A Fistful of Dollars • The Next Reel

Spaghetti Westerns didn't completely begin with Sergio Leone's 1964 film "A Fistful of Dollars," but his film certainly set a new bar — and created an international audience — for these films. This film revitalized a genre that had been slowly dying by getting rid of the black hat/white hat type of story that instead focused on characters who had a lot more gray in them. And this film is really the film that set Leone on his way to making the types of films he'd continue making throughout his career. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we start our Man With No Name Trilogy series with a conversation about "A Fistful of Dollars." We talk about how this film changed westerns and what its European sensibilities brought to the film that those in the US latched onto. We discuss Clint Eastwood and why he got involved in the film, and look at what he brought to his role as Joe. We chat about the other cast and how they hold up with Eastwood. We discuss the interesting cinematography that in so many ways came to define Leone's style, as well as the standard practice at the time in Italy of post-syncing all of their audio which leads to all of the actors feeling slightly out of sync. And we talk about the violence in the film and discuss how people felt about it at the time along with how it ended up influencing films to follow. It's a great start to Leone's unofficial (but well-marketed) trilogy and we have a blast talking about it. Tune in! Hey! You know what would be awesome?

12 Monkeys • The Next Reel

Terry Gilliam has said that 'The Fisher King' and 'Twelve Monkeys' were two of the easiest films for him to make. Perhaps that's because he found the right way to work in the studio system, perhaps it's because he found the right people to work with, perhaps it's because he wasn't working with his own scripts. It's hard to say why that is, but they certainly proved successful at the box office, showing that Gilliam wasn't box office poison and allowing him to continue his career. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we conclude our Terry Gilliam series with his 1995 film 'Twelve Monkeys.' We talk about what Gilliam did between 'The Fisher King' and this film and why he latched onto this film. We discuss the nature of the story and how it works for us now — is it a film we love or a film that ends up being forgotten not long after rewatching it. We chat about the three main actors — Bruce Willis, Madeline Stowe and Brad Pitt — and what they each bring to the table, as well as some of the fantastic supporting cast. We cover the nature of time travel and debate whether this film's rules really work, or if that matters as long as the rules apply within the film itself. And we chat about Terry Gilliam and what we've learned about him over the course of this series. It's a great way to finish up — tune in! Hey! You know what would be awesome? If you would drop us a positive rating on iTunes!

The Fisher King • The Next Reel

After the financial disaster that was 'The Adventures of Baron Munchausen,' Terry Gilliam needed a way to prove to the studio brass that he could make a great movie that was on budget and made money at the box office. He found it in 'The Fisher King,' the film he made and released in 1991. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we continue our Terry Gilliam series with the fantastic 'The Fisher King.' We talk about why this film works so well for us, even if Roger Ebert clearly didn't click with it. We discuss the brilliant 4 leads in the film — Jeff Bridges, Robin Williams, Mercedes Ruehl and Amanda Plummer — and look at what each of them bring to their own roles that make them work so well. We chat about the brilliance of Richard LaGravenese's script and how honest he portrays the characters yet how efficient the script is as well, giving full portrayals of characters even for minor characters (like the brilliant Michael Jeter). And we cover how this film succeeded at the box office and even gathered a handful of Oscar nominations, showing people that Gilliam can make films that make money. It's a wonderful film that we have a great time talking about. Tune in! Hey! You know what would be awesome? If you would drop us a positive rating on iTunes!

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen • The Next Reel

After the battle that Terry Gilliam had to endure to release 'Brazil,' it's a shame that his next movie ended up being another debacle. From producer problems to studio exec switcheroos to plain old bad luck, 'The Adventures of Baron Munchausen' was a tough film to get made. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we continue our Terry Gilliam series with this beautiful but troubled film. We talk about what works in the film and what doesn't work in the film, and what likely were the real problems that didn't help the movie ever find its audience at the time. We chat about the brilliant actors all through the film — including young roles for Uma Thurman and Sarah Polley, as well as a deliciously funny Oliver Reed — and what they brought to the table. We discuss the problems this film had in getting made and yet really only scratch the surface. We talk about how the film did financially and contemplate how it ended up being the lowest grossing film on our list of films we've discussed. And we look at how the film works for us while looking also at how it works for children and wonder if perhaps this film will always be better when first seen through the eyes of a child. It's a fun film that's stunning to look at but full of story problems all the way through, but that doesn't stop us from having a great time talking about it. Tune in! Hey!

Brazil • The Next Reel

Terry Gilliam has always been an ambitious director with wild visions for his films. Sometimes that’s worked out, sometimes it hasn’t. In the case of the follow-up to his successful film Time Bandits, Brazil didn’t work out, at least at the time. Gilliam had a very public battle with Sid Sheinberg, the president and CEO of MCA-Universal at the time, who didn’t want to release Gilliam’s film as it was presented to him. It wasn’t until 1996 when Gilliam’s director’s cut was finally released, but people could tell long before that there was a great film here. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue our Terry Gilliam series with Andy’s favorite movie, Brazil. We talk about the battle in more depth and how it helped and hurt the film. We chat about why Andy likes it so much and look at what Gilliam is doing in this film that does make it stand out as a great film. We touch on the various versions of the film available and what their differences are. We discuss the nature of dreams vs. reality, of bureaucracy and technology, and the importance of ducts among other things. And we chat about many of the talented people both in front of and behind the cameras. It’s a fantastic film that definitely warrants conversation, so check it out and tune in! Hey! You know what would be awesome? If you would drop us a positive rating on iTunes!

Time Bandits • The Next Reel

Getting out from under the shadow of Monty Python proved difficult for Terry Gilliam early in his solo career — no one in America would finance any films for him — so while he waited to get his big movie, "Brazil," off the ground, he wrote a script for an idea he'd been kicking around that would appeal to the whole family. "Time Bandits" proved to be a box office success and still is one of Gilliam's most profitable movies, allowing him to make "Brazil" immediately afterward and continue in the business. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we dig into his 1981 film. We talk about how this film struck us at an early age and how we find it now, thrilled that Gilliam made a children's film that didn't need to gloss anything over for kids but kept it raw and edgy. We chat about the slew of actors running all through it — from the brilliance of the kid and six dwarfs in the titular roles to all the fantastic cameos and bit parts scattered through it (and, of course, most notably the brilliant David Warner playing Evil in the best way possible). We discuss the theological views of the story and how these views don't really affect the film, which can be viewed as simply a children's film still. And we look at the amazing world building done by Gilliam in this film and how he couldn't have done it without the help of his brilliant costume designer, production designer and art director. It's a film that holds up incredibly well for us and holds a special place in our hearts. We have a great chat about it, so check it out and tune in! Hey! You know what would be awesome?

Knowing • The Next Reel

Considering how much critics and audiences seem to hate Alex Proyas' 2009 film Knowing, it's surprising that it actually did fairly well at the box office. We don't know if that's proof that people actually like it, but it was hated enough that Andy felt it was appropriate to call it a guilty pleasure of his. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we finish up our short and fun Guilty Pleasure Series with Proyas' Knowing. Andy talks about why he loves it so much, and Pete talks about what he likes about it while pointing out all the problems he has with it. We debate the merits of what it's trying to do with what is actually presented to us. We chat about the stunning visual effects work, particularly the plane crash, how they went about creating it and why. We discuss the performances, primarily Nicolas Cage's and Rose Byrne's, and how they work for us (if at all). And we look at the importance of scope in the film — does a payoff need to be sized to its setup? It's a great conversation about a much maligned film. Andy's not sure he won Pete over but it's still one that Andy holds dear. Check it out, tune in, then let us know what you think! Hey! You know what would be awesome?

The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension • The Next Reel

As someone once said, cult films aren't born, they're chosen. The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension failed at the box office, but the film was just quirky enough to find that fan base and get propelled into cult status. While the film didn't do well enough to warrant a sequel, it did find a big fan in Pete. Join us — Andy Nelson and Pete Wright — as we begin our short (but hopefully fun) Guilty Pleasure Series with Buckaroo Banzai. Pete talks about why this film is a guilty pleasure for him and Andy admits that, while never having seen the film before, it's one that he could find himself really enjoying given a few more watches. We chat about the world building that the filmmakers infused this film with and find big and obscure films with which to compare its world building. We discuss the actors from top to bottom and how they all infuse the film with great energy, helping to create this world that feels fully formed, even if the script is a bit convoluted. We talk about how the film was received and how it became a cult favorite. And, inevitably, we spill out a few quotes from the film because, well, it's full of them. We have a great time talking about Pete's guilty pleasure this week so check it out! Hey! You know what would be awesome? If you would drop us a positive rating on iTunes!

Atlantic City • The Next Reel

It’s time to draw the curtains on our 1981 series with another Louis Malle film, Atlantic City. While technically made in 1979 and released in Canada and France in 1980, this film wasn’t released in the US until April 1981. Because of that, however, it does feel like a film from the 70s to us, like many films in our series ended up doing. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we discuss Malle’s second film to be released in 1981 in the US. We talk about how the film worked for us — Andy really loved it this go-around, latching on to the characters, the story and the sadness of it all while Pete enjoyed the supporting characters more than the leads and overall felt it dull. We chat about how the film came to be and who else was considered for the parts. We talk about the performances of Burt Lancaster and Susan Sarandon, and how they work for us, again splitting our opinion. And we examine how timely this film fits into the changing scenery in the real Atlantic City at the time, constant demolition and construction as the city became an East Coast gambling hub. Its a fascinating film that we don’t see eye to eye on, but one that is definitely worth talking about. Tune in! Hey! You know what would be awesome? If you would drop us a positive rating on iTunes!

Gallipoli • The Next Reel

The late 70s and early 80s were a great time for Australian cinema. The filmmakers churned out lots of great (and cheap) movies and these movies helped create a resurgence of Australian films on the world cinematic stage. Peter Weir was one of these filmmakers, and his 1981 film Gallipoli really helped this resurgence with its story of friendship and the loss of innocence in times of war. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we continue our 1981 series with Weir’s Gallipoli. We talk about the horrors of this battle in Turkey, who fought it and how this film portrays the war. We discuss the odd structure of the film as it focuses primarily on character and less on the war, and why that works, but also why it makes the first half of the film lag a bit. We chat about Mel Gibson and Mark Lee, how they work as actors in this film, and why we like their portrayals. And we touch on how this film’s popularity did help boost it and other Australian films up onto the world stage. It’s a powerful film, even if it’s not something we feel like we’d find ourselves returning to very often. Still. well worth looking at. Tune in! Hey! You know what would be awesome?
