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.

Grab your mom's spaghetti and get ready, we're heading to the 313 to talk the 'not a biopic' biopic of Marshall Mathers, 8 Mile. This 2002 musical drama was heavily influenced by the rappers career and sees Eminem take the leading role. In an era that saw the rise in mainstream popularity of rap battles, 8 Mile was the forerunner. We breakdown its popularity, its approach to storytelling, the poor ways it has aged, and much more in this week's show. So, join us at the analysis table as we walk through 8 Mile.
