About

Chris and Collin catch up on what we have been watching since we last recorded, before getting into 2019's bizarre film The Lighthouse.The Lighthouse is a film that is as much about its atmosphere as it is about anything else and it is unlike anything else that has come out in recent years. From its use of period specific language to the manner in which it was shot, Robert Eggers does everything right with this one. After our main discussion we discuss some of our favorite films on isolation and loneliness.What we have been watching:ChrisThe Scent of Green Papaya, Anh Hung Tran (1993)Playtime, Jacques Tati (1967)CollinAlien3, David Fincher (1992)Die Hard, John McTiernan (1988)Parasite, Bong Joon-ho (2019)Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Michael Gondry (2004)Our Favorite Isolation and Loneliness Films:The Thing, John Carpenter (1982)Alien FranchiseThe Hateful Eight, Quentin Tarantino (2015)Lost in Translation, Sofia Coppola (2003)The Night Of, Mini Series (2016)Taxi Driver, Martin Scorsese (1976)Night of the Living Dead, George A.
