Das Boot • The Next Reel May 01, 2014

Show notes

There are great years of cinema like 1999 when the films seem to redefine the direction of the medium. And then there are years that, while maybe not changing the nature of cinema, certainly have a lot of great movies.1981 is one of those years. Wolfgang Peterson's epic WWII submarine film came out in Germany in 1981 and changed the way many filmmakers constructed tension in war and action films. It changed the way people viewed Germans during the war because it portrayed the submariners as simply human. And it became the most popular foreign language film in the US for a very long time. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we begin our series on 1981 with Peterson's "Das Boot." We talk about the power of the anti-war story and why it works so well, even if German critics at the time thought it was a horrible move on the part of the filmmakers. We discuss the director and his cast, looking at what each of them bring to the table, particularly Jürgen Prochnow as the Captain of the U-boat. We go over the length and debate the worth of the additional hour in the director's cut — was it necessary to add it all back into the film? We talk about taking the tour of the Bavaria Film Studios to see the original full-scale model of the submarine (and take a ride on Falcor from The NeverEnding Story!) And we talk about the complexities of shooting a submarine film with models, handheld cameras with gyroscopic stabilization systems, moving sets on gimbles made to spec, and more. It's a powerful film that perhaps begins to wear its welcome, but we love it and have a great time talking about it this week. Tune in!

The Matrix • The Next Reel Apr 24, 2014

Show notes

People often talk about the great movie year of 1999, and one of the great films that came out that year is 'The Matrix,' the film that made bullet-time a filmmaking standard and stunt wire work almost an expectation in action films. But it's a great film because of its script, written by Lana née Larry and Andy Wachowski, who went on to co-direct it as well. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we delve into our next Listener's Choice movie selection with 'The Matrix.' We talk about the script and how it works in the world of science fiction, but also how the script goes beyond that by including elements from a wide variety of other sources — religions, movie genres, writings and theories, etc. We discuss how well it does with these heavier and headier ideas, and if those elements matter when watching the film to make it enjoyable. We chat about the cast and crew and everything they're bringing to the table to create this amazing world. We mention the film just had its 15th birthday and argue about whether it holds up as well as it first did or if it's showing its age now. And we really have to deliberate with this versus several other films we've discussed in previous episodes when trying to rank it on Flickchart. It's a great film that's well worth talking about. Tune in!

Trollhunter • The Next Reel Apr 17, 2014

Show notes

One of the interesting things to explore in the usage of found footage style films is how it can be applied to different genres. Okay, so it works better in some genres than others, but it's not a genre in and of itself, nor is it restricted to horror movies. But one thing that is consistent is the fact that we're watching real people in a real situation they likely didn't survive. There is an inherent connection to reality that isn't present in other styles of films because of this, and in a film like Norway's 'Trollhunter,' it ups the stakes because everything feels that much more real. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we wrap up our found footage series with André Øvredal's 2010 fantasy thriller 'Trollhunter.' We talk about why this film works and what works about it — from the trolls to Otto Jespersen's world weary titular character Hans, from the effects (mostly) to the reality presented in the film. We discuss the interesting religious thoughts brought up in the film, and also look at the insightful story of the government and its need to control what information the people get. We chat about the myths of the trolls in Norwegian folklore and how bringing them so literally to life in this film helps the reality of the story, though possibly hurts it as well. And we frame it in context of our other found footage films to really get a sense as to what works and what doesn't. It's a fun series to have under our belts, and one we certainly hope to revisit in the future. Tune in!

Chronicle • The Next Reel Apr 10, 2014

Show notes

When making found footage style films, it's important to stick with the conceit — someone is holding the camera and filming events as they happen, then we someone later stumble upon the footage and watch it to understand what happened. What's great about Josh Trank's 2012 debut film 'Chronicle' is that he takes that conceit and finds ways to use it to his advantage while also exploring ways to break out of the conceit with multiple cameras and camera movement. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we continue our found footage series with this great superhero film. We talk about how Trank did an amazing job of modifying the conceit in order to tell an excellent film, warts and all. We discuss the cast — from Dane DeHaan to Michael B Jordan — and look look at what they each bring to the film. And we look at this story in context of superhero origin stories and discuss the idea of developing a new super villain. It's a creative and fun movie and we have a great time talking about it. Check it out!

Cloverfield • The Next Reel Apr 03, 2014

Show notes

The J.J. Abrams team jumped into the found footage realm with a fun Godzilla-style monster movie that was kept under strict wraps while filming, to the point where excited audience members actually believed that it might have possibly been a live-action version of Voltron. "Cloverfield," which, in the film, is the name the government gives to this top secret creature after-the-fact, is a unique creature feature that at once allowed for an intimate story set in a massive location. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we discuss Matt Reeves' 2008 film "Cloverfield." We talk about how this film handles the camerawork vs. "Quarantine," and why this one may employ a bit more shaky-cam than our previous film. We discuss the goods and bads in the film, notably talking about how for both of us, the cast is one of our biggest problems with the movie. We chat about the filming and editing process and how they're used differently in a found footage style film. And we talk about the monster and how well she works for us. It's a fun film that may not be our favorite, but still is a lot of fun. It's well worth talking about. Tune in!

Quarantine • The Next Reel Mar 27, 2014

Show notes

For many audience members, found footage films are just an opportunity to to film a horror story on the cheap and don't bring anything to the table. There are films, however, that work to use the filmmaking style to their advantage in exploring different ways to tell their stories. Sure, it's a conceit, but if you buy into it, it can make for a fun style of storytelling. Join us -- Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we begin our Found Footage Series with John Erick Dowdle's 2008 film "Quarantine." We talk about the nature of found footage films, what they need, why they're often horror films, and why it works in this film. We discuss the script of this film and, while still enjoyable, what big problem crops up late in the film that leads to too many questions and, if thought about critically, can really spoil the story. We chat about the original Spanish film, "[REC]," on which this is based, what the differences are, which version works better, and why the original film's director hates this one so much. We chat about the cast and what they bring to the table in a film largely made up of long shots. And we complain about the marketing images for this film and ponder what could possibly have been their intention when using the film's final image as the poster design. It's a fun and frightening horror film that has its problems, but still is effective at creating a claustrophobic horror film. We have a great chat about it. Tune in!

A League of Their Own • The Next Reel Mar 20, 2014

Show notes

Tom Hanks and baseball — they go together like peanut butter and chocolate. Aside from always wanting to be an astronaut, Hanks has always been a great baseball fan and eagerly jumped at the chance to be in Penny Marshall's 1992 film about the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. The film is a crowd pleaser and drew in the crowds when it was released, which was great because it shined a light on an aspect of sports history that had sadly been largely forgotten. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we finish our Tom Hanks series with a dip back into our spring Baseball series of past years. We talk about how this film came to be, and how Penny Marshall couldn't even find any female screenwriters to come on board to write the script. We discuss the performances and how everyone, from top to bottom, really fits their parts and puts in the work, even if we don't always care for their performances. We chat about the script and how that might be what's leading to some of our struggles with performances as the script really does feel straight out of screenwriting basic training. We talk about the roles of women in sports and in media, how skewed toward men it all is, and how this film does help give better role models for young girls. And we close it out discussing Hanks himself and what these four films in the first decade (for the most part) of his career showed us about who he is and where he'd be going. It's a great film, albeit with a basic script, that highlights a key time in our history, and we have a great time talking about it. Tune in!

Apollo 13 • The Next Reel Mar 13, 2014

Show notes

Tom Hanks already won his back-to-back Oscars and with an ensemble film like "Apollo 13," he wasn't a clear choice to get nominated again to make a three-peat a possibility. All of that aside, as anyone on the cast or crew who worked on the film knows — as well as anyone who saw the film — he was clearly born to play an astronaut. He reunited with Ron Howard on the making of this amazing film dealing with one of the worst space disasters the world has ever seen, and even though everyone knew what happened, it was a compelling piece of cinema. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we continue our Tom Hanks series with "Apollo 13." We talk about the amazing effects work and how it seamlessly blends with real footage, miniatures, and amazing weightless photography filmed in the vomit comet. We discuss the performances throughout the film and what each of the performers brings to the story, including Hanks, Gary Sinise, Bill Paxton, Kevin Bacon, Ed Harris, and Kathleen Quinlan. We chat about the roles of women in this film and similar films, what works and what doesn't for us in their part of the story, and why we feel they're portrayed the way they are. We talk about the amazing score done by James Horner in this film and how well it fits in context of the film. And we chat about some of the awards the film won, was nominated for, and wasn't nominated for, and what we think about that. It's a great movie — one of our favorites — and we have a fantastic conversation about it. Tune in!

Forrest Gump • The Next Reel Mar 06, 2014

Show notes

"Forrest Gump" broke all sorts of box office records when it was released in the summer of 1994, which may be why people spent a lot of time digging into what they thought the film was really saying, even if it's not what the filmmakers were actually saying. At its heart, it's a character story about people struggling to find their paths in life, and looking back on it 20 years later, it's still an absolutely beautiful film. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we continue our Tom Hanks series with Robert Zemeckis' Oscar-winning film, "Forrest Gump." We talk about the rhetoric and opinions that came out shortly after the film's release and where we each stand with those lines of thinking. We discuss the amazing performances across the board, focusing on Tom Hanks, Robin Wright, Gary Sinise, Mykelti Williamson, Sally Field and Hailey Joel Osment. We chat about the stunning effects work all through this film and how they're often completely invisible, and we reveal our opinions on the Oscars that year and what we think should have won. It's a great conversation about an unforgettable film. Tune in!

Splash • The Next Reel Feb 27, 2014

Show notes

In the late 70s and early 80s, Disney Pictures had been getting grief for releasing films that were too adult. When “Splash” came along, they decided to create a new label for releasing more adult fare. And thus, Touchstone Pictures was born! On top of that, the film was such a success that it pushed its star, Tom Hanks, and director, Ron Howard, up toward the upper echelons of the Hollywood elite. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we begin our Tom Hanks series near the beginning of his career with “Splash,” a film that Andy holds near and dear to his heart while Pete struggles with many aspects of it. We talk about the beginnings of Hanks’ career and how he ended up getting cast in this film, as well as how well he works in it. We touch on the other actors — Daryl Hannah, John Candy and Eugene Levy in particular — and how they do in the film. We discuss what works for Andy and what doesn’t work for Pete and try to identify specific elements that could be causing Pete to disconnect from the movie. And we chat about the cinematography and how beautiful the film looks, standing out from the flat lighting most comedies suffer from. It’s a film Andy and Pete likely will never agree on, but it’s certainly fun to talk about. Tune in!
