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.

Welcome back friends, we're still existing in 1997. This week, we take a look at the globetrotting Mimi Leder joint The Peacemaker. Unfortunately, John Cena is nowhere to be found—or maybe we just can't see him. This week, Dalton gives us a very brief rundown on the Yugoslav wars, we examine the narrative idea of creating sympathetic villains, the professional dynamics based around gender that arise in the movie are also discussed, and much more hits the analysis table. So, grab your fatigues and fall in line as we take The Peacemaker into conversation.
