'American Fiction'

As we roll into Fixie week and catch up on some Pods, we react to American Fiction, the Oscar-nominated for Best Picture film that examines where the line between race and literature intersect.  

'The Zone of Interest'

Jonathan Glazer's highly acclaimed and Oscar-nominated The Zone of Interest certainly isn't for everybody. But could the GYFF boys sit through this slice of life from the Holocaust?

’The Sting’ | 50th Anniversary

Its been fifty years since The Sting set the box office on fire in 1973. An seminal film in the childhood's of Lee and Jeremy, but the question on everyone's lips is did Chapin enjoy the follow up to Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid?

’Oppenheimer’

At last!  One of the most anticipated movies of the year is here with Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer! Does the Nolan hype hold up? Who saw it digitally? Who saw it in 70mm? Did anyone see it in IMAX?  FIND OUT!

 

Correction: Chapin referred to a B-27 bomber in the podcast and claimed the United States built 50,000 of them. In fact, there is no B-27. He was referring to the B-17, of which the U.S. built over 12,000. Still impressive.
