The Best of 2021
It’s that wonderful time of year again as we list our favorite movies released during 2021. Listen as we discuss the difficulties of moviegoing in the midst of a pandemic and the importance of escapism in our choices. The movies we talk about include feminine descents into madness, off-beat convention-challenging Westerns, and a ton of amazing debut features from directors to watch out for. Warning: Contains explicit language, mild spoilers, and family scategoaps… scapegoats.
Any films you think we should have included in our lists? Are there new filmmakers out there you think we should be looking at? How do you feel about seeing movies in the theaters given our current pandemic situation? Leave a comment and keep the conversation going.

The Trouble With Harry - Supplement
While we try to cover as much as we can in our episodes, there's always more to see, hear, and read about a movie that can enhance your viewing experience. If you enjoyed our episode on The Trouble With Harry, here's a few extra bits you might find interesting...
The Trouble With Harry
Noel Thingvall returns to the show as we grab some shovels and unearth one of Alfred Hitchcock's most unusual films, the strangely sweet black comedy The Trouble with Harry. Listen as we examine the title corpse's post-mortem career as a small town matchmaker, marvel at the film's clever dialogue and gorgeous autumnal location photography, and reveal the connection between Hitchcock and the 2002 thriller Phone Booth. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and a particularly sinister closet door.
