Episode 63: Only Lovers Left Alive (2013)

It’s Easter! The world has the children down. Drusilla takes a date to Forest Lawn Cemetery because of The Loved One. It’s a country club for dead people.  Drusilla watched Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. They play down the homosexuality so much! She also watched Martin Scorsese’s Mean Streets for the first time. Josh did a mini marathon of movies from 1980: Cruising, which brought out his internalized homophobia, and then they go on a Brian De Palma Dressed to Kill rant. Josh also watched The Fog, one of John Carpenter’s best films. 

 From wiki: “ Only Lovers Left Alive is a 2013 fantasy comedy-drama film written and directed by Jim Jarmusch, starring Tilda Swinton, Tom Hiddleston, Mia Wasikowska, Anton Yelchin, Jeffrey Wright, Slimane Dazi and John Hurt. An international co-production of the United Kingdom and Germany, the film focuses on the romance between two vampires, and was nominated for the Palme d'Or at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival.

In 2016, the film was ranked among the BBC's 100 Greatest Films of the 21st Century by 177 critics around the world.[5] In late 2019, it was named the fourth greatest film of the 2010s by The Hollywood Reporter's chief film critic Todd McCarthy.[6]
