Matt and Ryder love The Brutalist! Corbin thinks it's fine. We talk about it! Topics: codings in the text, the question of a broad anti-oppression reading vs. a zionist one, and the life of an artist, which sucks ass.

Corbin reccomends TWO MOVIES currently in theaters. Ryder reccomends "Different Trains" by Steve Reich. Matt reccomends "Blueprinting" by the Aizuri Quartet.

Next week's episode will be the beginning of a new series, DIGITAL FRONTIERS, a history of the early days of Digital Cinema. Our subject will be "The Celebration" by Thomas Vintenberg. Watch it here.

Last year, Timothee Chalamet played the role of Bob Dylan in a major motion picture. It was all a little pointless, though, seeing as Robert Zimmerman has been playing the role of Bob Dylan in the movies for 60 years now. This week, we watched America's Onery Boy in 'Don't Look Back," D.A. Pennebaker's Cinéma vérité classic about Dylan's 1965 tour of England, where our hero spins Donnovan around, gets in fights with journalists, and meets the high sherrif's wife, and talked about it with Corbin's fellow Dylan sicko Ryder Canepa.

Corbin reccomends Skyrim, which you probably already own. Matt reccomends an appliance. Ryder reccomends 'The Creature' and 'Zeiram,' two weird little movies. Corbin also reccomends this essay by Patricia Lockwood.

For reasons too tedious to get into here, next week's episode is NOT about Unrest. It will, instead, be about The Brutalist, which is currently in theaters. Ryder will be joining us again for the episode, which is pretty funny.

This week, David Lynch, a titan of the form and one of the great American artists of the post-war era, passed away at the age of 78. In tribute, Corbin and Matt talked about 'Mulholland Dr.,' his 2001 masterpiece. Watch it here.

Check out a really neat essay about the movie's multifuntional narrative here. Matt reccomends The Brutalist, currently in theaters. Corbin reccomends UFO 50, snag it here. Our next episode will PROBABLY be about "Don't Look Back," finally, but it could end up being about The Brutalist. We'll find out together.

A few months back, Corbin and Ellis watched a movie about anarchist swiss watchmakers. Then they talked about it. Whatever else happened, Corbin cannot presently recall.

Next week's episode will PROBABLY be about 'Don't Look Back,' but David Lynch's death (RIP) might complicate that plan. Whatever the case it will exist.

Hey I know we promised you Bob Dylan Sicko Stuff but the episode has some tech problems we gotta work out so first Ellis and Corbin are talking about 'Songs from the Second Floor," a Swedish Kids in the Hall Movie. It's been. while since we watched it so I can't remember what happens in it. Watch it here.

Next week's episode will be about either 'Unrest' or 'Don't Look Back,' depending on like six things. Sorry for the break, It was New Year's.

How did consumer culture change in the 50 years following "A Miracle on 34th Street? (1947)?" Big news, they made ANOTHER ONE and it TELLS YPOU EVERYTHING YOU KNOW! Topics include: Dylan McDermott: too hot to not get a shot, too untalanted to make much of it, the weird loss of the original's cynicysim, Wal-Mart, and the question of what the NEXT remake of this movie will look like.

Next week's episode is about "DON'T LOOK BACK." Watch it here.

Corbin and Matt talk about 'MIRACLE ON 34th STREET, a Sentimental Christmas Classic about Department Stores and the supremac y of the suburban lifestyle. We recorded it a few weeks ago so Corbin forgot specific topics but he suspects they talk about the emergence of consumer culture in America, the eternal American Christmas Disconnection, and the movie's oddly cynical edge.

Watch the movie here. Check out Land of Desire, a book about the history of the department store, here.

Corbin reccomends "THE JOY OF CHRISTMAS," a Bob Dylan album. Matt reccomends his own website. Next week's episode is about "Miracle on 34th Street," but the 1997 version. Watch it here.

Matt and Corbin are joing by CAM CROWELL (Inaction) to talk about VOLCANO, a Los Angeles Disaster Movie. Topics include: Anne Heche, sweet as pie, Mike Davis, man's craving to see LA Doomed, the percise geography at work in this bad boy, and, of course, Don Cheadle.

Watch Volcano here. Read "The Literary Destruction of Los Angeles" by Mike Davis here.

Matt reccomends the director's cut of Ridley Scott's Napolean. Cam reccomends Christmas Evil. Corbin reccomends Corbin reccomends "The Duelists."

Next week's episode is about "Miracle on 34th Street," the 1947 version. (I do not know why I said it was Unrest, which will come out around the beginning of ng of next year). You can find it everywhere.
