January 18 The Luckiest Man in America
Very mixed feelings on this movie, which leads to an extended discussion of when a movie should tell the truth or change the story. In this case, the true story is fascinating (and we tell it) while the movie is…not so much. But some good acting with some great actors!

December 22, 2025 Pertwee: Carry on Cowboy
We always like to end a season by watching a movie that the Doctor was in — so here we go with Carry on Cowboy (featuring a very different performance by Pertwee from his Doctor portrayal) — how does it compare to Blazing Saddles???
