April 26, 2024 08:00 - 1 hour - 85 MB

Food glorious food! 2023 Cannes Charmer THE TASTE OF THINGS has made its way to digital release and so we put our napkins in collars and dig into the sumptuous feast from Tran Anh Hung. We also look back to an earlier food movie, 1987 Un Certain Regard title BABETTE'S FEAST from Gabriel Axel. Our relationship to food on film, what we can learn about a character from how they eat and how they cook, and the nature of art and pleasure, we get into all of it. Plus, up top we have a look at the r...

This week on the podcast we cover Hometown Prison, directed by Richard Linklater. This is episode 1 of God Save Texas, a documentary TV series that premiered at this year's Sundance.

Too Early(ish) Cannes Predictions

March 08, 2024 04:28 - 1 hour - 61.9 MB

The time has come around again for us to take an early look at what this year's Cannes competition might look like. It may not feel quite so early anymore as the trades scramble to catch up with us, but nonetheless Jesse has put together another barely informed set of potential entrants from which her co-hosts will crown an early Palme d'Or favorite. Do we think Terrence Malick will finally release a new film? Do we expect Neon to continue their streak? Will our listeners send us twenty doll...

The Cannes I Kick It? Matchmaker Extravaganza

February 16, 2024 06:00 - 1 hour - 81.9 MB

For TOO LONG, Valentine's Day has been focused on a narrow, and dare we say, Hallmark Approved, definition of Romantic Love. Well, we here at Cannes I Kick It have some questions about that. What about the steady love of friendship? Or the love that forms from the artistic collaboration between director and actor? Or the most unique love of all, the love between a distributor and a festival title it has acquired? We are here to investigate these questions with a series of games designed to p...

The She Came To Me-Tacular

December 22, 2023 04:46 - 1 hour - 84.9 MB

A Tacular comes but once a year, and what a year it has been. We've Taculared non festival films (Mank once or twice) and Cannes premieres (France and The French Dispatch), but never before has a trailer so solidified the need for a Tacular. And this Tacular comes to us all the way from the opening night of Berlin. Rebecca Miller's She Came to Me is the subject. Our many thought and some thoughts from our listeners is the meat of the thing. Enjoy the She Came to Me-Tacular! Thank you for ano...

Maestro’s Music with Fran Hoepfner

October 27, 2023 04:01 - 1 hour - 85.8 MB

Leonard Bernstein is one of the most important musical figures of the 20th century. He is also the Maestro, as explored in the upcoming film MAESTRO, directed by noted weird guy Bradley Cooper. We wanted some more context before MAESTRO makes its way across America, so we turned to America's preeminent MAESTRO authority, FRAN HOEPFNER! Together we do some light previewing of the film, and dig into a range of Bernstein's composing works: ON THE TOWN, SYMPHONY NO. 2: AGE OF ANXIETY, ON THE WAT...

October 13, 2023 08:00 - 1 hour - 71.5 MB

NYFF is close to wrapping up, so we've gotten a good idea of how New York has reacted to all sorts of things. We discuss that, the rest of the fall festival landscape, some AFI odds and ends, and then turn to look at an earlier work from JANET PLANET director ANNIE BAKER, her 2017 play THE ANTIPODES. We discuss the world Baker creates in the play, where it departs from her earlier work, and what we find so compelling about her as an artist. Our twitter is @CannesIKickIt Our instagram is @C...

New York Film Festival Opening Night Jury with David Sims

August 25, 2023 04:08 - 1 hour - 129 MB

Cannes Blockbusters are not the only unjuried film festival slate in the world. So having exhausted this avenue, we turn to New York Film Festival, famously uncompetitive, to inject a little competition and conflict into their whole affair. The slate? Films that played in the opening slot of NYFF in the new millennium so far. Returning to join us as President of our Jury? The great DAVID SIMS of BLANK CHECK with Griffin and David. Together we figure out what it is About Schmidt, how to split...

July 14, 2023 05:03 - 2 hours - 123 MB

We are making amends. Last month we released a great episode on Frankie (2019) with guest Chris Feil, which you should listen to if you have not, but a rogue social media post led many of our listeners to believe we would be releasing an episode about Frank (2014).
