Our most "normal" episode yet sees Sean get political, Anthony reading Norm of the North Fandom articles while Sean gets political, and some light discussion of the relevant films. Anxiety surrounding the intersection of labor, political economy and personal life is the bread and butter of Ermanno Olmi, occasionally called "the Italian Jacques Tati." But this is an AMERICAN style podcast with sloppy grits and butter pies on the side, so we watch In the Heat of the Night and El Norte, two films a...

Another heater this week as we nestle metaphorically in the hypothetical rolls of Orson Welles' big belly in heaven. I'm writing this the day Brian Wilson died, and I heard that he's playing Orson's titties like bongo drums to make beautiful music for Jesus while he sleeps. Almost makes you forget about the genocide in Gaza, eh? This season was incomplete without a Kurosawa, so we fix that. Throne of Blood is kind of an honorary Welles film too, because its based on Shakespeare and good. Jubilee...

Just noticing I misspelled Antoine Doinel's last name in the previous description. We really are set apart from the beasts by our capacity to learn, don't you think? A mistake is the most human thing of all, precisely because we can recognize it as such. Speaking of mistakes, Love on the Run concludes the 400 Blows-iverse with the correct message: there is nothing in life so beautiful that it isn't worth throwing away to smoke cigarettes and hook up with women who don't respect you. The White Sh...

Our quest to Unseat Citizen Kane as "the best one" surges onward! Francois Truffaut, illustrious director of The 400 Blows, steps up to the plate with two Legacy Sequels featuring that film's protagonist...but now, Antoine Donel is grown, and he's going to make the society that has imprisoned him feel every one of those 400 blows. He accomplishes this task through casual sex. This is typically how the French accomplish their tasks. But we're far from done with Orson Welles. In the coming weeks, ...

Anthony and Sean, The Gods of Cinema, return. And this season is all business. No more sandy beaches. No more Margaritas. No more mysterious tattoos of LatinX ""cuties."" We begin with our seminal review of Citizen Kane, and from now on every film we watch this season will have to measure up to it. Like Anubis weighing sinners' hearts against a feather, so shall we compare the value of each work to that which has been called "The Movie." Our definitive review of this definitive masterpiece lays ...

The Emperor Of Podcast Award Shows crawls from his tomb once again to mercilessly dictate the winners and losers of this season of Always See Everything. Witness in horror as The Trentie casts his dark glare over David Lynch, Wim Wenders, David Cronenberg, David Dekalog and many others as they quake in terror beneath the weight of his dark judgement. Anthony and Sean are mere pawns in his game, can only guess at his veiled intentions. They watch the tense muscles of his back as he climbs back in...

The soul-wrenching conclusion to our two-part barn-burner on late great experimental filmmaker Stan Brakhage. We manage to perfectly and flawlessly interpret the symbolic and aesthetic intention behind each and every one of his films. We get a Ouija board and the man himself confirms it, we were dead on every time. It's almost too easy for us, honestly.

We're hitting you with the second of our David Lynch series, complete with the 2-sean shell that brought you such hits as whatever the Samuel Fuller episode was called. We got Japanese Olympics, Vietnamese wars, and Normal freaks. Speaking of freaks, there's the Elephant Man too. Wow he's scary. The movie is basically about what if there was a monster so scary it made you want to scream. David Lynch's mind is too damn twisted for me sometimes.
