In honor of The Shawshank Redemption's 30th Anniversary, Bald Move is re-releasing their podcast for listeners who have been around and those just joining. Enjoy the anniversary release!

Special thanks to Hatorian, who by right of conquest in the Bald Move Fantasy Football leagues has won his prize; a commissioned podcast of his choice. He has chosen wisely, selecting the classic 1994 prison/drama/inspirational The Shawshank Redemption. This is a nearly perfect piece of filmmaking, with a confidence in pacing and direction from Frank Darabont matched by the nuanced work of the film's two leads, Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman. We had a lot of fun watching and discussing this one Hatorian. Hopefully, it won't be the longest podcast of your life...

A.Ron and Jim revisit this sophomoric take on vigilante justice. The director of this movie, Troy Duffy, is clearly a Tarantino fan. Did this male-power fantasy age well? Well…no. So why not? And can it be redeemed by Norman Reedus and Willem Dafoe?

Who was Ed Wood? This infamous auteur gathered a cult-following, a precursor of the “Ed Breen”s and “Tommy Wiseau”s of today. In this movie, Johnny Depp plays Ed Wood, an artist fighting the Hollywood machine, fighting societal expectations, and fighting for his friends. This highly quotable movie features lots of laughs, heartbreak, and otherwise obscure Hollywood history.

Francis Ford Coppola swung for the fences on this project. Megalopolis (2024) is a large, star-studded cast of people you know and love. The sci-fi, the drama, and the acting all have highs and lows through the film. Without the benefit of foresight, it’s hard to know exactly how this movie will impact the audiences of the future. But in the present, it just seems like Coppola thinks you’re a bit slow. 

The next Bald Move First Run movie is Gladiator 2 (2024)!

Packed with detail, nuance, and hints, it’ll have you guessing until the very end. Join Jim and A.Ron as they comb over the details and hints in this brain-teaser of a film.

What happens when you have an unrepentant killer as a protagonist? The Sword of Doom (1966) directed by Kihachi Okamoto won’t give you the answer to that question, but will give you plenty of time to consider it. This work of ultra-violent mayhem serves as inspiration for many western action flicks. Unpack this work of accidental genius with Jim and A.Ron.

Thank you Michael for commissioning this podcast!

From director Jonathan Lynn comes the rare courtroom comedy. My Cousin Vinny stars Joe Pesci, Marisa Tomei, Fred Gwynne, and…Ralph Macchio? The cast chemistry is exquisite, the writing is hilarious, and Marisa Tomei won an Oscar for her performance. The question isn’t “Will the Karate Kid be put to death?”, the question is “How will Joe Pesci get him out of this?”.

From writer/director Martin McDonagh comes Banshees of Inisherin (2022), a deeply sad and wildly hilarious movie about friendship on a remote island. This movie is sometimes referred to as the spiritual successor of In Bruges (2008) as it stars Brendan Gleeson and Colin Farrell. But is that an accurate statement? Tune in to hear Jim and A.Ron’s thoughts on this well-written and superbly acted film.
