We are back this week with some classic early Venice predictions, news of release dates for Cannes movies, and Claude Chabrol’s LA CÉRÉMONIE! This is part of our “Listener Picks” where one of our recurring Ko-Fi donors gets the chance to pick a movie for us to discuss! Also we have a chunky special presentations segment where Andy and Jesse go off on THE STAIRCASE!

In the 2010's George Miller's MAD MAX FURY ROAD reigned supreme. In the 2000's it was Sam Raimi's DRAG ME TO HELL. And the 90s, it was none other than Alex Proyas's DARK CITY. So we come, at last, to the 80s with the earliest possible slate of Blockbusters. What film will take home the Palme? It's time for 80s CANNES BLOCKBUSTERS, and we bring back DAVID SIMS to lead our Jury.
The list of eligible films

As Emilio got settled in his AirBnB at Cannes, Andy, Cullen and Jesse convened to discuss the latest news from the world of festivals, as well as all the competition titles premiered to date (as of Tuesday afternoon) and the critical reception. What kind of Cannes year is it this year? What's the best received film so far? What are the most divisive movies? All this, and BJ Novak!

If life is but a dream, what if you had to draw over every single frame of it in order to make a movie? A nonsensical question to be sure, but on those lines this week we are looking at recent SxSW premiere APOLLO 10 1/2: A SPACE AGE CHILDHOOD, Richard Linklater's newest rotoscoped project, as well as his first effort in that arena WAKING LIFE. Together we talk about philosophy, the striking visuals, and of course, TV sitcoms of the 60s.
