Every so often, I receive requests from longtime listeners who miss the way this podcast first began with me recommending and telling solo tales about excellent films you might've missed. And while I'm seriously flattered and thrilled you enjoyed those very humble, low-fi, old school eps, I would just as soon stick to the format of conversations with thoughtful, funny, brilliant, and charismatic friends and colleagues.

Still, once in a while, it's important to change things up and venture out of your comfort zone. Since I'm currently going slightly stir crazy while recovering from a small surgery, and completely in love with all seven films I wanted to cover this week, I decided to use the opportunity of our hiatus from traditional episodes to record another chatty, film fact, and anecdote-filled installment for you all. Incredibly nerdy, personal, and very long, my best advice would be to listen to these segments about the films The Clock, For Me and My Gal, The Godfather Trilogy, The Last Waltz, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, Ordinary People, and The Untouchables one at a time and take plenty of breaks, because it's a whole lot of Jen, but you do what's right for you!

Without further ado, I hope you'll enjoy my film geek rambling, and please stay tuned because I'm working on several new episodes in our regular format which will start dropping when we return from hiatus in the coming weeks. Thank you for your continued support!
