I can’t help it if I’m scarred from too many bad 1980s and 90s comic book movie adaptations that weren’t faithful to the source material. I know it shouldn’t matter. Especially if the movie was made in the 1940s, it’s directed by podcast-favorites Po... more

  • The Intro Matters

    I listened to Blow Up episode and after the introduction I immediately subscribed and gave you five stars. To describe Antonioni in 9 sentences without mentioning none of his movies nor his name takes a certain amount of knowledge of the filmmaker that only a cinephile could pull off. And adding humor to an Antonioni episode, I’m raising my hat! Well done gentlemen. A breathe of fresh air to hear a podcast and learn something in these drought of good film analysis. more

  • Richard III

    I like this podcast. It seems well informed. I like that there is no giggling or calling each other dude. But it is not stuffy and monotonous like some podcasts either. They seem well informed in film and literature and Shakespeare. Richard III was my first podcast though I’ve heard and enjoyed others. I recommend this podcast to film lovers. Having said that, being a History major I’m just going to nitpick just to educate. I commend them for their knowledge of the War of the Roses. It’s very co... more

  • Fun and thought provoking

    Random Acts of Cinema is best described by the opening line of each episode, “A podcast where two friends sit down and talk about random movies in the criterion collection”. One friend an art historian among other things and the other a director himself among other pursuits. I love hearing their exhaustive, humorous, and intellectual discussions on movies. I appreciate being able to learn about movies I will never watch just as much as learning about camera-work and directorial choices. Lots of ... more
