Peculiar Picture Show500 Days of Summer: A Deconstruction of the Manic Pixie Dream Girl
Intro by Maria
In this episode, Brandon and I discuss the 2009 film 500 Days of Summer. Here’s what that movie is about: Tom, a young guy who is obsessed with falling in love, “falls in love” (and I’m doing air quotes) with Summer. The film follows the 500 days of Tom being “in love”—again, air quotes—with Summer.
During that time, Tom wants nothing more than a true relationship with Summer, even though Summer from the start tells him she doesn’t want a relationship. When they break up, Tom is in shambles, especially after he finds out...2022-02-0500 min

Peculiar Picture ShowLady Bird: A Millennial Coming-of-Age Story
Intro by Brandon
Lady Bird is probably one of my favorite movies. It’s a Millennial coming of age story, and it’s written and directed by a real Millennial—something we haven’t seen in a lot of similar stories. As such, there are a lot of personal touches in the film that a lot of us Millennials dealt with growing up that are hard to describe but, oddly, easy to relate to. Couple that with some smart humor and you’ve got a pretty amazing film.
The plot follows Christine McPherson, or Lady Bird, as s...2021-12-1100 min
Peculiar Picture ShowJoker: Why So Seriously Wrong on Mental Illness?
Intro by Maria
The Joker is one of the most recognizable comic supervillains of all time. Even if you’re not a fan, you know who he is, so I guess it’s no surprise that this iconic character has had a variety of portrayals throughout the years.
In 2019, the film Joker was released, this time played by Joaquin Phoenix. This “new” version of the Joker is more realistic, showing him having a job as a rent-a-clown and taking care of his mother. He seems less like a comic book character and more like someone who is s...2021-11-1200 min

Peculiar Picture ShowTerminator 2: The Best Action Movie of All Time

The plot follows both Connors as they try to stop the impending robopocalypse of 1997.

Peculiar Picture ShowNetwork: Still Mad As Hell, Still Relevant
Intro by Brandon
Are you mad as hell? Are you not going to take it anymore? You can bet a lot of people today are, and a lot of that stems from news networks that have turned journalism into loaded commentary. That right there is why Network, a 1976 film about the television industry, is still relevant. For many today, favorite political commentators are viewed as religious figures. In this era of Fox News and sensationalized media, Network is the satirical comedy we need.

The 2013 film Her can seem like an unappealing premise for a movie: A guy falls in love with a computer operating system. Yeah, right. Not sure how they’re going to make that work.
Well, that’s what I thought. So I avoided watching the movie, and apparently Brandon did too, but I did eventually end up watching it somehow or another, and it actually wasn’t bad.

Peculiar Picture ShowThe Big Lebowski: Giving Approximately 280 Fucks About Philosophy and Politics
Intro by Brandon
The Big Lebowski is unabashedly a 90s comedy. It’s the mix of dark comedy and apathy that would hardly be around in a decade. In fact, it’s such a 90s film that it’s hard to really see the appeal if you didn’t spend your formative teenage or young adult years in the 90s. For this 90s kid, though, it’s a solid classic. This is in my top three comedies of all time, along with A Fish Called Wanda and Airplane!, two classics from the 80s.

Peculiar Picture ShowThere Will Be Blood: Capitalism, Religion, and Invisible Illness
Intro by Maria
The 2007 film There Will Be Blood acts like a master class in how to create an award-winning drama—it’s hard to argue against grandiose shots of oil country that so perfectly characterize Daniel and his drive for money and competition.
The movie, which is loosely based on Upton Sinclair’s novel Oil!, tells the story of Daniel Plainview, played intensely by Daniel Day-Lewis.

Peculiar Picture ShowThe King’s Speech: Stammering is No Joke
Intro by Brandon
Think of a movie character with a stutter. Got it? OK. What’s this character like? Are they a hero? What role do they play in the story? Hold onto that for a minute.
Today, we’re taking a look at the 2010 Best Picture winner The King’s Speech. It’s a slow-moving British drama about King George VI, who must lead the nation in the midst of royal turnover and a world war breaking out. There’s one problem. King George speaks with a stammer, and with the advent of radio, this becom...2021-02-2000 min
Peculiar Picture ShowMonster: Poverty, Sex Work, and Mental Health
Intro by Maria
Monster is a 2003 film that tells the story of Aileen Wuornos, or Lee Wuornos, a real-life serial killer who was active in Florida in 1989 and 1990. The film doesn’t get into the nitty gritty details of Lee’s capture, trial, and eventual execution, like some dramas that focus on serial killers do; instead, the film gives us a brief snapshot of Lee’s humanity, particularly in the form of a woman named Selby. Lee and Selby fall in love—pretty quickly it seems, but we talk more about that in the episode.

Peculiar Picture ShowBoyhood: 12 Years of Puberty, Personality, and Abuse
Intro by Maria
We’re gathered here today to talk about the 2014 film Boyhood, directed by Richard Linklater and starring Ethan Hawke and Patricia Arquette.
The movie’s plot is simple: We follow the protagonist, Mason Jr., as he grows from a boy, age 6, to adulthood, age 18—over the span of 12 years. When I say over the span of 12 years, Linklater literally filmed the movie for a few weeks at a time each year for 12 years. This tactic may seem gimmicky, but as Brandon and I discuss, it works for this film to give it an unp...2021-01-0900 min
Peculiar Picture ShowSecretary: 50 Shades Better Than Other BDSM Movies (with guests Marion and Kim!)
Intro written by Brandon, performed by Maria
BDSM used to be a pretty taboo topic in film—until the godawful Fifty Shades of Grey exploited it as an artless debacle. But back in 2002, serious portrayals were a pretty foreign topic in cinema. Most of the time when it showed up in film, it was the punchline to a raunchy joke. In 2002, Secretary gave us a serious look at what a real BDSM relationship could look like, and it’s surprisingly a lot more sweet and romantic—and empowering—than most other BDSM films would lead you to believe...2020-12-2500 minPeculiar Picture ShowMovies I Watch When I’m Depressed
Hey folks, Brandon Gregory here with a minisode to give ourselves a little break for the holidays. I’m flying solo today, but Maria’s going to be back with us next episode.
Listeners of this show know that both Maria and I struggle with depression. And it sounds so ominous when you say it like that—“struggle with depression”—but now that I’m almost 40 years old, I’ve come to accept this about myself. While it can still be crippling at times, there are also times when depression is just this normal part of my life. Like, oh...2020-12-1200 minPeculiar Picture ShowBorderline Personality Disorder: A Day in Maria’s Life

Peculiar Picture ShowGrave of the Fireflies: A Soul-Crushing Wartime Film
Intro by Brandon
Grave of the Fireflies is a 1988 anime film which tells the story of two Japanese children orphaned after an American firebombing raid during World War II. It’s widely regarded as one of the saddest movies of all time. Or at least on Reddit. That’s where I read that. Anyway, it’s not just sad—it’s soul-crushing. Which of course meant that Maria and I loved it.
This is a bit of a unique film. There are a lot of war films, but not many from a civilian’s perspective, and far fewe...2020-11-1400 min
