This week, Andrew saw.... almost nothing. This leaves Jack to carry nearly all of the load of the 2 Minute Movie Mile, and he saw a bunch of new releases and a couple of classics. The two hosts come together to talk about a film they watched together: Walt Disney's first feature film (and the first ever in animation with synchronized sound).

Movies: STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON - BOYZ N THE HOOD - THE END OF THE TOUR - SHAUN THE SHEEP - AMERICAN ULTRA - PAPILLON - CASINO JACK - GASLIGHT (1944) - MISTRESS AMERICA - SNOW WHITE & THE SEVEN DWARFS

Songs: Jubilee Stomp by Duke Ellington

Heigh Ho by Tom Waits

Did you know that the word 'dinosaur' actually means 'Awful Terrible Lizard'? Or something like that? And what does 'UCB' mean, is that code for something top-secret (or something totally not)? And what happens when one has to change their name to not sound like a former child star turned pop disaster? If any of these questions interest you, then you may want to take a listen to this conversation with the lovely and talented actress LINDSAY ELIZABETH HAND.

Currently, Lindsay can be seen in the new web-series AWFUL TERRIBLE LIZARDS, and is a producer/writer of that as well as another production under her company EDGE IN MOTION - Riding the D with DR. SEEDS (re: episode 3 of Local Vocal, folks). She does comedy - see her website below for details on upcoming dates in NYC - and acts in sci-fi and dramas and all sorts of weird and wild stuff online and elsewhere. Good talk here, check it out!

What do Hitchcock, Kung-fu Panda, Revenge of the Sith, Tarkovsky and They Live all have in common? Nothing. Except, maybe, that the power of artistic expression influences a bearded guy who looks and sounds like he's done possibly some drugs... by that we mean the drugs of KNOWLEDGE. And analysis. And ideologies. And Coca-Cola.

Join us for a discussion of Slavoj Zizek, and the two films directed by Sophie Fiennes that feature him most prominently: THE PERVERTS GUIDE TO CINEMA and THE PERVERT'S GUIDE TO IDEOLOGY.

What do William Shakespeare and Stanley Kubrick have in common? Aside from being two of the top people in their respective plains of theater and cinema? How about men's rise to power? How to get it, how to hold on to it? What it means to *be* something? Here, Jack and Andrew take a look at stories involving men like Redmond Barry (cum Barry Lyndon), Marc Antony and Brutus, who looked at where they were and thought, 'Hmm... what to do now...'

Oh, and by the way, we have a returning director - the only one on both of Jack and Andrews' respective lists.

Joseph L. Mankiewicz's JULIUS CAESAR (1953)

Stanley Kubrick's BARRY LYNDON (1975)

PARENTAL ADVISORY NOTICE (fy) for Explicit Language...

Check out the big-movie-watching brain on Andrew! This time, for the first time since the first Two-Minute-Movie-Mile, Andrew sees more movies than Jack, but altogether the movies discussed go from auteurist spectacles in blockbuster form (Coppola and Nolan) to animated films (Wes Anderson and Miyazaki). Before this, Jack and Andrew discuss the Fox's FAN4TASTIC fiasco, and the trailer for Tarantino's HATEFUL EIGHT.

Films discussed: THE VANISHING (1988) - THE GIFT (2015) - FANTASTIC MR. FOX - THE DARK KNIGHT - RUSSIAN ARK - TRAINWRECK - THE ILLUSIONIST (2010) - HOW THE WEST WAS WON - PORCO ROSSO - THE BABADOOK - HARD CANDY - APOCALYPSE NOW (again, re: Episode 1) - PERSEPOLIS - PAPER TOWNS - (Andrew's Marathon): CORALINE - WATERSHIP DOWN - WAKING SLEEPING BEAUTY - CLUELESS

theme song is Duke Ellington's "Jubilee Stomp", end song is "Ride of the Valkyries" by Wagner (both public domain/fair use)

This is Martin Scorsese. Who is he? Well...

Because what goes better than Scorsese and his calling card about Keitel and De Nrio and life in Little Italy in the early 70's and atomic-age ants with exposition by Edmond Gwenn?

Martin Scorsese's MEAN STREETS (1973)

Gordon Douglas' THEM! (1954)

This week, Jack and Andrew start off taking on a listener comment about the previous episode on movie scores (looking at you John Williams and Dvorak), and then go right into the movies the hosts saw, together and separate, ranging from Hollywood product, new the not-so-new, and some independent and documentary fare, too. Once again Jack hogs the mic, but only after the 34:15 mark into ‘Marathon’ mode. As for the films Jack and Andrew saw together, it’s both the highest and lowest of cinematic tastes…

Two-Minute-Movie-Mile:

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – ROGUE NATION – HOUSE OF WAX (1953) – CALIGULA – SOUTHPAW – THE ADVENTURES OF PRINCE ACHMED – THE STANFORD PRISON EXPERIMENT – FIRDAY THE 13th (2009) – IRRATIONAL MAN – PAPRIKA – DOLAN’S CADILLAC - WHILE WE’RE YOUNG – HOT GIRLS WANTED – TRICKED – DAYS OF THUNDER – 36TH CHAMBER OF SHAOLIN – BAD NEWS BEARS (2005)

Movies need music sometimes. Or much of the time. For some filmmakers, their works won't fly without the melodies the composers work for them. People like John Williams. Danny Elfman. Nino Rota. Trent Reznor. Jonny Greenwood. Miklos Rosza. And of course Bernard Herrmann and Ennio Morricone. These and more are discussed on this very MUSICAL episode of the show.

Oh, and we make a theremin joke. Spoilers.

(Also, there was an audio issue during recording, which is why our voices sound not the same. Our apologies).

What do Howard Hawks and Terence Malick have in common? Well... maybe not much. But you won't know until you hear Jack talking about the Howard Hawks production of THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD and Andrew on Terence Malick's 1973 masterpiece debut BADLANDS
