Two films by directors who are both considered masters of their craft: ABOUT ENDLESSNESS by Roy Andersson and Hayao Miyazaki's MY NEIGHBOUR TOTORO. Listen to the episode to figure out if they're (one) for you, as Olivia Tjon-A-Meeuw is joined by special guest Alan Mattli.

Two contenders in the ring this episode: THE PEANUT BUTTER FALCON and THE FOUL KING. Who will win, who will lose? The American Indie or the Korean hit? Or is it the audience? Only one way to find out: listen to Olivia and Andri struggle with the very concept of wrestling.

A double whammy of documentaries in this episode. Listen to figure out if HONEYLAND deserves its two Oscar nominations and hear Olivia & Andri discuss the lasting impact of PARIS IS BURNING.

In this episode, we have not one but two young boys who make strange friends. Jojo in JOJO RABBIT is friends with an imaginary version of Hitler, while Oskar in LET THE RIGHT ONE IN befriends newcomer Eli - who just happens to be a vampire.

In the first episode of 2020 we have a double bill of couples on the run: New release QUEEN AND SLIM tries to grapple with the consequences of police brutality against African-Americans. Classic BONNIE AND CLYDE complicates the depression-era gangster duo and pushes against the boundaries of what was acceptable on screen in 1967.

It is time for our favourite films of the year (that we haven't yet talked about in detail)! Hear what we have to say about BOOKSMART and THE LAST BLACK MAN IN SAN FRANCISCO, our other contenders for the title and the films of 2020 we're looking forward to.

Is HUSTLERS a rallying cry for female solidarity? Is Tarsem Singh's THE FALL style over substance? Olivia Tjon-A-Meeuw and guest Mansi Tiwari try to answer these and loads of other questions (such as: Why won't there be a discussion of JUMANJI - THE NEXT LEVEL on the podcast?) in this laughter filled episode.

We dive in to THE IRISHMAN, Martin's Scorsese's latest gangster epic, discussing the relevance of such a story and debate the success of the de-aging technology. The gem WEST SIDE STORY doesn't aim for realism, instead opting for a bright technicolour retelling of ROMEO & JULIET with political themes that still resonate today.

Olivia is joined by special guest Alan Mattli on this epsiode. He brought with him the 1961 classic CLÉO DE 5 À 7 by legendary director Agnes Varda. But before they dive into that, the Swiss documentary MADAME gets its due.

Listen to Olivia and Andri as they discuss 1) THE LAUNDROMAT, Steven Soderbergh's movie about the scandal knowns as Panama Papers and 2) SING STREET, John Carney's ode to the ubending optimism of youth.
