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.

The Life of the Mind! It’s what John Goodman promises/threatens to show us near the end of the Coen Brothers exceptional Cannes favorite BARTON FINK. We’ve talked in the past about how the volume of wins for FINK was such a sensation that Cannes instituted new rules about how to properly designate multi-award winning films, but what about the movie itself? We get into all of it, the cast, the setting, and where it sits in the ever popular Coens oeuvre. Also discussed: Important Cannes Fortnite (and other) news.

South by Southwest has come and gone, so we start off this week looking at the many many many winners from the film side of Austin’s big fest. After a thorough look at those naming rights, we take a look at another capitalistic dystopia, the world of Kathryn Bigelow’s reclaimed classic STRANGE DAYS! This is our first “Listener Pick” made by a recurring Ko-Fi donor to the show! We look at the brutality, innovation, and unsettling nature of the Ralph Fiennes/Angela Basset starring NYFF Centerpiece.
