In this episode, Audrey talks about The Nightmare Before Christmas...again. That’s because this week, we are talking about our favorite Christmas movies for our Intermission! Corey goes fringe, as usual.

This week, we talk about how musicals dominated the 37th Academy Awards and Stanley Kubrick didn’t. Neither did Peter O’Toole or Richard Burton. But our fair ladies Julie and Audrey sure did!

We know Audrey Hepburn for her slim figure, her doe eyes and her fashion sense...but who really was she? We explore the early life of Audrey, from her brief career as a ballerina to her humanitarian work in her later life. It just goes to show--if your name is Audrey, you’re a cool person.

Welcome to 1935, which is arguably a diet 2020! This week, we talk about Fred Astaire’s fancy feet in Top Hat, Clark Gable’s waxed chest in Mutiny on the Bounty, the first refused Academy Award and the mystery of why they are called the Oscars.

Why do we have the Oscar categories that we do? Since we’re jumping back into the 1930s next week, this week’s intermission is about discontinued Oscar categories, including Best Title Writing (which is sooo 1929.) We also chat about categories we would like to see at the Academy Awards.

The power of film compels you! Pea soup flies in this episode about the 46th Academy Awards, where THE STING scored big at the ceremony and THE EXORCIST scored big among fainting audiences all over the world. We also talk about where we were in ‘62 (neither of us were anywhere. We weren’t born) with AMERICAN GRAFFITI.

‘Tis the season for things going bump in the night! Audrey and Corey (the gravel-voiced assistant) discuss their favorite Halloween films that get them in the spirit of spooky season. What scary films haunt our nightmares? Seriously guys, we talk about everything from The Conjuring to Hocus Pocus.

Tom Hanks runs, Morgan Freeman narrates and Jodie Foster does whatever she does in Nell! The 67th Academy awards were stacked, with huge contenders pitted against one another. But did the right one win? Or is the result stranger than (pulp) fiction? In completely unrelated news, Jeffrey Dahmer was a people nommer.

We all have opinions about movies that should have won awards. Audrey thinks Titanic should have sunk. Corey didn’t think The King gave a very good Speech. This week, we look at Oscar snubs through the decades.

In this episode, we talk about the big winners of 1948, including the British Invasion that was HAMLET starring Laurence Olivier. We also cover TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE (starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson...just kidding) and JOHNNY BELINDA, which was kind of traumatic.
