  • Enjoyed the grounded guests takes

    I enjoyed that the episode on the documentary, "An Unknown Compelling Force," featured guests grounded in actual physics and mountaineering. Keep up the good work!

  • Great discussion, great films...but intrusive ads

    This show is a treat, host Chris Stachiw talks about a wide range of films and he has wonderful guests such as Mike White (The Projection Booth) and Father Malone (Midnight Viewing). Chris' is open to a films' merits and his guests opinion even when he himself doesn't like the film under discussion. And the show is a lot of fun and has introduced me to a lot of films.

    That being said, the ads are very intrusive, they seem to come up randomly (sometimes in the middle of sentence) and its the sa... more

  • A Fast Favorite

    The first time I heard Chris’s voice it scared me. It reminded me of every intellectual bully that talks with authority. But after a few episodes I’m addicted to his insights and the thoughtful attention he gives most of his subjects and his delivery just reinforces his passions. He has great banter with his co-hosts and often delves into topics I hadn’t considered on films I’ve lived with for years. His episode choices are both deep and light so you can pick an episode for what ever mood you’re... more

"You need to take it down a notch!"
Q: What is your backstory with Dinner in America?
I first discovered it when John Waters put it on his 10 best films of 2020 list.
Magnum Force
Q: What do you think of Magnum Force?
I think the story is good but it meanders too much and there are too many extraneous elements.

It is both; this movie captures the contradiction of warfare.
The Brutalist

He disappears in this role. It doesn't feel like this is Adrian Brody as Laszlo Toth. It feels like this is Laszlo Toth.
The Brutalist
Q: What did you think of The Brutalist?
It's a rare movie where I can watch it and feel like I'm watching an adaptation of a book that doesn't exist.
