  • Ep. 003 - Arrival (Villeneuve, 2016)/ Story of Your Life (Chiang, 1998)

    **This episode contains full spoilers**

    In episode three, Laura and Danny explore Ted Chiang's 1998 novella Story of Your Life, and the changes that Denis Villeneuve made in his 2016 movie, Arrival. It's pretty hard to stay objective when you're discussing a favorite movie, so bear with them, because through an alien smoke screen of admiration is a bunch of really interesting analysis!

  • Ep. 002 - Shutter Island (Lehane, 2003/ Scorsese, 2010)

    **This episode contains full spoilers**

    Well hello, episode TWO! Laura and Danny discuss Dennis Lehan's WILD ride of a novel, Shutter Island (2003), and Scorsese's 2010 adaptation. Do your favorite podcast hosts make it to the end of the episode without questioning their own realities? And what's in the funny cigarettes that Danny keeps giving Laura?

  • Ep. 001 - Call Me By Your Name (Aciman, 2007/ Guadagnino, 2017)

    **This episode contains full spoilers**

    In the inaugural episode of Film is Lit, Danny and Laura discuss the greatest love story of all time: Call Me By Your Name. Elio and Oliver (or is it Oliver and Elio?)'s time spent together somewhere in Italy in the 1980s is passionate and tender, but does Luca Guadagnino's 2017 movie adaptation live up to its source material (André Aciman's 2007 novel)? Could it even...eclipse it? This episode is a peach! *wink*
