It's the first of our many encounters with Martin Scorsese on this show, and we're opening it up with a real heavyweight. We're talking about RAGING BULL, Scorsese's 1980 masterpiece featuring a performance by Robert DeNiro that redefined acting for an entire generation. Mike Lydon and Nicole Vettese return to spar with this challenging, beautiful, fascinating film.

Next week's episode: In A Lonely Place 

Now is the winter of our discontent, made glorious summer by the release of this week's episode! Andy Bowman from the Geek 101 and Monkey Off My Backlog podcasts joins me to discuss Richard Loncraine's explosive 1995 adaptation of Shakespeare's RICHARD III, featuring a breakout performance from Ian McKellan as the Bard's nastiest villain. This sets the story in an alternate history version of WWII era London, and doesn't skimp on modern-era sex, violence, and style.

Next week's episode: Some Like It Hot 

Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown, as Orson Welles can attest with CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT, his bold remixing of Shakespeare's HENRY IV and HENRY V. Mike Lydon, host of the Cult Standard and Courage the Cowardly Podcast, joins me to discuss Welles' debauched interpretation of Falstaff, the incredible trickery that went into the production, and one of the coolest battle scenes ever.
