  • Trench Coats and Trouble: Noirvember and the Art of Film Noir on Kanopy
    Nov 14 2025
    Think film noir is all detectives and femme fatales? Think again. Kristy and Jeff trade daylight for streetlights as they slip into the smoky, shadowy world of Noirvember — a month-long celebration of crime, cynicism, and cinematic style. From doomed lovers to desperate antiheroes, this episode proves that in film noir, everyone’s guilty of something. 🎬 Welcome back to The Film Library, a Kanopy podcast where we spotlight hidden gems, cult favorites, and movies that linger long after the credits roll — no film degree required. This week, hosts Kristy Puchko (Entertainment Editor at Mashable) and Jeff Rauseo (film lover and noir obsessive) dive deep into the films that help define the noir genre. From shadow-drenched classics to hardboiled neo-noirs, they explore how filmmakers keep reinventing the art of darkness. Together, they unpack why noir endures — the fatalism, the shadows, the flawed humanity — and how its influence stretches into today’s indie thrillers. Whether it’s a desperate detective, a femme fatale, or a bad decision in the rain, this episode celebrates the beauty of bad choices and the allure of life in black and white.

From its chilling sound design to Peter Lorre’s unforgettable performance, M proves that true terror needs no gore, just guilt. 07:13 — The Hitch-Hiker (1953) Jeff hits the road with Ida Lupino’s stripped-down, high-tension thriller — one of the first noir films directed by a woman. Two friends, one gunman, and a desert that feels endless. Minimalism has never been this menacing. 11:56 — Bound (1996) Kristy rewires the genre with the Wachowskis’ sizzling debut. Jennifer Tilly and Gina Gershon’s chemistry is electric in this lesbian neo-noir about love, loyalty, and robbing the mob. Dangerous curves ahead. 15:49 — Thief (1981) Jeff heads to Chicago for Michael Mann’s neon-drenched heist film starring James Caan. A master safecracker dreams of going straight — until the underworld pulls him back in. Moody, meticulous, and magnetic. 19:40 — Winter’s Bone (2010) Kristy trades the city for the Ozarks in Debra Granik’s haunting modern noir. Jennifer Lawrence’s breakout performance anchors a bleak, beautiful story of family, fear, and survival in the shadows. 23:11 — Gone Baby Gone (2007) Jeff closes with Ben Affleck’s morally murky debut — a Boston noir where every choice feels like a sin. Casey Affleck, Amy Ryan, and Ed Harris deliver a story that asks: what’s right when everything’s wrong?

  • Movies & Melodies: A Celebration of Musicals on Kanopy
    Oct 24 2025
    Think musicals are all jazz hands and happy endings? Think again. Kristy and Jeff pull back the curtain on movie musicals that hit every note — from campy cult sequels and chaotic rock operas to soulful folk tales and parody perfection. It’s a cinematic sing-along for anyone who’s ever belted out a showtune in the shower. 🎬 Welcome back to The Film Library, a Kanopy podcast where we spotlight hidden gems, cult favorites, and movies that linger in your mind long after the credits roll — no film degree required. This week, hosts Kristy Puchko (Entertainment Editor at Mashable) and Jeff Rauseo (film lover, karaoke enthusiast, and part-time jazz-hand practitioner) dive into the dazzling, unpredictable world of movie musicals. From the rebellious to the romantic — and the downright ridiculous — they’ve curated a lineup that proves this genre is anything but one-note. Jeff starts the show on a high note with Grease 2, the gloriously campy sequel that deserves more love, before diving into the punk-rock chaos of Her Smell and the psychedelic Beatles fantasia Across the Universe. Kristy counters with a trio of wild showstoppers: Mel Brooks’ original The Producers (a biting Broadway satire that started it all), the Coen brothers’ bittersweet folk odyssey Inside Llewyn Davis, and Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, a hilariously off-key biopic that turns parody into pure art. Together, they explore why musicals keep us coming back — the emotion, the excess, and the thrill of stories that can only be told through song. Whether it’s Michelle Pfeiffer bowling in heels, Oscar Isaac singing through heartbreak, or Daniel Radcliffe shredding on accordion, this episode celebrates the strange and spectacular side of the musical. So, tune up your vocal cords, warm up those jazz hands, and stream these toe-tapping treasures on Kanopy — no stage fright required. 🎤 Big feelings. Bold voices. Zero tuition required.

  • A Fright Fest for the Film-Obsessed: Kanopy’s Halloween Highlights
    Oct 10 2025
    Think you’ve seen it all when it comes to horror? Think again. Kristy and Jeff open the crypt to explore some of Kanopy’s creepiest, most unforgettable scares — from haunted Airbnbs and cursed convents to zombie trains and demonic detectives. It’s a cinematic séance for the film-obsessed. 🎬 Welcome back to The Film Library, a Kanopy podcast where we spotlight hidden gems, cult favorites, and movies that linger in your mind long after the credits roll — no film degree required. This week, hosts Kristy Puchko (Entertainment Editor at Mashable) and Jeff Rauseo (film lover, horror junkie, and lifelong Halloween enthusiast) celebrate spooky season the only way they know how: with a full-blown Fright Fest. From psychological slow-burns to international nightmares, they’ve handpicked a lineup that proves the best horror isn’t always found at the box office. Kristy kicks things off with The Rental — Dave Franco’s chilling home-invasion debut — and the unstoppable terror of Train to Busan, the South Korean zombie masterpiece that redefined the genre. She rounds things out with Oddity, a mind-bending Irish folk horror about loss, superstition, and one unforgettable wooden golem. Jeff brings his own twisted delights: the religious psychodrama Immaculate starring Sydney Sweeney, the Turkish descent-into-hell nightmare Baskin, and the criminally underrated Exorcist III, a late sequel that’s smarter, scarier, and far more unsettling than anyone remembers. Together, they dissect what makes horror so addictive — the tension, the catharsis, and the universal joy of being scared out of your mind. So dim the lights, grab your garlic popcorn, and stream these frightful favorites on Kanopy — if you dare. 💀 Real scares. Cult classics. Zero tuition required.
