Zuck Dynasty, Pt. 2 — The Social Reckoning
October 27, 2026 · 1 hr 2 minA few weeks out from The Social Reckoning’’s tepid theatrical debut, it’s safe to say Aaron Sorkin’s “spiritual sequel” to 2010’s The Social Network won’t match its successor’s box-office success, nor is it likely to be as fondly…

Zuck Dynasty, Pt. 1 — The Social Network
October 20, 2026 · 1 hr 6 minAaron Sorkin has said his new The Social Reckoning is not a sequel so much as a companion piece to David Fincher’s The Social Network, which Sorkin also scripted. Whatever you call it, though, these two films are undeniably linked, not…

Trial By Media, Pt. 2 — Primetime
October 13, 2026 · 1 hr 1 minPrimetime is a far-from-straightforward take on a true story, using the mid-aughts TV phenomenon To Catch a Predator and especially its host, Chris Hansen, for a darkly comic exploration of the morally murky place where ambition and…

Trial By Media, Pt. 1 — Sweet Smell of Success
October 6, 2026 · 1 hr 3 minLance Oppenheim’s Primetime paints problematic TV phenomenon To Catch a Predator — and especially its host, Chris Hansen — as an enterprise fueled by ambition, amorality, and a tenuous grasp of journalistic ethics. Those qualities put us…

Hazard Pay, Pt. 2 — The Weight
October 1, 2026 · 1 hr 17 minThere’s a lot to enjoy about The Weight: the tactile 1930s Oregon setting, strong performances from Ethan Hawke and Russell Crowe, a premise that allows for multiple suspense sequences. But Padraic McKinley’s directorial debut is arguably…

Hazard Pay, Pt. 1 — Sorcerer
September 22, 2026 · 1 hr 4 minPadraic McKinley’s The Weight isn’t a remake ofThe Wages of Fear, though it feels deeply indebted to the H.G. Clouzot classic in its thrilling depiction of a group of outlaws on a near-impossible mission across deadly terrain. William…

Existential Zones, Pt. 2 — It Ends
September 15, 2026 · 1 hr 3 minAlexander Ullom's It Ends is a daring little piece of microbudget drama about four friends at transition points in their lives, who find themselves in a place where life and death no longer hold any meaning. Whether it’s a film about…

#539: Existential Zones, Pt. 1 — Solaris (1972)
September 8, 2026 · 1 hr 8 minAlexander Ullom’s feature debut, It Ends, has been billed as a horror movie, but it’s more of an existential exercise wrapped inside a genre premise. That same description could be applied to Solaris, though Andrei Tarkovsky’s 1972…

The Family That’s Prey Together, Pt. 2 — The End of Oak Street
September 1, 2026 · 1 hr 2 minThe Platt family is barely surviving, and that’s before their neighborhood is inexplicably dropped millions of years into the past and overrun by hungry dinosaurs. The End of Oak Street isn’t nearly as concerned with explaining that…

The Family That's Prey Together, Pt. 1 — War of the Worlds (2005)
August 25, 2026 · 1 hr 5 minDavid Robert Mitchell’s The End of Oak Street drops an ordinary family into extraordinary circumstances, forcing them to focus all their energy on surviving— and maybe, just maybe, learning to understand each other along the way. That…

Anyone Can Cook, Pt. 2 — Tony
August 18, 2026 · 1 hr 18 minMatt Johnson’s new biopic Tony sidesteps the infamous Walk Hard trap by narrowing its scope to a single summer that would end up shaping the rest of Anthony Bourdain’s life, but not necessarily defining it. Whether that approach is…

#535: Anyone Can Cook, Pt. 1 — Ratatouille
August 11, 2026 · 1 hr 15 minAnthony Bourdain, whose early experience working in a restaurant kitchen is chronicled in the new biopic Tony, once singled out Ratatouille as Hollywood’s best depiction of working in a restaurant kitchen, which is all the invitation we…

Episodes take a deep dive into a classic film and its legacy, then compare and contrast that film with a modern successor. Hosted and produced by Genevieve Koski, Keith Phipps, Tasha Robinson, and Scott Tobias.
