On this episode of Woody Adjacent, James has chosen another Steve Martin film which is often hailed as one of his greatest and we had an interesting conversation about it - sadly the technical issues persist with the audio as we now deal with a recent bug caused by an apple update which we are still striving to fix

Welcome back to another episode of Woody Allen Adjacent

Today we are talking about a Rom-Com that hits all the typical beats that was made in the turn of the century with Actors that have come a massively long way since this feature - maybe nobodys seen it but it's Don's choice of the month

In Love and Sex (2000) Kate Welles (Famke Janssen), a sharp-witted journalist known for her explicit articles, finds herself fired for pushing the boundaries a bit too far. With her career on hold and a deadline looming, Kate reflects on her own chaotic love life in search of inspiration for an article on healthy relationships.

Her journey takes us through flashbacks of past relationships, from awkward childhood crushes to passionate but ill-timed encounters. We see her navigate the complexities of dating, facing challenges like a judgmental boyfriend hung up on her past and a fling with a charming but emotionally unavailable actor (Jon Favreau). As she grapples with the highs and lows of her past romances, Kate starts to question her own approach to love and intimacy in her life

On a side note - the video we referenced in that FRIENDS episode can be found here - unless youtube takes it down in future

We are BACK with another delightful conversation for Woody Adjacent

Apologies for the continued technical issues hitting us on this episode.

Editing couldn't quite fix annoying microphone peaking, echoing and some artifacting from Zoom  >_<  We are still working out some annoying lil bugs while using our newer machines that will be straightened out sooner rather than later but alas enough excuses... on with the show!

Today we finally get to not only a recommended title by Woody fans but James pick for this month... another Charle Kaufman venture which is actually an animated / stop motion feature

In Anomalisa (2015) follows Michael Stone (voiced by David Thewlis), a jaded and lonely motivational speaker who perceives everyone around him as identical – same face, same voice (voiced by Tom Noonan). This monotony extends to his wife and son, leaving him feeling deeply disconnected from the world.

During a business trip to Cincinnati, Michael stumbles upon a glimmer of hope. He encounters Lisa (voiced by Jennifer Jason Leigh), a hotel employee with a unique voice that breaks through his monotonous perception. A tentative connection sparks between them, offering a potential escape from his lonely existence.

Welcome back to another episode of Woody Allen Adjacent here on the Retrospective Podcast!

Today we are talking about another movie from the 90's.. a very very small movie with a hugely celebrated actor..

We have some fun suggestions on what Woody Allen Movies he could have done well in since his actual planned movie role with Woody Fell through in the mid 2000's which was quite unfortunate

This movie is a really great showcase of his talents though that many people seemed to have missed or snubbed :P

So with that said.. lets talk about 1997's - Two Girls And A Guy

Welcome back to another episode of Woody Allen Adjacent!

We want to give a massive thank you to one of our wonderful listeners: PAUL STICKNEY who recommended we give the works of Edward Burns a look as a good match for future adjacent talks!

Edward Burns seems to be most celebrated for his first directorial movie: The Brothers McMullen but before we get to that one i thought lets take a side step and actually check up his follow up movie with a really cool cast

In "She's The One" (1996) Mickey Fitzpatrick (Edward Burns), a heartbroken cab driver recently dumped by his fiancée Heather seeks solace in a whirlwind marriage to the impulsive artist Hope (Maxine Bahns). Meanwhile, Mickey's seemingly perfect brother Francis (Mike McGlone) harbors a secret affair one Heather, adding another layer of complication. As Mickey navigates his unconventional marriage and Francis wrestles with guilt, the past resurfaces – with hints that Heather may not be exactly who she seems.

Thank you so much for listening - We are still hopeful in asking that you would please consider supporting our colleague and friend Carly in this trying time as she deals with medical treatment and could really use your support - please check out her Go Fund Me campaign below

Welcome back to another episode of Woody Allen Adjacent!

This month we are talking about one of the worlds most celebrated comedic actors who has some really interesting parallels to Woody Allen - this movie in particular seems to be a jokey-poke love letter to a city very close to his heart that, of course, we have a good ol' conversation about

In L.A. Story (1991) Harris K. Telemacher (Steve Martin) trudges through his life as a bored weatherman in Los Angeles. His job feels unfulfilling, his relationship with his materialistic girlfriend Trudi (Marilu Henner) is stagnant, and the city's superficiality grates on him.

One night, a chance encounter with a talking freeway billboard (voiced by Rebecca De Mornay) throws his world upside down. The billboard becomes Harris' unlikely confidante, offering him witty advice and nudging him towards a more fulfilling life.

As Harris seeks love and meaning, he crosses paths with two compelling women: Sara (Victoria Tennant), a sharp-witted British journalist researching L.A. culture, and SanDee (Sarah Jessica Parker), a ditzy aspiring model with an unusual way of spelling her name ("Sandy" in the credits).

Through hilarious mishaps and surreal encounters (think exploding sushi and a conga line of celebrities), Harris embarks on a journey of self-discovery. He grapples with finding authentic connections in the shallow world of L.A., and the film playfully satirizes the city's quirks and obsessions.
