  • Naked Lunch (David Cronenberg 1991) w/ Josh Cooley

    Naked Lunch (David Cronenberg 1991) w/ Josh Cooley
    Jun 3 2024
    Felicia is joined by Josh Cooley to discuss David Cronenberg’s otherworldly adaptation of William S. Burrough’s Naked Lunch (1991). We chat about the way Cronenberg took Burrough’s story and put it into his own perfectly crafted world, and how he was able to succeed at adapting a difficult novel. This is the Cronenberg series opener and it’s been a long time coming. I honestly cannot put into words how important Cronenberg is to me, his work is everything to me and the world would be a much sadder place without his art. I hope you follow along for the series.

  • Before Sunrise (Richard Linklater 1995) w/ Erin & Tom from Baby’s First Watchlist Podcast

    Before Sunrise (Richard Linklater 1995) w/ Erin & Tom from Baby’s First Watchlist Podcast
    Jun 1 2024
    It’s bonus episode time. In today’s Special Features episode Felicia is joined by Erin and Tom from the Baby’s First Watchlist Podcast to discuss one of cinema’s greatest romance films Before Sunrise (Richard Linklater 1995). We chat about how fresh this film feels nearly thirty years later, and although it is heavy in dialogue, the quiet moments reveal the most about Celine and Jesse.

  • My Night at Maud’s (Éric Rohmer 1970) w/ Calvin Kemph

    My Night at Maud’s (Éric Rohmer 1970) w/ Calvin Kemph
    May 27 2024
    Felicia is joined by Calvin Kemph to discuss Catholic guilt and philosophy through the character’s in My Night at Maud’s (Éric Rohmer 1970). We chat about how important it is that this film was shot in black and white and how this story could also fit within his tale of four season series. This marks the end of the Rohmer series, one that I felt such a great delight in putting together and had some of the best conversations on the show so far. I hope you’re inspired to tackle the rest of his filmography because I truly believe there is a Rohmer film out there for everybody.
