Two Thumbs Undecided

Panahi made news recently for his release from Iranian prison after a hunger strike. The director made history in 1995 by winning the Caméra d'Or (best first feature film) at Cannes, making Panahi the first Iranian to win a major award at Cannes. He has since gone on to go on making classics like The Mirror, Offsides, This is Not a Film, Taxi, and most recently No Bears. His progressive films have often been banned by the Iranian government. His work is a testament to the power and love of filmmaking.

Writer/Director of the gruesome movie Bone Tomahawk and the pretty good Vaughn flick Brawl in Cell Block 99, ye ol' Zah-dog gives the brothers a lot to talk about.

Remember those old Movie Guide books you saw on your grandparents library? The one with the old dude smiling at you like he new everything about movies. Well we're talking about that guy. 

What is it! 

Mr. New york times movie review himself! We talk about one of the most iconic movie reviewers currently working. 

The brothers talk to Possum Hill! Current head of content and creative at 1824 Universal Music Group, but also Sam's old boss back when he was a senior director of video production at Capitol Records and Sam was a wee intern. 

Perhaps one of the most famous and influential American film critics, Pauline Kael is a tough subject to tackle. But the brothers give it a go in this ongoing series of film critics. 

The lesser known of the Siskel and Ebert show, Gene Siskel was a man with strong opinions. Watch the brothers remain undecided on him.

Starting our new critics series off right. The old grouch himself. A dilly of a podcast. YEEHOOOOO!
