For Films SakeEpisode 87: Sociopaths As Avatars.Yo! So this is a bit of a thinky episode. We're talking about the concept of Sociopaths as Avatars for the audience in film.

For Films SakeEpisode 86: Do The Right Thing!Yo! This classic is honestly a trip down nostalgia lane if you're any of the cultures that Spike Lee explores in this movie. The level of authenticity in this film is genuinely impressive. I think it's a fantastic character study and honestly a brilliantly funny but conceptually dark film near the end. A proper recommendation if you've yet to see it. Plus, it' sone of the few Criterion Collection Movies I enjoy.Cheers! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

For Films SakeEpisode 56: The Edge Of SeventeenYo! We're talking Edge of Seventeen. I think this is a brilliant movie and was my top 1 on my top ten list of 2016. Emotionally accurate, it's a fresh take on the John Hughes type of comedy and it's heartbreakingly hilarious. If you haven't seen it, I strongly recommend it. It may look like another teen drama, but I guarantee you that it isn't just that. It's a lot of fun and as you'll be able to tell from the episode, I have a lot of fun talking about this movie and all the thoughts it can spawn.Cheers! Enjoy the...

For Films SakeEpisode 47: Birdman (Or The Unexpected Virtue Of Ignorance)What are we doing here?Talking about Birdman. Man, that sounded funnier in my head. Look, we're talking Birdman. It's a great film, Alejandro G. Iñarratu did a brilliant job directing this film and although me and Chris loved it, it was for entirely different reasons. That's kind of my favourite thing about this movie. We recommend the hell out of it. Here's a link to watch it: https://www.amazon.com/Birdman-Michael-Keaton/dp/B00TPJE3ZK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1482208775&sr=8-1&keywords=birdman Hosted on Acast.

For Films SakeEpisode 45: HeatToday we talk about Heat, the Michael Mann movie where Al Pacino and Robert Deniro try to kill to each other. It's great, despite it being about an hour too long. Honestly, I'm a little fascinated by how me and Chris found such different elements of the movie entertaining and effective. We both really like the movie but I think it's for entirely different reasons. Except Pacino and Deniro, that's enough to love any movie. Cheers!-B Hosted on Acast.

For Films SakeEpisode 42: Following - Dir. By Christopher NolanChristopher's Nolan first film is damn fascinating. I feel like I learned a lot about Nolan based on this piece of work and I'm really happy that Chris suggested it. If you haven't watched it, do so. It's a brilliant example of how to tell the development of character through the 8 sequences of story.Cheers! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

For Films SakeEpisode 31: In BrugesThis is one of my favourite movies and I was so happy when Chris decided to talk about it. I love this damn movie so much. It's genuinely my idea of a modern masterpiece, whether it's the perfectly paced dialogue and extremely complex themes of guilt, purgatory, the afterlife and the consequences of one's actions packed into digestible nuggets of wisdom disguised as comedy. It's brilliant, go watch it.
