1999: The Talented Mr. Ripley

TRP S7e3 Secrets & Lies

Three decades ago, Mike Leigh released a film about a woman with a secret who has told and will continue to tell a bunch of lies about it. While the title is rather on the nose, the movie itself takes quite a few twists and turns, and the way it was made is almost as interesting (some would say more, hello Matt) as the film itself. Nominated for 5 Oscars (Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, and -- ironically -- Best Screenplay), SECRETS & LIES is on the Rewind Project docket this week.

TRP S7e2 The Man Who Wasn't There

In 2001, the Coen Brothers told the story of a mild-mannered barber in an unhappy marriage decides to blackmail his wife's boss (and lover). THE MAN WHO WASN'T THERE was shot in black-and-white in the style of classic film noir, so you can be pretty sure he'll regret his choices soon enough. But because it's Joel & Ethan Coen, there's no way in the world you can predict exactly where this movie will go. This isn't the most celebrated film in the Coen oeurve, but the Rewinders decided to take a gander anyway.

TRP S7e1 The Devil Wears Prada

Gird your loins, everyone. The Rewind Project is back with a seventh season, and we're kicking off by discussing THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA on it's 20th anniversary. Not the fabulous sequel in theatres now, but the one that started it all. Is Miranda Preistley really the devil? Or does everyone who steps into the world of fashion get a little devilish? Is Nate really the villain of the movie, or just a meh boyfriend who makes a killer grilled cheese sandwich? Who would you cast as the young Miranda Priestley in a prequel about an aspiring fashion maven? Join us as we rummage through the Runway closet without the benefit of Stanley Tucci as the ever-present gay sidekick.

Season 7 ... We're baaaaaaaack.

We just couldn't stay away. Ally, Matt, and Eric are back for another season, and we wanted to take a quick moment to introduce you to the films we'll be discussing in Season SEVEN of The Rewind Project. Join us in two weeks for our first regular full-length episode of the season. And be kind ... Rewind.

1999: The Talented Mr. Ripley

Twenty-five years ago, a young opportunist went to Italy to convince a rich playboy to come home again, and well ... shenanigans ensued. If you don't know anything about THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEY, you've had a quarter century to get up to speed. But we won't spoil it here - just go watch the movie then come back to us and listen to the Rewinders (with special guest Joe Prince) discuss the talent and the ripples (hi there, Jude Law). #BeKindRewind
