The Dudes wear pink wigs and yellow camo in 2003's Lost in Translation. Sofia Coppola's film about two lonely souls struggling with who they are and where they are in life is a refreshing and unique take on the romance genre. Scarlett Johansson is wise beyond her years and Bill Murray gives an Oscar deserving performance as basically himself. You'll find yourself rooting for these two throughout the entire film, and feel completely satisfied by the end.

The Dudes make a desert of their home and yours with 1968's Planet Of The Apes.  For cultural impact, there are few films more important than Franklin J. Schaffner's classic, and that they keep trying to recapture it's glory with re-makes proves it's continued relevance.  But stay out of the Forbidden Zone with those re-makes, because the original can't be beat!

The Dudes discover the dark side of suburbia with 1986's Blue Velvet. If you've never experienced David Lynch, this is the place to start. It's got all the hallmarks: thrilling mystery, unsettling characters, and psycho-sexual encounters with people you probably shouldn't be involved with. Throw in an off-the-rails Dennis Hopper, and you've got a masterpiece. Just look out for severed ears.

The Dudes talk a lot of trash with 1992's White Men Can't Jump. The chemistry between Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson, both on screen and on the court, is magnetic. But can they use their talents to hustle peace into their lives? Either way, it's going to be fun. And remember, sometimes when you win, you actually lose, but you can also actually tie or something.

Other movies discussed:

Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched (2021) - Directed by Kier-La Janisse

Saturday Night (2024) - Directed by Jason Reitman

QUESTION OF THE WEEK:

The Dudes perform without their corsets with 1999's Topsy-Turvy.  This story of Gilbert & Sullivan's Mikado collaboration, along with the inner-workings of the Savoy Theatre is one of Mike Leigh's greatest achievements.  A successful opera isn't easy to pull together, and neither is a film that dramatizes such a production.  It's also Leigh's funniest film, and once you realize how much work the cast put into this one, you'll probably pass out.  But just have a cigarette, and you'll be grand.

Other movies discussed:

The Brutalist (2024) - Directed by Brady Corbet

September 5 (2024) - Directed by Tim Fehlbaum

The Dudes' blackmail plot goes awry in 2001's "The Man Who Wasn't There". Yeah, maybe it didn't go as planned, but they keep it cool, take another drag, and focus on the hair. Doris took the fall for Big Dave, but that's life. They aren't going to prance around about it. Besides, there's a young musician needing a boost. They can make that happen. Heaven to Betsy they can.

Bullit (1968) - Directed by Peter Yates

The Substance (2024) - Directed by Coralie Fargeat

The Dudes accept meatballs as payment with 1998's The Wedding Singer.  From everything we see, Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore are obviously meant for each other, but the movie won't let that happen, and almost takes pleasure in torturing you.  What keeps you interested is the chemistry of the leads, and some genuine laughs.  This is a good movie everybody, but it puts you to work.     

Other movies discussed:

Mr. McMahon (2024) - Directed by Chris Smith

Near Dark (1987) - Directed by Kathryn Bigelow

QUESTION OF THE WEEK:

What are the most infuriating movie romances?
