jakson Post-Heist Films: Bottle Rocket (1996) & The Mastermind (2025) kansikuva

Post-Heist Films: Bottle Rocket (1996) & The Mastermind (2025)

In this episode our Twin Feature is Bottle Rocket (1996) & The Mastermind (2025), as we try to define the ‘Post-Heist’ Film. In a literal sense: films that mainly take place after a heist. From a genre perspective: films that deconstruct the typical conventions of a heist movie, with characters less charismatically suave as they are idle, adrift in the socio-economic and political landscape they exist in. They are characters who don’t steal for necessity, they steal for meaning. Sources: Lee, D. (2014), The Heist Film: Stealing with Style. New York, NY: Columbia University Press Hayward, S.

jakson Heroes & Villains in Happy Gilmore (1996) & The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007) kansikuva

Heroes & Villains in Happy Gilmore (1996) & The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007)

In this episode our focus is on Heroes & Villains and our Twin Feature is Happy Gilmore (1996) & The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007). When thinking of classic character types, there is a good chance the hero and the villain are the first that come to mind. Luke Skywalker & Darth Vader, Batman & The Joker, Chief Martin Brody & The Shark who terrorised Amity Island. Instantly recognisable archetypes that have become ingrained in the media we watch. And when looking at cinema through this structuralist context, it's easy to see how those underlying narrative concepts are present, and incredibly similar, even in the most unassuming of places, namely a brash 90s sports comedy, and a niche arcade gaming documentary.

jakson Voyeurism in Wings of Desire (1987) & Under the Skin (2013) kansikuva

Voyeurism in Wings of Desire (1987) & Under the Skin (2013)

In this episode our focus is on Voyeurism and our Twin Feature is Wings of Desire (1987) & Under the Skin (2013). These films take place predominantly from the perspective of otherworldly beings, inconspicuously observing everyday lives in order to understand the human condition. Both take quite a left-field approach to the traditional notion of voyeurism and more specifically the 'gaze', subverting it in similar ways while also being wholly original and unique texts in relation to their contexts of production.

jakson Stardom in The Third Man (1949) & Pale Rider (1985) kansikuva

Stardom in The Third Man (1949) & Pale Rider (1985)

In this episode our focus is on Stardom, and our Twin Feature is The Third Man (1949) & Pale Rider (1985). With Orson Welles in The Third Man and Clint Eastwood in Pale Rider, both films use their stars presence (or a notable lack of it) in similar ways. Two titans of cinema, Welles and Eastwood loom over these films, both as their characters within the story, and in the wider context of the film's productions. We take a look at just how impactful these stars are in regards to each films production, filmmaking, and audience perception of their characters. Sources: Rossenbaum, J. (2007).
