It's a jam-packed episode, Screamers. We're talking three new films of the conversation starter persuasion: 'Saltburn,' 'Leave the World Behind,' and 'Poor Things.' Plus we dig into more Hal Hartley with the films 'Flirt,' and 'Amateur.' We also include plenty of other side tangents.

Welcome back, Screamers to part two of our look at the films of Hal Hartley. Today we're digging into the made-for-PBS film 'Surviving Desire,' and the finale of the Long Island Trilogy (Long Island is a terminal moraine), 'Simple Men.' We also discuss Hirokazu Kore-eda's latest film--and his first Japanese-language film since 2018--'Monster.' As a bonus, Jason imagines a world where James Van Der Beek was nominated for an Oscar for his star turn in 'Varsity Blues.'

Merry Happy Christmidays, Screamers.

On this episode we start our discussion on the under-seen, under-recognized, under-sung, under-appreciated independent filmmaker, Hal Hartley. We’re looking at Hartley’s first two films “The Unbelievable Truth,” and “Trust.” We also talk about David Fincher’s new Netflix job “The Killer.” Hang around for some recommendations and brief chat about Whilt Stedman, or Wyatt Steelman…

Trigger warning! On this episode: we don't like 'Killers of the Flower Moon,' and we tell you why. We also discuss Justine Triet's new film, the courtroom drama 'Anatomy of a Fall' and the Brazilian film 'Dry Ground Burning.' This episode is full of unpopular opinions--we have them so that you don't have to.

This episode kicks ass. Today we discuss the latest Fort Worth Film Club screening, 'You Won't Be Alone.' along with Goran Stolevski's follow-up film, 'Of an Age.' We also take a look at 'Passages' the new Ira Sachs' film starring Franz Rogowski, Ben Wishaw, and Adele Exarchopolous. Among other things, Jason expresses his affinity for novelty rap made for movies and performed by Oscar winners. This episode is worth every penny.

Next time we're digging into 'Killers of the Flower Moon,' 'Anatomy of a Fall,' and 'Dry Ground Burning.'

It's a sad day around the Wilhelm headquarters as we finish up our dive into the films of John Cassavetes. We wrap up with a look at "Gloria," and "Love Streams." Cassavetes was interested in exploring love, and the complicated, weird things we are as humans--and we love all of you for joining us on this journey. There's other stuff in this episode, too, but, really, it's all about Cassavetes. Remember: "Love is a stream, it's continuous, it doesn't stop."

Remember when studio audiences were a thing? Anyway, in this episode, we're discussing the latest screening from The Fort Worth Film Club: "Real Women Have Curves." And there's more Cassavetes: "The Killing of A Chinese Bookie," and "Opening Night." Something we've found out during this Cassavetes journey: these movies are good, but, man, they're emotionally draining.
