概要

Join Dave and Elise every week for a buggy-ride of cinematic exploration. A bilingual Montreal native and a Prairies hayseed gravitate to Toronto for the film culture, meet on OK Cupid, and spur on each other's movie-love, culminating in this podcast. Expect in-depth discussion of our old favourites (mostly studio-era Hollywood) and our latest frontiers. We like to bring attention to neglected figures and dig into little-known corners of film history and popular culture, and we hope that we can also bring new perspectives to the familiar. The podcast will be comprised of several potentially never-ending series: - Fear & Moviegoing in Toronto: Our Perspectives on Choice Local Retrospectives (PAUSED BY PANDEMIC) - Hollywood Studios – Year by Year: Deep-cut dishing on Paramount, MGM, Warner Brothers, RKO, Fox, and Universal items from 1930 to 1948. - Acteurist oeuvre-views/spotlights on worthy on-camera creatives, beginning with Jennifer Jones and Setsuko Hara. - And a big parade of special subjects hand-chosen by whichever of your hosts happens to have a handle on this buggy that week Finally, this feed also serves as an archive for a wide variety of shows we've been doing since 2014, including: - Another Kind of Distance: A Time Travel Film Podcast - We're Not Gonna Talk About Judy: A Twin Peaks The Return Podcast - Red Time For Bonzo: A Marxist-Reaganist Ronald Reagan Filmography Podcast (this one is Dave with his friends Romy and Gareth) - And comics 'casts discussing the works of Grant Morrison, Wolfman and Perez's New Teen Titans, Gerry Conway's Amazing-Spider-Man, and Mishkin, Cohn and Colon's Amethyst Limited SeriesCopy Us, Please!! アート 哲学 社会科学

  • Hollywood Studios Year-by-Year - Fox Film Corporation – 1934: CHANGE OF HEART & MARIE GALANTE
    2026/05/08

    For this round of Fox Studios 1934 we watched Change of Heart (directed by John G. Blystone), Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell's final pairing, co-starring with James Dunn and a brink-of-stardom Ginger Rogers as college friends in unrequited love configurations; and Marie Galante (directed by Henry King), from source material by Jacques Duval best known as the basis for Kurt Weill's songs for the stage musical version, with young French actress Ketti Gallian paired with a visibly perplexed Spencer Tracy. The latter lacks atmosphere and the former lacks story, but we find lots to like/talk about in the performances.

    0h 00m 25s: 1934 & Fox Film Corporation

  • Acteurist Spotlight – Isabelle Huppert – Part 1: LOULOU (1980) and COUP DE TORCHON (1981)
    2026/05/01

    For our first Isabelle Huppert Acteurist Spotlight episode, we watched Maurice Pialat's Loulou (1980), in which Huppert stars with Gérard Depardieu, and Bertrand Tervanier's Coup de Torchon (1981), in which she supports Philippe Noiret in a transposition of Jim Thompson's Pop. 1280 to French West Africa. We discuss our first impressions of these two late 20th century French auteurs, the cross-class romance and punk ethos of Loulou, and Huppert's venture into broad black comedy in Coup de Torchon, playing a pragmatist whose gradual awakening to the moral dimension of life is occasioned by her lover's descent into moral insanity.

    Time Codes:

    0h 00m 25s: Intro. Isabelle Huppert

    0h 05m 01s: LOULOU (1980) [dir. Maurice Pialat]

    0h 33m 43s: COUP DE TORCHON aka CLEAN SLATE (1981) [dir. Bertrand Tavernier]

  • Hollywood Studios Year-by-Year – Warner Brothers – 1934: I AM A THIEF & I'VE GOT YOUR NUMBER
    2026/04/24

    On this week's Warner Bros. 1934 Studios Year by Year episode, we look at some of the studio's mid-30s B-output: the jazzy, Modernist, montage-ist, telephonic I've Got Your Number, starring Pat O'Brien as an insouciant and sometimes insolent Everyman (in a comedy team-up we never knew we needed with fuming mentor Eugene Pallette) whose redemption arc is sparked by beleaguered working girl Joan Blondell; and I Am a Thief, with Mary Astor and Ricardo Cortez playing hot potato with the title's claim. Do either of these films qualify as "termite art"? Do both? Listen and learn!

    Time Codes:

    0h 00m 25s: 1934 & Warner Brothers

    0h 03m 17s: I'VE GOT YOUR NUMBER [dir. Ray Enright]
