To kick off our 2022 Halloween season, we're covering the 1955 psychological thriller/horror film Les Diabolique!

Special Guest: Sangita.

We're back with the 67th Best Picture winner: Forrest Gump. After a long run of good but very tough winners, turn to something more uplifting and talk good writing, sassy editing, and unusual visual effects. Will this comedy drama continue our streak of good winners, or will it pale in comparison?

Join Ian and Maggie as they cover Schindler's List. While the intense violence and brutality of the Holocaust depicted in the film make it a difficult and emotional watch, both hosts agree this 1993 winner is one of the best films they've covered.

Trigger warning for intense racial violence and antisemetism.

For this special 100th episode, we're throwing it way back to the very first Academy Awards. We're discussing the first and only film to win Most Unique and Artistic Picture, why we wish that category hadn't disappeared, and how Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans makes us wish we knew more about silent film.

Join our hosts and special guest Lola for this extra special summer episode! They discuss the 1960s beach movie genre focusing in what can only be described as "the most bonkers" example: Beach Blanket Bingo. There's sky diving, mermaids, and a surprising amount of tangents on kidnapping.

Special Guest: Lola.

Join Maggie and Ian as they cover 1992's winner, Unforgiven. Despite mixed opinions going into this episode, Ian and Maggie found they both appreciated the top-notch visuals, complex characters, and ultimately the completely satisfying (if sometimes difficult to watch) story arcs.

Trigger warning for violence against women.

Join Ian and Maggie as they finally cover the only horror movie to ever win Best Picture. Now that they're all out of delay tactics, will they be able to make it through one of the most intense movies they've covered to date?

Our hosts take a break between best picture winners to break down this underrated 1980s western.

Join our hosts for the 63rd best picture winner and western epic, Dances with Wolves. Despite having all the trappings of a great western, Dances with Wolves managed to dissappoint. The expansive score and top-notch visuals just couldn't make up for the flat writing of our main character's arc and the heavy reliance on the white savior trope.

We're back with another cult classic and a new special guest to celebrate our 4th podcast-iversary! We discuss costuming, performances, and which character we'd least like to investigate a spooky old mansion with.

Big thank you to everyone who's stuck with us these past four years, and to newer listeners, welcome!
