We're talking at 100 mph this week drinking a delish no-booze penicillin as we discuss the witty, snappy, fast-talking, hard-boiled comedy, His Girl Friday, as we analyze gender politics on and off screen. Starring Rosalind Russell, Cary Grant, and Ralph Bellamy. Cheers!

The Best Years of Our Lives? More like the best MOVIE of our lives! We are drinking a Nilsson this week as we discuss this epic and heartwarming post-war homefront drama, and boy does it deliver. We laughed, we cried, we learned a lot, and then we talked about it. We think this should be required viewing, do you agree? Starring Myrna Loy, Fredric March, Dana Andrews, Teresa Wright, Harold Russell, Virginia Mayo, and Cathy O'Donnell. Cheers! 

We're drinking a Ramos Tzatziki Fizz this week as we talk (and cry) about the ultimate classic movie, Casablanca. We love this timeless film and consider it a must watch for anyone who wants to dabble in the classics. Starring Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Paul Henreid, Claude Raines, Conrad Veidt, and Peter Lorre. Cheers!

We're sipping on a refreshing (alcohol free) cherry vamp as we discuss the glamour of the most beautiful art deco film, Grand Hotel. Tune is as we discuss how this movie revolutionized the "the look" of the Golden Age of Hollywood, the revolutionary innovation of the MGM art department, and of course, do what we actually came here to do: spend as much time as possible talking about the top star of MGM, and the undisputed queen of the Golden Age of Hollywood, Greta Garbo. Starring (you guessed it) Greta Garbo, Joan Crawford, John Barrymore, Lionel Barrymore, and Wallace Beery. Cheers! 

We're kicking off 2022 (and dry January) with...a nice tall glass of water as we start this month's series with a crash course on the iconic, dark, glamorous, and revolutionary Hollywood Studio System - the American film industry model that effectively created the Golden Age of Hollywood. We're discussing this fascinating moment in film history from the peak of Studio power to the hubristic downfall. What are our thoughts on screwball comedies and biblical epics, you ask? Spoiler: love the former, hate the latter. Listen all month for unfiltered opinions on individual films that contributed to the rise and fall of the Studio System. Cheers!

For our holiday season finale we are sipping on a Snow Day Sour and watching the ultimate Christmas classic, It's a Wonderful Life. Join us as we talk about the initial failure of this film, the surprise help of the Public Domain, the first time Lydia ever saw her sister cry, and how this movie helped Sara get through the Bar Exam. Starring Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed, and directed by Frank Capra. Cheers!

Drink a (holiday) negroni with us as we discuss the underrated classic, Christmas in Connecticut. Listen in as we justify our swearing, talk about the little known niche genre of post-war Christmas American propaganda films, pancake flipping, and basically just use this episode as a vessel to talk about our undying love of Barbara Stanwyck. Starring the queen herself, along with Dennis Morgan, Sydney Greenstreet, and S.Z. Sakall. Cheers! 

We're back with one of the most classic Christmas movies of all time, and we're drinking a variation of a fun Christmas sour today as we discuss the sweet, brilliant, and heartwarming Miracle on 34th Street. Listen now to hear both of us cry tears of joy at all the fun facts about this film. Starring Edmund Gwenn, Maureen O'Hara, Natalie Wood, and John Payne. Cheers!

Yuletide Greetings to all! To help us kick off December we are sippin' on margs and watching the absolutely delightful little stop-motion silent short film, the Insect's Christmas. A perfect palette cleanser going into the holidays with some sweet summersaulting beetles, a backflipping frog, and a tiny Santa bringing the forest bugs some Christmas cheer. Directed by Władysław Starewicz, and starring the insects from the Lithuanian Natural History Museum. Cheers!
