September 4, 2026 · 1 hr 29 min

One of the great newspaper movies, a great NYC location movie, a great set-dressing movie, a great acting movie...on and on. The Paper deserves more recognition; it's aged particularly well as a love letter to and from a very particular…

About the show

Proudly independent and ad-free since 2018, the [ indistinct chatter ] podcast (formerly Full Cast and Crew Podcast) stands out in a crowded field by focusing on emotional reactions to films as much as it shares the entertaining anecdotes behind their making and seeks to place movies in context with our shared experiences as filmgoers coming of age in the 70s, 80s, and beyond.
