Comedy Tragedy Marriage

Stan’s pick this week is Guillermo del Toro’s Academy Award winning adult fairy tale “The Shape of Water.” Stan loves the film, but will Maude?

She suffered it and then she wanted to see it. Maude the Dizzy Broad picked the Alfred Hitchcock classic “Vertigo.” She and Stan the Movie Man thought they had seen it before, but got a wake-up call by the end.

Maude has vertigo, not the Alfred Hitchcock classic, but actual room-spinning vertigo, so Stan is going it alone for this episode. He discusses what they’ve watched, his opinion on Brahms: The Boy 2 and entertainment news headlines. It’s short AND sweet...just like Stan.

Stan’s pick caused him stress as he was afraid Maude would not like the world’s introduction to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Iron Man, and that would break his little heart. Is the dream over?

The world’s of opera and terrorism collide in Maude’s choice this episode, the 2018 film “Bel Canto.” Will she and Stan agree the film hits all the right notes?

Boldly going where no Trek had gone before...into theaters! Stan’s pick is Star Trek: The Motion Picture and he and Maude have thoughts and feels about the return of Kirk, Spock, McCoy and the rest of the Enterprise crew.

Stan and Maude tune in and drop out with the likes of the Mamas and the Papas, Buffalo Springfield, the Byrds and more in the music documentary “Echo in the Canyon.”

Stan the Movie Man picked this week’s movie, Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite. Stan thinks it’s one of the best movies he’s ever seen while Maude the Flummoxed Broad agrees it’s a movie.

Maude’s pick this episode is a look back at the life of an amazing singer gone far too soon. We watched Amy, the documentary following the meteoric rise and devastating fall of Amy Winehouse.

For the first episode of 2020, it was Stan’s turn to pick. The Will Ferrell film Stranger Than Fiction has history with Stan, and he wanted to share it with Maude the Cookie Broad. All of this will make more sense after you listen to the episode.
