Andrew Bujalski has a new movie out. Were you aware? Having premiered quietly at Tribeca and then coming out even move quietly on VOD, THERE THERE is ambitious both structurally and in its production, and we are here to talk about it since it seems no one else will! We pair it with it's structural sibling, Max Ophüls' LA RONDE. Jesse talks Improv! Andy talks about acting duets! It's a goofy delight!

Tradition keeps us centered. We need things to return to year after year, cycle after cycle. It is our light in the darkness. But sometimes, the light in the darkness is a little too bright. Hence, it is our second annual SHADESGIVING/SHORTSGIVING episode! Once again we all brought a short to the table: James Benning and Bette Gordon's THE UNITED STATE OF AMERICA, Nick Park's WALLACE & GROMIT IN THE WRONG TROUSERS, Niki Lindroth von Bahr's THE BURDEN, and Peter Tscherkassky's TRAIN AGAIN. From the charming and hilarious to the experimental and existential, we are thankful for the opportunity to share this with our listeners!

In the past, when reading a book has been suggested as something the hosts of the show could do to provide fodder for an episode's destruction, there was yelling and gnashing of teeth. But now, with James Gray's Cannes premiere finally having its theatrical run and making its way to the VOD market, we are finally to break through the long resistance to the written word, and pair it some required reading. That's right, we're pairing ARMAGEDDON TIME with some short stories from George Saunders' LIBERATION DAY, "The Mom of Bold Action," "Love Letter," and "Ghoul." We talk parallels, point of view, big performances, and more!

It's been months since we checked the papers and read the news, so we spend a lot of time catching up on what's been happening. Distributors are distributing! Michael Chernus is maybe getting work? Films are eyeing winter debuts! All this plus some more Currents odds and ends!

We may not have made it to the New York Film Festival, but we still saw a number of the films from the Currents section, so Jesse and Emilio are joined by Jordan Cronk to talk about some of them including new features from Heinz Emigholz and Jonás Trueba and shorts from Nico Pereda and Ben Russell. Then we talk to Jordan about the screening series he runs in Los Angeles, Acropolis Cinema. And in Special Presentations: two books and an ominous update from Emilio.
Follow Jordan on twitter @JordanCronk and if you're in LA check out a screening at Acropolis Cinema

What's scarier than staying up past your bedtime for no good reason? Perhaps only a serial killer! The gang braves the elements to record at midnight eastern and take a look at Midnight Madness for The Final Spooktacular and the films of Dario Argento, classic and contemporary. From 1987's OPERA to 2022's DARK GLASSES, we get into his eye for gore, the gore of eyes, and all things slasher. Listen, IF YOU SCARE!!!
