A movie analysis show looking at your favorite cult and genre films from across cinema history. Each week, Dustin, Arthur, and Dalton try to apply academic rigor and critical analysis to the films you wouldn’t talk about in a film studies class while having a few laughs along the way. It’s the conversations you have in the lobby of the multiplex with a little more room to breathe, and the occasional footnote. Stay tuned to the feed for bonus episodes on new releases.

Ep. 437: The Nice Guys (2016)
Friday Dec 17, 2021
Friday Dec 17, 2021
Our Buddy marathon continues with a Shane Black Christmas event as we take on the 2016 semi-cult classic, The Nice Guys. This noir flavored buddy picture places Russel Crowe and Ryan Gosling together. But, does it work? We revisit our discussions of Shane Black's scripting from last week, and evaluate The Nice Guys as a re-evaluated version of that story. We talk about women, sex, violence, and formalism as we take this one to the analysis table. Join us now!
