Love is in the air (that’s not an allergen for all you victims of pollen) and thus, Jim invites Scott Nye from CriterionCast onto I Do Movies Badly to help him learn how to love the films of the Master of Melodrama, Douglas Sirk. Listen as the boys discuss what melodrama is, why it doesn’t deserve the negative connotation it’s developed and how it has NOTHING to do with modern day rom-coms. As for the recommendations: Written on the Wind (1956), The Tarnished Angels (1957), and Imitation of Life (1959).

Tyler and David talk about the movies and TV shows they've watched recently, including To Have and Have Not and Alien 3.

Fakers teach us about reality. The Kickstarter counts down! Bad Grandpa, a fictional film taking place in our reality. Johnny Knoxville and the award worthy makeup effects department. A continuation and possible reversal of ethics from The Idiots. Something more extreme than french extreme – or, “french extreme with giggles.” How to be an honest liar. The Imposter, a documentary using the visual and storytelling clues of narrative fiction. Checkerboard lighting. Cinematography makes a metaphor. The audience hires a private investigator. Filmmakers as storytellers. Drama versus reality.

Contest to win things! Oh, and also, I suppose, the final episode of 1980s Fantasy Films in which Jim discusses the not-great-but-not-terrible Ladyhawke. Tune in to hear Jim talk about the awful score composed by Alan Parsons, the somewhat satisfying comedic stylings of a very young Matthew Broderick, and how 1980s fantasy films don’t seem to serve the genre. Also, a contest! Want to win a free DVD/Blu-ray copy of any of the titles Jim has discussed on the podcast up to now? Here’s your chance! Gotta listen to hear how though.

Tyler and David are joined by BP contributor Craig Schroeder to discuss the Marvel Cinematic Universe and vegan doughnuts.

The Dogme95 primer pays off! Two films from an obscure movement. Official Dogme95 No. 1: The Celebration. A film that refuses to tell you how to feel. Fear of the unreliable victim. Justified breakfast. What happens when Dogme95 plays by the rules. The perfect conclusion. By the way, there’s totally spoilers in this show. Official Dogme95 No. 2: The Idiots. Lars von Trier re-enters a trilogy. Life with the soft of mind. A defense of being obnoxious. The future of America’s culture wars. If it feels good, do it. Attempting to evaluate someone’s life with minimal context. No one should suffer (an apparently controversial opinion). Let people do what they need to do.
