Members can enjoy an extended discussion of five additional films: Bashu, the Little Stranger (1989); A Moment of Innocence (1996); Children of Heaven (1997); Tales (2014); and Taxi (2015).Legacy and PreservationThe Iranian New Wave presents unique challenges in preservation and accessibility today. However, the movement's emphasis on authentic storytelling, visual poetry, and social consciousness has secured its place in cinema history. Through careful analysis of these groundbreaking films, we discover how Iranian New Wave cinema revolutionized not just Iranian filmmaking, but the global art house scene as well.Join us for this fascinating exploration of one of cinema's most influential movements, and discover how these pioneering filmmakers found beauty and meaning in the everyday lives of ordinary people.Film SundriesWatch our conversation on YouTube!Check out Kaveh Askari’s books:Relaying Cinema in Midcentury IranMaking Movies Into ArtRecommended and Discussed MoviesThe House Is Black on JustWatchThe Brick and the Mirror on JustWatchThe Cow on YouTube and JustWatchBashu, the Little Stranger on YouTube and AmazonTaste of Cherry on Apple, Amazon, and JustWatchA Moment of Innocence on YouTube, Amazon, and JustWatchChildren of Heaven on Apple, Amazon, and JustWatchAt Five in the Afternoon on Amazon and YouTubeTales on JustWatchTaxi on Apple, Amazon, and JustWatchOur Letterboxd ListIf you enjoyed our discussion on the Iranian New Wave episode and want to explore more films from this remarkable era, our guest Kaveh Askari has put together a list of must-watch recommendations.

    Comedy's Canvas: Adam "Tex" Davis on Laughter's Evolution in Cinema
    2025/02/12
    Join Andy Nelson and screenwriter and podcast host Adam "Tex" Davis on a laughter-filled journey through the evolution of comedy in cinema. From silent-era slapstick to modern genre-bending masterpieces, this episode explores how comedy has entertained audiences while serving as a powerful tool for social commentary across decades of filmmaking.The Evolution of Comedy in Film HistoryBeginning with early works like The Sprinkler Sprinkled, the episode traces comedy's development through silent legends like Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton. The conversation then moves through screwball classics like It Happened One Night, dark comedies such as Harold and Maude, and groundbreaking satires including Blazing Saddles and Dr. Strangelove. Davis, who wrote Just Friends, offers unique insights into how comedy writing and audience reception have evolved over time.Breaking Boundaries Through LaughterThe discussion examines how filmmakers have used comedy to push societal boundaries and address serious issues. From Mel Brooks tackling racism to the Coen Brothers blending genres, comedy has proven to be a versatile medium for both entertainment and commentary. Additionally, the episode explores how different comedy styles – from slapstick to satire, parody to romantic comedy – reflect changing cultural attitudes and values.Looking toward comedy's future, Davis emphasizes the importance of "punching up" rather than down, suggesting that successful comedy relies more on honest storytelling and well-developed characters than outrageous premises. Whether examining classics like The Graduate or modern hits like Everything Everywhere All at Once, this episode offers valuable insights into why comedy remains an essential and enduring force in cinema.Film SundriesFind Adam at Atomic Entertainment, on BlueSky, or LinkedInTune in to The OSCARS: What Were They Thinking?Tune in to SlaycationTune in to Who Smarted?Our Letterboxd Listno member bonus content this month (00:00) - Welcome to Cinema Scope • Comedy(06:07) - Meet Adam “Tex” Davis(10:21) - The Draw to Comedy(12:35) - Why It’s Important(18:39) - The Silent Era(25:19) - The 30s to the 50s(43:01) - The 60s and 70s(01:08:28) - The 80s and 90s(01:17:18) - The 2000s Through to Today(01:20:48) - Moving Forward(01:22:44) - Wrap Up Learn how to support our show and The Next Reel’s family of film podcasts by becoming a member.
