That reminds me of...

Baron and The Doc review the final film in the Dark Thriller pack at MIFF 68.5 - The Killing Of Two Lovers, directed by Robert Machoin, starring Clayne Crawford.

Baron and The Doc review another film, that is part of MIFF 68.5 - La Llorona, directed by Jayro Bustamente.

Baron and The Doc review their second MIFF film - Rose Plays Julie, directed by Christine Molly and Joe Lawlor, and starring Aiden Gillen (aka Little Finger), Ann Skelly and Orla Brady.

Minutes after watching it live, Baron and the Doc discuss the opening night film of the Melbourne International Film Festival 68½, 'First Cow'. Directed by Kelly Reichardt, loosely based on a book by Jonathan Raymond, and starring John Magaro and Orion Lee. This is the first video episode to go along with audio - you can watch and listen to Baron and the Doc dig into the first film of the festival, find out what they thought of it and what it reminded them of.

Speaking of pandemics, in this episode Baron and the Doc take a journey into the mind of Casey Affleck and his post-plague film 'Light Of My Life'. It reminded Baron of 'Room' and Doc of 'You Were Never Really Here', and sparked a virtual tennis match of other references that you won't want to miss!

Always innovative, Baron and the Doc mix things up with an episode devoted to filling gaps in their film knowledge. Doc caught up on Us, Aliens and Spike Lee's Oldboy. Baron finally watched Antichrist and Rope, and then took the easy option with French short C'était un rendez-vous.

Baron and Da Doc dig into Spike Lee's latest joint, Da 5 Bloods, with Delroy Lindo, Chadwick Boseman and Jean Reno, amongst the players. They are reminded of other films about war, brotherhood, and greed, but also just how uniquely 'Spike Lee' Spike Lee's films are. Listen in for all this and plenty of spoilers in episode 6. If you haven't seen Da 5 Bloods yet, you can find it streaming on Netflix now.

In their longest episode yet, the Doc and Baron discuss Robert Eggers' surreal horror film, The Lighthouse, starring Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson.  There is too much to talk about in this divisive, black and white, disturbing film, but they give it a red hot go, covering topics such as ancient mythology, wanky student films by filmmakers who want to look smarter than they are, mermaid wet dreams, the Doc's iso fitness regime, and of course... what all these things, and the film itself, reminds them of.

Baron comes straight out this episode and calls 1917, by Sam Mendes, a ‘cracker of a film’.  Doc agrees, but still confuses Sam Mendes with Sam Raimi. Join our heroes as they reel off a record eight films that 1917 reminded them of. Some may surprise you!

Bad Boys For Life is not in fact the fourth Bad Boys film, nor is it directed by Michael Bay. Will Baron get any of the details of this film right? Will Doc come to respect Michael Bay? Find out what Doc and Baron think about the third instalment in the Bad Boys franchise and, more importantly, what this film reminds them of.
