Hepburn springs into action in these classic 60s thrillers: the fun and feisty Charade (1963), dubbed "the best Hitchcock movie that Hitchcock never made" and the gripping Wait Until Dark (1967), with a heart-stopping climax that movie theaters ensured was an immersive experience. Tune in and discover two Audrey films you HAVE to watch!

Love is in the air and in our hearts and on our screens! That's right - it's another Cinema Drive Valentine's Day! Audrey Hepburn is our inspiration and our fascination this year - the starlet that sprang upon the scene in Roman Holiday (1953) and enchanted audiences everywhere. Charming, effervescent, and winning, she captured our hearts with iconic romances perfect to cuddle up to this holiday.

Jason and Ryan unleash an unreserved appreciation for an unexpected and unlooked-for delight: Alien: Romulus (2024)! Fede Alvarez soars above the pratfalls and tired tangents of the franchise, treading new starscapes with eagerness and cunning. Fresh ideas pay homage and respect to what's come before while still forging an original story. It's not too bold to claim this as the best sequel since Aliens (1986)!

Say howdy-do to one of Jason's longtime idols! James Dean burned quick but bright and left an iconic mark on our culture and cinema. East of Eden (1955) and Rebel Without a Cause (1955) are twin titans of the 50s that show Dean at his biggest and best. Jason and Ryan compete to see who will be the coolest co-host as they devote an episode to the coolest cat of them all!

The Deep Question: Congratulations! The powers that be at Hollywood tap you on the shoulder to be the next hot movie director. You get to co-direct your first film with an established director. Who do you hope it is?
