  • Insomnia (1997 + 2002)
    2024/11/20

    Stellan Skarsgård and Al Pacino each star in their own version of the same story - a talented but troubled homicide detective may be forced to sway the results of an investigation to save his own ass. What makes it even more challenging? They're a fish out of water in a region where the sun never sets. Erik Skjoldbjærg and Christopher Nolan each give their take on Skjoldbjærg's original story resulting in two equally fascinating films. Dan and Jon share Al Pacino anecdotes and admire each film's strengths before chiming in with their own ideas on how Insomnia could be revisited.

  • Home for the Holidays (1995)
    2024/11/13

    Marketed as a dysfunctional family romp, 1995's Home for the Holidays is actually a witty drama focusing on different generations' views on keeping up appearances, generational trauma, and minding your own damn business. Perhaps also overshadowed by a challenging production due to Robert Downey, Jr.'s substance abuse issues, this Thanksgiving film marks Jodie Foster's 2nd directorial effort, showing a strong perspective on family life when you're all the black sheep. Dan and Jon share their thoughts on how this film could be revisited 30 years later.

  • Glen or Glenda (1953)
    2024/11/06

    In the 1950s, nobody paid too much attention to the films of Edward D. Wood, Jr, but his films hit cult status when they were rediscovered in the 70s & 80s. While some are simply low-budget b-movie schlock, one film is an ultra-personal exploration of his own gender identity. Now, Glen or Glenda is looked upon as an important landmark in queer cinema, specifically for the transgender community. Glen or Glenda also got additional attention after it was featured in the 1994 film Ed Wood, directed by one of Wood's admirers, Tim Burton. Dan and Jon celebrate the aspects of Glen or Glenda that make it special and imagine new ways to revisit this cult classic in the modern era.
