We return to our regular episodes by delving into the world of a serial killer – OR how an obsessive filmmaker makes a film about obsessive people – by breaking down David Fincher’s “Zodiac”. Join the 1001 by 1 crew as they break down our three lead performances (and outstanding ensemble), if the three merging narratives work, and how amazing detailed the film is. Also, this week Adam recommends “The Game” (available to rent on most major platforms), Britt recommends “The Devil’s Bath” (free on Shudder), and Joey recommends “Sorry, Baby” (free on HBO Max).

WE ARE (FINALLY) BACK!!!! And we are coming in hot with a new list: the 1001 by 1 crew is breaking down the best debuts from directors in the last 25 years. Any film that meets this criterion from our 25 Best Film of the Last 25 Years are ineligible – this will leave room for us to talk about some indie darlings, breakout horror films, and riveting performances.

We head on over to Loudon to see just what all this fuss is about regarding Father Grandier and Sister Agnes in Ken Russell’s controversial 1971 film “The Devils”.

We aimlessly float around Austin this week, going from coffee shop to dive bar and having famous singer’s extremely personal medical artifacts pushed on us as we visit Richard Linklater’s indie-darling “Slacker”.

We try a social experiment this week to see if we perform at a higher level of podcasting by constantly maintaining a .05% BAC – just like the gentlemen in Thomas Vinterberg’s “Another Round”. The 1001 by 1 crew is joined by Jen & Sarah of the Movies & Us podcast to break it all down: how we each got into Vinterberg, the camaraderie of our four teachers, and the standout performance of Mads Mikkelsen. Also, this week Britt recommends “The Legend of Hei” (free on Hoopla), Joey recommends “MadS” (available on Shudder), Adam recommends “The Celebration” (available on The Criterion Channel), Jen recommends “Black Bag” (available on Prim), and Sarah recommends “12 Angry Men” (free on Kanopy).
