This week we wrap up our Billy Wilder double-feature by jumping 10 years ahead to 1960 and his Best Picture winning film – “The Apartment”. During the episode, Adam and Ian discuss the AFI’s Top 20 Laughs of All Time (and whether or not those film are actually funny), what it means for actors to not deviate from the script at all, and just how good Jack Lemmon & Shirley MacLaine really are. In addition to all this, Ian expresses his thought on Wilder’s other feature “Stalag 17” and Adam finally watches Kubrick’s “The Killing”. Also, this week Adam recommends “The Exorcist III” (available on Prime) and Ian recommends “Women in Love”.

As we cross into 1950, the guys at 1001 by 1 are going to finally to chat about one of the most prolific directors of this era by discussing two of his film in consecutive episodes. That director is Billy Wilder and the first film we’ll be discussing is “Sunset Blvd.”. During the episode, Adam ranks all five films nominated for Best Picture in 1950, Ian doesn’t fall into his normal trap (we’ll explain), and both guys have quite the hot take on the “Die Hard” franchise. And be on the lookout for the first film to be made by 1001 by 1 – the unauthorized biopic on New York Times film critic Bosley Crowther (sure to be a doozy). Also, this week Ian recommends “Stan and Ollie”(currently on Starz) and Adam recommends the entire Linklater “Before” trilogy – Before Sunrise, Before Sunset, (both available on HBO) & Before Midnight (currently available on Starz).

Moving along here from 1930 to 1940 brings a huge change in storytelling: from a gritty World War I film to a children’s story about being your best. That’s right – it’s 1940 and we’re discussing the Disney, animated classic “Pinocchio”. Join Adam and Ian (who have no strings to hold them down) as they discuss whether or not “Sleeping Beauty” is a good movie, serenade you with a song from “South Park: Bigger, Longer, & Uncut”, and ponder about the purpose of art. Also, this week Adam recommends “4 Months, 3 Weeks, 2 Days” (currently on The Criterion Channel) and Ian recommends “A Scanner Darkly (currently free on VUDU).

Here we are in the second week of our decade-by-decade celebration of film talking about the seminal World War I film, “All Quiet on the Western Front”. Adam and Ian find themselves in opposing trenches this week as Adam lists the 5 things he didn’t like about this film and Ian returns fire as to why this film should be in the book. During this in-depth discussion, Ian runs us through the AFI’s best “epic” films of all time and Adam runs us through the early years of the Academy Awards (AQOTWF won best picture). Also, this week Ian recommends the new Tom Hanks film “Greyhound” (available on Apple+) and Adam recommends the Andy Samberg comedy “Palm Springs” (available on Hulu).

In anticipation for our 100th episode, we’re doing something special here at 1001 by 1. Each week, we will discuss a film celebrating an anniversary and then jump a decade later to discuss a different film celebrating an anniversary (1920, 1930, 1940, etc.). To start all the way back in 1920 to discuss a film celebrating its 100th anniversary, we were only given one option…but we are sure glad it was the only film to pick from: Oscar Micheaux’s “Within Our Gates”. During the episode, Adam & Ian discuss not knowing much (if anything) about Micheaux before watching the film, the unfortunately still relevant topics being examined in the film, and the “white savior” characters in films discussing race. Also, this week Adam recommends “Hamilton” (Available on Disney+) and Ian recommends “Da 5 Bloods” (Available on Netflix).

As you could tell by the length of this episode, we REALLY dive deep into the work of Christopher Nolan this week to bring you our definitive ranking of all 10 of his feature films that have been released (sorry “Tenet”). During the episode, Adam & Ian discuss the frequent collaborators of Nolan, play a few games at the halfway point, and both rank films in the lower half of their lists that infuriates the other one. Ultimately, both lists are combined into a single, definitive 1001 by 1 ranking of all of Christopher Nolan’s work. We hope you enjoy (and for your sake, please take a break during this episode).

WE ARE BACK! To kick off the 2nd season, the guys at 1001 by 1 decided to come out swinging with an intense double feature that includes Francis Ford Coppola’s Vietnam War magnum opus “Apocalypse Now” and Eleanor Coppola’s documentary surrounding the intense and ill-fated production of the film “Hearts of Darkness”. In this first half, Adam and Ian discuss who had the bigger fall from grace (Francis Ford Coppola or George Lucas), the different cuts of the film, and the mental state and decision making of Francis Ford Coppola (among MANY other topics). 1001 by 1 is glad to be back!

As we continue to break ground here at 1001 by 1, the guys break into the French New Wave by discussing Francois Truffaut’s feature debut “The 400 Blows”. This week, Ian puts forth his distaste of the title, Adam can’t believe what won Best Original Screenplay over “The 400 Blows”, and both guys missed a woman’s touch on this film. Also, this week Adam recommends the 1999 animated feature “The Iron Giant” and Ian recommends the HBO miniseries “Chernobyl”.
