Patreon Preview: Graduation Special

Graduation Special: Patreon Preview

For this very special Patreon-Exclusive Graduation Episode, we will look back on convocations of yore. We may remember summer affairs with a prototypical cougar, and we may reflect upon our impoverished collegiate experience and be grateful for what our lack afforded us. Perhaps we’ll find affirmation that it does, indeed, get better. Primarily, we’ll confabulate on the inexplicable frequency of stalking as a recurrent theme bedevilling women in graduation films.

So throw your caps in the air and get ready to walk across the stage with us as Talk Movie To Me celebrates the class of 2022!

Oscars Special 2022

TMTM Fifth Annual Oscar Special

It's that time of the year listeners, Academy Award Weekend, aka Second Christmas. In Talk Movie To Me's fifth annual Oscar special, we delve into the nominees; who we think are front-runners and who we'd like to see take home the statue. We discuss what it means to "campaign" for an award, the academy's decision to present certain categories before the telecast, and some of the trailblazer nominees in 2022. You don't want to miss one of our favourite episodes of the year!

The Batman

The Batman & “Behind the Mask”

This week we become the world’s greatest detectives as we set out to find the Dark Knight of Gotham City. The city is overrun by corruption, crime and greed. But in the shadows awaits vengeance, whose name is The Batman. Did we purr with pleasure for the latest film about the Caped Crusader, or did the movie pose more riddles than answers? Then, for Our Week In Entertainment, we each watched a film that fits the theme, “Behind the Mask”.

Double Feature: CODA & Red Rocket

DOUBLE FEATURE: Coda & Red Rocket

This week it’s DOUBLE FEATURE time! First up we discuss audience favourite Coda. Does this film have enough charm to warrant all the Oscar buzz? We weigh in. Next up we delve into the chaos that is Sean Baker’s new film Red Rocket. Did the film seduce us or was it as stale as a day old sprinkled donut?

West Side Story

West Side Story & “Music to My Ears”

This week we feel pretty, oh so pretty! We feel pretty and witty and gay (well, at least one of us), because somehow, someday, somewhere our dear listeners will be joining us as we talk about Steven Spielberg’s remake of West Side Story. Did this film give us the most beautiful sound we’d ever heard, or was it a bit tone deaf? In Our Week in Entertainment we discuss films that were music to our ears and finally we finish off with a fun little game of Dance, Rumble, Shank!

Licorice Pizza

Licorice Pizza & “Salty but Sweet”

We finally made it back to the cinema to see Paul Thomas Anderson's Licorice Pizza. This week, Licorice Pizza received three Oscar nominations and we're doing a deep-dish-dive into this Best Picture nominee. For Our Week In Entertainment, we all chose films that fit the theme "Salty but Sweet". And lastly we play a game Edison like's to call "She Sang What Now?".

In Focus - Sandra Bullock

In Focus Sandra Bullock

We’ve got a Proposal for you! This week, we’re going full Speed ahead and turning up the Heat for this episode as we deep dive into the filmography of our very own Miss Congeniality. This hugely bankable star made $20 million While You Were Sleeping and even though there’s been the odd film to Crash, most of them have delivered enough Practical Magic to keep audience’s love for this star defying Gravity. Let’s get Armed & Fabulous, dear listeners, because this it’s time to put the career of Sandra Bullock In Focus.

The Tragedy of Macbeth

The Tragedy of Macbeth & “All the World’s a Stage”

HARK! Tis time! Tis time! The witch’s cauldron doth say, we must discuss the Scottish Play! All hail our new episode! This week we explore Shakespearean tragedy in style, and watch The Tragedy of Macbeth! For Our Week In Entertainment we watch films that fit the theme “All the world’s a stage.” And finally we play a fun little game Helen made up called “Shakespardy.” Who was crowned King and who’s score was just tragic? Throw on thy borrowed robes and summon thy raven film lovers because it’s getting Elizabethan here at Talk Movie To Me!

This week it’s Double Feature time and we are serving up two movies that you can currently stream on Netflix. First up, we chat about Adam McKay’s new star studded end of the world spectacle Don’t Look Up. Did it make a deep impact or only a small ripple? Finally, we tackle the trials and tribulations of motherhood as seen through the eyes of Maggie Gyllenhaal, with her directorial debut The Lost Daughter.

Christmas Special 2021

Chaotic Christmas 2021

HO HO Happy HOlidays!! For our 5th Annual Holiday Special Helen, Ms Sinclair and Edison crack a bottle of prosecco … and some wine …. and rumnogs…. And you definitely won’t be able to notice! So join us for a bit of tipsy celebration as we discuss some classic holiday movies and the Queen of Christmas’ new Apple TV special. Was it Golden Globe worthy, or just a bust?

DOUBLE FEATURE: The Power of the Dog, C’mon C’mon

Grab your rope and leather chaps because it’s time for another Double Feature! This week we were wowed by Jane Campion’s new film The Power of the Dog. Next up we were emotionally moved by the sweet new Mike Mills’ movie C’mon C’mon starring the versatile Joaquin Phoenix.

The French Dispatch

The French Dispatch & “Curiosity Killed the Cat”

This week we delve into the wordy, whimsical, wacky world of Wes Anderson’s new film The French Dispatch. Join us while we ponder the question “Can a Wes Anderson film be too Wes Anderson?” Next up we explore the theme “Curiosity Killed the Cat.” And finally Helen leads us through a purrrrrrfectly fun game called “What’s new pussy cat.”

Double Feature: Spencer & Eternals

Double Feature: Spencer & Eternals

It’s double feature week y’all! First we settle in to spend the holidays with Princess Diana, but this experience is far from festive. Pablo Larraín’s Spencer is a beautifully moody and haunting portrayal of Princess Diana during Christmas in the early ‘90s with Kristen Stewart in the lead role. Then we take a hard right into the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Eternals. Is this movie everything Edison’s been waiting for since the start of 2020? You’ll have to listen to find out!
