À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE
Today we’re hitting the slots and talking about Casino, a three-hour epic that’s more or less “what if Goodfellas but in Las Vegas.” The result? A pretty good movie! We discuss the unique narration choices, Sharon Stone’s terrific performance, the seven (!)

This week we’re trekking to the hot springs and getting EXISTENTIAL! Reichardt’s sophomore film, Old Joy, is a fascinating meditation on friendship, generational splintering, and Bush era stagnation, all set in the Pacific Northwest that will eventually become a staple of her films. Topics discusse…
Wendy and Lucy is one of the saddest films we’ve covered. It’s a story of a person that society usually chooses to ignore, and forces viewers to confront the grave realities of homelessness. Also, there’s an entitled teenage grocer that Henry may or may not want to punch in the face. Safe to say, w…
