Corbs and Matts talk about JAUJA, which is sort of like if Taken starred Viggo Mortensen, was excruciatingly slow, and ended with a deeply unsatasifying resolution. It was great! Please note that since recording this episode, Corbin learned about Patagonia. You can watch this week's movie here, on Kanopy.

Big Corbs and Lil' Matty Movies talk about THE TREE OF WOODEN CLOGS, an Italian neorealist epic about the Last Pesants and their nice community. Topics include: modernity's strange slow creep, the limits of community, and the weird little glasses the priest wears. Features audio problems because Corbin needs a New Mic, but you can handle that, right?

Matty and Corbsy talk about COMPUTER CHESS, American Director Andrew Bujalski's fable about AI, shitty hotels, flirting, free will and the Mysterious Man of Myth, Michael Papageorge.

Dr. Movies and Mr. Ducks take up "Wild in the Country," a Serious Drama starring Elvis Prestly, who you might know from his other, less dramatic roles. Discussion includes: screenwriter Clifford Odets, a leftist snitch who was also maybe corny, the hazy period when Hollywood was trying to break into method acting and not quite succeeding, if you can see Elvis as not-Elvis (you can't), and when, exactly, it became unacceptable to bang your cousin.

Corbin and Matt discuss OPPENHEIMER, Christopher "Mr. Movies" Nolan's biographical picture about the life and career of J. Robert Oppenheimer, the director of atomic bomb development at Los Alamos. Topics include: the hole where the idealogy was supposed to go, the movie's IMMACULATE casting, a therotical version of the movie made by Mike Leigh, and Nolan's dialogue.

Discussion regarding GOD TOLD ME TO, American sicko auteur Larry Cohen's tribute to the joys and perils of murdering someone because God said so. Topics include: the ways the movie has read throughout time, if movies should have narrative closure, and goop.

In our DEBUT EPISODE, Matt and Corbin talk about Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, the second film from the master of anime, Hayao Miyazaki. Topics include: natural and technological visions of apocalypse, the comic's more jaded, but also more fulfilling ending, and Matt's weird animation blind-spot.
