  • 247 - The Driver
    2025/06/29

    Tim and Jen ride along with a taciturn Ryan O'Neal for Walter Hill's sinuous neo-noir, The Driver!


    Walter Hill spoke with Deadline in 2024 about his influences, Tony Scott's idiot brother, and of course, westerns.


    Hill also talked about the controversy surrounding The Warriors in an interview for Esquire:

    I think the reason why there were some violent incidents is really very simple: The movie was very popular with the street gangs, especially young men, a lot of whom had very strong feelings about each other. And suddenly they all went to the movies together!

  • 246 - Heist
    2025/06/22

    Jen and Tim examine some D-tier David Mamet: the by-the-numbers heist flick, uh, Heist.


    Chris Person of the worker-owned tech news site Aftermath dug up the previously unavailable special Ricky Jay and His 52 Assistants in pristine broadcast resolution and made it available to the world once again. Read an interview with Person about the process and the importance of archiving conducted by David J. Roth and Dan McQuade of Defector, and watch the special at the Internet Archive. Fun fact: David Mamet directed the special!


    Person also wrote a rundown of the cutting edge of analog media archiving (as of mid-2024, anyway) that is extremely worth your time.

  • 245 - Casino Royale
    2025/05/29

    Tim and Jen suffer through a patchwork spy pastiche, Casino Royale.


    Errata: Jen attributed the anecdote about producer Charles K. Feldman removing the pay-offs to the jokes in the script to Joe McGrath, but it actually came from another director credited on the film, Val Guest.


    Speaking of, you can look through some of superagent-turned-producer Feldman's personal papers courtesy of AFI.


    Robert Von Dassanowsky's critical essay on Casino Royale just might be the final word on the film:

    "Casino Royale’s relationship to Bond is only emblematic; it is a prismatic translation of Fleming’s milieu, not a linear adaptation. And it remains, even today, a wry and provocative sociopolitical satire. The often criticized inconsistencies of the film’s multiple James Bonds, including the banal 007 of Terence Cooper, brought in to cover Sellers’s unfinished characterization, intentionally work to confuse the issue of Bond, to overwork the paradigm until it has no value. As Walter Benjamin in his influential essay “Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction” would have it, the original artwork, with its auratic value, has been replaced by accessible but worthless copies. Here, the most unique icon of the era is intentionally made common – a fashion, a fad, a façade: the multiple Bonds are all copies of a first copy, Connery’s Bond."
