr 02, 2022

Show notes

A few months ago, during our exploration of the film Shane, we had the great pleasure of welcoming to our microphones the son of its director, George Stevens Jr. If you listened to the episode you heard what it was like to be on the set of that classic western. But George Stevens Jr. is far more than the son of a famous director. In addition to being an award winning director and producer in his own right, George Stevens Jr. is the founder of the American Film Institute, and creator and long time producer of the Kennedy center honors. We discuss all that and more in this previously unreleased interview.

The Outlaw Nation Reviews: Drive My Car Mar 31, 2022

Show notes

Japanese director, Ryusuke Hamaguchi powerful exploration of love, loss, creativity and guilt is without question, beautifully made, filmed, edited and acted but while John loved it the editor and Steve would have cut it down significantly. Still they both had a lot to say about this powerful and completely unique piece of cinema.

The Outlaw Nation Reviews: Coda Mar 31, 2022

Show notes

When John and Steve sat down to deliver their review of Coda, neither of them knew it would eventually win the Oscar for best picture but they both absolutely loved the film and thought it had a very good chance.

The Outlaw Nation Reviews: Belfast Mar 30, 2022

Show notes

In their second review of the nominations for best picture, John and Steve explore Keneth Branagh's,s semi autobiographical film, Belfast. With luscious black and white photography, brilliant performances and incredible sense of time and place, Belfast is certainly worthy of it's nomination.
