  • Join Dave and Elise every week for a buggy-ride of cinematic exploration. A bilingual Montreal native and a Prairies hayseed gravitate to Toronto for the film culture, meet on OK Cupid, and spur on each other's movie-love, culminating in this podcast. Expect in-depth discussion of our old favourites (mostly studio-era Hollywood) and our latest frontiers. We like to bring attention to neglected figures and dig into little-known corners of film history and popular culture, and we hope that we can also bring new perspectives to the familiar. The podcast will be comprised of several potentially never-ending series: - Fear & Moviegoing in Toronto: Our Perspectives on Choice Local Retrospectives (PAUSED BY PANDEMIC) - Hollywood Studios – Year by Year: Deep-cut dishing on Paramount, MGM, Warner Brothers, RKO, Fox, and Universal items from 1930 to 1948. - Acteurist oeuvre-views/spotlights on worthy on-camera creatives, beginning with Jennifer Jones and Setsuko Hara. - And a big parade of special subjects hand-chosen by whichever of your hosts happens to have a handle on this buggy that week.

  • Hollywood Studios Year-by-Year – Fox Film Corporation – 1930: CITY GIRL and JUST IMAGINE

    Hollywood Studios Year-by-Year – Fox Film Corporation – 1930: CITY GIRL and JUST IMAGINE
    2025/03/07

    The first episode of our second Studios Year by Year round with Fox, the "Rube" according to Ethan Mordden, is a real ridiculous/sublime contrast: the sci-fi musical comedy Just Imagine (directed by David Butler), a vehicle for vaudevillian El Brendel, in whom Dave may have found his comedy bête noir; and the F. W. Murnau masterpiece City Girl, which reworks Sunrise with (we speculate) a Borzagean twist. Come for the idiotic, stay for the profound?

    Time Codes:

    0h 00m 25s: Fox Recap

    0h 12m 41s: CITY GIRL [dir. F.W. Murnau]

  • Acteurist Oeuvre-view - Diana Wynyard – Part 4: ONE MORE RIVER (1934) and ON THE NIGHT OF THE FIRE (1940)

    Acteurist Oeuvre-view - Diana Wynyard – Part 4: ONE MORE RIVER (1934) and ON THE NIGHT OF THE FIRE (1940)
    2025/02/28

    In this Diana Wynyard Acteurist Oeuvre-view episode we finally come to the source, James Whale's One More River (1934), the movie that inspired Dave to schedule this series, and don't worry, we still think it's a masterpiece. We recap how we've watched the Wynyard onscreen persona evolve and how Whale's new context for it gives it an unforgettable impact. And then we watch Wynyard discard that persona in On the Night of the Fire (1939), playing the supportive but stymied wife of Ralph Richardson's beleaguered Everyman in this ultra-despairing British noir. Two must-watches!

    Time Codes:

    0h 00m 25s: ONE MORE RIVER (1934) [dir. James Whale]

    0h 54m 37s: ON THE NIGHT OF THE FIRE (1940) [dir. Brian Desmond Hurst]

  • Hollywood Studios Year-by-Year – Warner Brothers – 1930: A NOTORIOUS AFFAIR & THE DOORWAY TO HELL

    Hollywood Studios Year-by-Year – Warner Brothers – 1930: A NOTORIOUS AFFAIR & THE DOORWAY TO HELL
    2025/02/21

    For the first episode of our second round of Warner Brothers 1930, we've got a thoughtful, ambitious gangster movie from the mind of little-known auteur Rowland Brown, The Doorway to Hell (directed by Archie Mayo), and a truly dismal melodrama, A Notorious Affair (directed by Lloyd Bacon), rescued from total worthlessness by Kay Francis's turn as a maneating countess. (Doorway to Hell is also notable for a very early appearance by another rising star, James Cagney, who, however, doesn't steal his movie as effectively as Francis does.) Plus, we give our lists of favourite Warner Brothers movies from Round One and offer our thoughts about the studio as auteur going into Round Two.

    Time Codes:

    0h 00m 25s: Warner Brothers Recap

    0h 28m 05s: A NOTORIOUS AFFAIR [dir. Lloyd Bacon]

    0h 43m 50s: THE DOORWAY TO HELL [dir. Archie Mayo]
