Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991)
This week's Prestige podcast skirts the edge of what you can reasonably claim to be "prestige",Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. That’s right, Kevin Costner battles Alan Rickman and an English accent with the help of Morgan Freeman in this film that can’t decide if it wants to be a grim and gritty retelling or a campy romp through the classic legend.

Fargo (1996)
Ah jeeze, for prestige this week we’re talking Fargo. Now that’s the 1996 cinematic version doncha know. Though of course, we also end up talking about the FX Series, too. We love Coen brothers movies in general and this one in particular.Check out https://support.baldmove.com/ to find out how you can gain access to ALL of our premium content, as well as ad-free versions of the podcasts, for just $5 a month!Join the discussion: Email | Discord | Reddit | ForumsFollow us: Twitch | YouTube | Twitter | Instagram | FacebookLeave Us A Review on Apple Podcasts Learn more about your ad choices.

Witness (1985)
Today we’ve got Witness, the 1985 Harrison Ford-led visual guide to becoming Amish. In truth, it’s a romance film clad in suspenders, a milking hat, and the trappings of a noir thriller. The podcast was a lot of fun to record and hopefully just as much fun to listen to, especially if you want to hear about A.Ron's father’s irrational dread of grain entrapment.Check out https://support.baldmove.com/ to find out how you can gain access to ALL of our premium content, as well as ad-free versions of the podcasts, for just $5 a month!Join the discussion: Email | Discord | Reddit | ForumsFollow us: Twitch | YouTube | Twitter | Instagram | FacebookLeave Us A Review on Apple Podcasts Learn more about your ad choices.

The French Connection (1971)
The French Connection, starring Gene Hackman as a narcotics officer playing a hunch to stop an international drug buy, is a classic for its kinetic chase scenes, not necessarily for its well-realized characters or compelling plot. Join us for the podcast to find out how it holds up over 50 years after its release.Check out https://support.baldmove.com/ to find out how you can gain access to ALL of our premium content, as well as ad-free versions of the podcasts, for just $5 a month!Join the discussion: Email | Discord | Reddit | ForumsFollow us: Twitch | YouTube | Twitter | Instagram | FacebookLeave Us A Review on Apple Podcasts Learn more about your ad choices.

Rocketman (2019)
Time for another biopic! This time it's Taron Egerton doing a nearly-perfect Elton John. We don't quite agree on how much fun the movie is but it's certainly not the fault of the excellent cast.Check out https://support.baldmove.com/ to find out how you can gain access to ALL of our premium content, as well as ad-free versions of the podcasts, for just $5 a month!Join the discussion: Email | Discord | Reddit | ForumsFollow us: Twitch | YouTube | Twitter | Instagram | FacebookLeave Us A Review on Apple Podcasts Learn more about your ad choices.

Moonlight (2016)
Moonlight is a simple movie about a simple tale of an incredibly complex time in a young boy's life. It won several Academy awards the year it was released and, we think, for good reason. Join us for a discussion of the merits of this movie, as well as how a tale about a young gay black man can resonate far outside of the shared experience.Check out https://support.baldmove.com/ to find out how you can gain access to ALL of our premium content, as well as ad-free versions of the podcasts, for just $5 a month!Join the discussion: Email | Discord | Reddit | ForumsFollow us: Twitch | YouTube | Twitter | Instagram | FacebookLeave Us A Review on Apple Podcasts Learn more about your ad choices.

True Romance (1993)
This week we’ve got a special treat thanks to our commissioner, Dena. It’s one of the handful of movies that Quentin Tarantino wrote, but didn’t direct. What do Tarantino’s unique sensibilities look like when filtered through another director?
