On tonight’s episode, we warmly welcome Corwynne Peterson to the show! A fellow acting schoolmate of Dave’s and a hugely talented one at that, Corwynne is the perfect guest to talk about our four movies tonight.

First, after some breaking news and birthday wishes (10:29), we checked in to a Californian Airbnb to check on our favorite snail not named Turbo and check out the Jenny Slate vehicle “Marcel the Shell with Shoes On” (22:21), no. 220 on Letterboxd’s Official Top 250 Narrative Feature Films List.

Then, we crossed the Pacific to muse about two classics of Asian cinema: Wong Kar-wai’s vividly drenched-in-red and atmospheric romance “In the Mood for Love” (36:17) and Hirokazu Kore-eda’s 2018 wayward soulscape “Shoplifters” (53:35), numbered 54 and 143, respectively.

Last and certainly not least, Evan, Dave, and Corwynne spoke on Corwynne’s selection for the night, the Great Depression-era father-daughter caper “Paper Moon” (01:08:20), the Ryan and Tatum O’Neal masterpiece coming in at 104 on the List.

Hope you enjoy the show!

Welcome back to the pod! On tonight’s episode, the second of Season 2, Dave and Evan were joined by fellow thespian and cinephile, Chris Castagna! After some birthday wishes and news dishes (04:34), they first tackled the sweaty and sweltering “Do the Right Thing,” Spike Lee’s landmark 1989 film and No. 55 on Letterboxd’s Official Top 250 Narrative Feature Films list (18:05). They then jettisoned to post-war Italy for the melancholic yet magical “Bicycle Thieves,” listed at No. 125 (43:39). Thirdly, they traveled BACK to New York City for the satirically timeless Scorsese-De Niro collab “The King of Comedy,” currently No. 207 (01:05), before Lastly, dontcha know, Chris selected “Fargo” for our final viewing pleasures, reveling in discussion on the 1996 Coen masterpiece and No. 238 film on our list (01:20). Hope you enjoy the show!
