SNOBBIES! This is the LAST young snobs episode of the bunch. We are very happy and blessed to welcome Nathan and Luca Mendes. The MENDES brothers from the land of Brazil! This episode was a blast as the brothers picked a film that we did NOT expect, 2018’s…from director’s John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein…GAME NIGHT! Jason Bateman’s best and most straight man and Jesse Plemons’s absolute most hilarious and awkward roles he’s ever done. This was such a fun film to talk about and thank you SOOOOOO much to the young snobs that stopped in to chat with us. YOU are the future. Enjoy.

1 hr 9 min - The Long Day Closes (1992) (TERENCE DAVIES MONTH #4)
Good morning SNOBBIES! And welcome back to our episode on Terence Davies month. This week we have Jared’s pick and he decided to go with “The Long Day Closes.” This film has a similar feel and vibe to Distant Voices, Still Lives. In this film we follow the perspective of Bud, a boy in Liverpool in the 1950’s, coming of age around the other family members and the austere Catholic Church as he enters the rigors of school, nurtures a bedazzled love of the movies and longs for companionship. Jared says this is a near perfect film and Terence Davies best film he’s ever made. We dive into childhoods, favorite shots, the Davies Dissolve, and much much more. Enjoy!

1 hr 18 min - Throwback Week: MXP Most Xtreme Primate (original air date: 3/08/2021)
Snobbies. Welcome to a new segment. Today we are featuring an old ep from the archives. This episode is one that we have talked about more than once on the podcast. The topic when this originally aired was "Going on a Journey." This was Ricky's week to pick a film and he decided to go with MXP Most Xtreme Primate as the film that best represented "Going on a Journey." You can tell on the pod, but I was a little less than enthusiastic about this pick. Probably one of the only times I've actively tried to derail a podcast due to how horrible the film was. Ahhh, fun times. Anyway, enjoy this throwback week as we recuperate after the holidays and we WILL be back with Jared's Terence Davies pick next time! See you then!

This week was Cody’s pick and he chose to go with the director’s last film that he ever made…Benediction. A film that truly has some of the most incredible acting we have ever seen. The film features a war time military man who is put into a mental hospital to quiet his dissenting voice. The film follows the man’s life and love’s.
