King Kong/The Attack of the 50 Foot Woman

Come talk summer monsters with us! We talk about surprises - how surprisingly violent and intense King Kong is and also how surprisingly boring the 50 Foot Woman is.

Henry Gamble's Birthday Party/Prick Up Your Ears

Join Joel and Bethany down yet another religious trauma rabbit hole as we talk about one of the best movies about evangelicalism we've ever seen - Stephen Cone's Henry Gamble's Birthday Party.

The Graduate/Day of the Dolphin

Bethany and Joel dive our way into some Mike Nichols work - his classic (rightfully) film The Graduate and also... another movie he directed called Day of the Dolphin whose most memorable and enjoyable element is it's tagline.
