Scene and Heard episodes

  • Wild Strawberries [1957]

    Jackie and Greg take a drive down memory lane for their discussion of Ingmar Bergman's WILD STRAWBERRIES from 1957. Topics of discussion include the film's sentimentality, where it sits in Bergman's filmography, how its most powerful moments make up for its shortcomings, the influence of Dickens and THE PHANTOM CARRIAGE, and why it'll endure for generations to come.

    Jackie and Greg are joined by Aaron Strand of the Behind the Slate podcast in their discussion of Charlie Chaplin's MODERN TIMES from 1936.

  • Sunset Blvd. [1950]

    Jackie and Greg pull into the crumbling mansion of Hollywood’s past for Billy Wilder's SUNSET BLVD. from 1950. Topics of discussion include the film's gothic atmosphere and pulpy narration, which actors came close to playing the lead roles, Gloria Swanson's larger-than-life performance, and how it set the stage for the acidic anti-Hollywood films that would follow in its wake.
