Blow-Up- I Say "No" and "Don't"

Blow-Up- I Say "No" and "Don't"

Alright, maybe we wouldn't recommend watching this movie and maybe we don't agree with critics who think it is Very Important. The main benefit is the cutting edge 1960's fashion. Other than that, it just raised a lot of questions for us. Such as: if your protagonist is lost and unconnected, does the movie need to be that way too? Anyway, it's certainly a movie that we did watch and you can hear our unfiltered thoughts here!  And go get some colored tights, I beg you.  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060176/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_blow%20up Music: Cassette Deck by Basketcase

Funny Face- Audrey Hepburn is NOT DOWDY

I don't care who you are, there't not one person that thinks Audrey Hepburn is plain and ordinary and in need of a makeover. Any yet, here we are! This movie really makes you suspend disbelief, and not just because it's a musical.  Join us as we enter the world of high fashion in a way that only the French can do. And stay despite the weird weird age difference between Fred Astaire and Audrey Hepburn. And please- think pink!!  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050419/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_funny%20face Music: Cassette Deck by Basketcase

The Women- Somehow All About Men

We're back!! We missed you! Welcome to season five- movies about clothes! We're starting with the oldest movie on our list. We knew a film from 1939 would exactly be progressive, but boy was it not! Buckle up for a ride where we try to figure out why a movie with no men in it can't be more about the female characters that are.  Oh and so, so, so many hats!! Hats galore, hat extravaganza.  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0032143/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_dm_2_tt_7_nm_1_in_0_q_the%20women Music: Cassette Deck by Basketcase

Lord of the Rings- We end at the beginning

It's our fantasy season finale extravaganza! So much movie, perhaps too much or not enough based on where you stand. We're talking about the trilogy as a whole. And as per usual we are criss-crossing back and forth through it like Sam and Frodo. These movies were a turning point for behind the scenes content that made all our nerdy hearts sing.  Are you ready to join the fellowship? Get your cloaks.  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120737/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_lord%2520of%2520the%2520rings Music: Cassette Deck by Basketcase
