This month for our Canadian Cinema Series, Ryan and Mike take a look at a pivotal landmark in the career of Canada's own father of body horror, David Cronenberg. "Dead Ringers" (1988) is a film that is sure to catch you off guard, whether you're a die-hard Cronenberg fan, or checking out his work for the first time.

This week, Ryan and Mike jump back 80 years to talk about a movie made in a world and for audiences that surprisingly similar to our own. Preston Sturges' "Sullivan's Travels" (1941) isn't talked about much these days, despite it's titanic influence on filmmakers like the Coen brothers, and you might find its message is one you need to hear right now.

Ryan and Mike talk some story structure and Christopher Nolan's second feature film, "Memento" (2000). This film is groundbreaking in its unique approach to story structure, as well as the techniques used to plant the audience in our protagonist's subjective head space.
