For those of you in the audience not familiar with this comedy classic, it stars Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan as two people who fall in love over the course of several years and several encounters. The gang discusses dating (then and now), gender dynamics, and the age-old question; can men and women just be friends?

Brick: How Rian Johnson Rebuilt the Noir Genre

The final Episode of 2025! The gang discusses Rian Johnson's debut film, Brick (2005) a neo-noir that takes the hard-boiled, pulpy detective style of 1950s classics and transposes it into a modern-day high school setting. This sharply written story features all the usual noir tropes but in a contemporary setting with a convoluted plot that manages to keep audiences locked in from start to finish.

Night of the Hunter: Faith, Fraud and Southern Gothic Horror

This week, the gang discusses Charles Naughton's one and only film, the classic Night of the Hunter (1955). Robert Mitchum's legendary performance as evil priest, Harry Powell, is one of the most haunting and memorable depictions of a serial killer in the history of film, and with a slew of stunning shots that harken back to German Expressionism and paved the way for countless other films, Night of the Hunter is essential viewing. Also discussed is pseudo and performative christianity as well as much more.
