Beskrivelse

Gretchen and Martin return with one of the most beautiful films made by Akira Kurosawa. Dreams is a magnificent film the reimagines a personal existence across childhood into adulthood and the throws of WWII and the other side of that through the cultural changes of a post-nuclear Japan. Lavish and haunting, this film is truly a masterpiece. Kurosawa is one of the greatest filmmakers of all time and this movie is the prime example of his wonderful and complex emotions on screen. https://www.instagram.com/checkthegatepodcast/ https://www.checkthegatepodcast.com/

episode Check the Gate - Strange Days cover

Check the Gate - Strange Days

Season two begins where season one left off. When last we talked about movies, Gretchen and I had watch Ralph Fiennes in The Menu. So to ring in 2026, we watched the Ralph Fiennes 1995 cyberpunk film, Strange Days. This Kathryn Bigelow film comes after the amazing Point Blank and the extremely amazing vampire film, Near Dark. Strange Days gives us an amazing look ahead at video as a tool of the future, social media, voice to text messaging and a power structure controlled by the wealthy. Video drugs, double crosses, extra judicial killings and Tom Sizemore's ugly wig. It's a crazy ride that is not always for the timid.  Martin and Gretchen talk movies and more at Check the Gate [https://www.checkthegatepodcast.com/].
