We have a very special guest this time! Our friend Becca loves the movie Scream, possibly even more than Laura. Becca shares a ton of interesting facts about the movie and adds quite a bit to our podcast. We were honored to have her.

This one is Laura's #16 and it's all about horror movies and playing with, what in 1996 was a rather stale genre.

Enjoy!

The End of a decade. Congrats to us for reviewing a full decade of films! (Yeah, congratulate us dammit!) Anyway, the nominated films released in 1979 are:

All That Jazz

Breaking Away

Kramer Vs. Kramer

Norma Rae

Apocalypse Now

Listen in on why Laura thinks this Jane Austen adaptation is one of the best movies out there.  Romantic, funny, well-paced, beautiful costumes and a behind-the-scenes love affair that has lasted for decades. It's no wonder that Emma Thompson is her friendship crush and Laura confesses that she wants to hang out with her and drink margaritas!

So we know it gets confusing with the year we're talking about. So this epsiode talks about the films released in 1977 where the winner was presented at the 1978 Academy Awards. Got it? Good(ish).

The films:

Annie Hall

Goodbye Girl

Julia

Star Wars

The Turning Point

Please, please please, drop us a comment. We really do want to hear your feedback. We want to make the channel the best it can be, but we're just kinda winging it until y'all start dropping the well intended feedback. Just sayin' early adopters get to help shape the channel.

Laura talks about why The Great Escape is her # 19 pick of all time. Darryl thinks part of the end is a comedy, and she corrects him. Quite firmly. 

Darryl defends why #casablanca is one of the greatest films of all time. Laura agrees and (tries to) defend why she had never watched it before.
