For whatever reason, ever my time Mike tries to do a W.C. Fields impression it turns into a Cagney impression.

Frankenhiemer returns to podcast with a… weird art film? Sort of. All of the paranoia, threatened masculinity, mid-century gloss, and decaying middle-class domesticity of The Manchurian Candidate remain, but the potboiler-thriller plot is replaced with… vibes.

We return to Monte Hellman’s examination of American masculinity with a James Taylor and Dennis Wilson-starring road movie. Two nearly silent racers ramble across the American southwest, acquiring a disreputable father-figure, a notably underage girl, and a supporting cast of American weirdos.

Tavernier topples the poisonous heart of European colonialism. Whether our hapless police chief chooses inaction, or succumbing to his own selfish impulses, everything and everyone around him rots due to the fundamental moral corruption of racism. But it’s a comedy.

Hungarian director Marta Meszaros adds unprecedented depth, humanity, and a whole other meaning to the question asked in countless groan-worthy bumper stickers: “Who adopted who?” Also, there some pretty great woodworking scenes!

Poverty. Betrayal. Heroin. Death. But, like in a really funny and clever sort of way that’s just a real pleasure to watch. Spend some time with some of your best Scottish friends! Director Danny Boyle fully inhabits, then redefines 90s cinema, in this groundbreaking international phenomenon.

Fresh off of his iconic Dracula, director Tod Browning returns to his roots with a domestic drama/crime film cast almost entirely with side-show performers with little-to-no screen acting experience. The viewers are asked - and very much confronted with the question of - who are the REAL freaks?

Director/Writer/Star Albert Brooks reawakens an early shared film trauma of your two loyal hosts. Can this Uber-Boomer satire of drop-out idealists living in Reagan's America be salvaged? Might it even be... good?

Bergman takes us on a journey into the past, to revisit youthful summer love. But don’t worry: this is all seen through the memory of an emotionally detached beauty left unable to find meaningful emotional attachments following a pointless tragedy. But, maybe it does all of this in an uplifting way?
