The members of Outside The Frame are always talking about movies, but do they know how to make one?

To celebrate Mike’s birthday, Elijah, Maddy, Dalton, and the birthday boy himself are tasked with pitching a feature-length film from scratch, guided entirely by a series of prompts Mike has prepared for them. The result? Pour Souls—Outside The Frame’s very first film. Tune in to hear the chaos, creativity, and glorious casting decisions that bring it to life.

Elijah, Maddy, Mike, and Dalton took a trip to see David Robert Mitchell's long-awaited directorial return, The End of Oak Street, and discuss the many weird, fascinating, and extremely entertaining aspects of this movie. Afterwards, they discuss the recurring themes David Robert Mitchell infuses from his previous movies, especially the incredibly underappreciated Under The Silver Lake, which they dive into in deep detail (since seemingly no one else did in 2018).
