Scene and Heard episodes

  • The Rules of the Game [1939]

    Jackie and Greg discuss Jean Renoir's ensemble farce from 1939. Topics include the dawn of WWII, Renoir's overlapping characters and their influence on future generations of filmmakers, and the hunting scene in which over 100 animals are killed. Join them as they try their hardest not to compare Renoir's film to DOWNTON ABBEY (2010 - 2015) too frequently.

  • Imitation of Life [1959]

    Jackie & Greg struggle with the inclusion of Douglas Sirk's classic melodrama on the list. After making comparisons to the original film from 1934, they question the intent of the 1959 remake. Does Sirk bring anything new to the table? Is the film more popular than it should be due to the scandal surrounding the murder of Lana Turner's mobster boyfriend? Tune in and hear them at their most indifferent, as they attempt to suss out how much of the film is intentional, while pulling absurd dialogue from the film and going to town.

  • The Earrings of Madame De... [1953]

    Jackie & Greg discuss Max Ophüls' THE EARRINGS OF MADAME DE... from 1953.  This confectionary melodrama has everything: a sixteen-year age gap between lovers, opulent ballroom scenes, really long dolly shots, and dueling in the name of love.
