Title | Directed by | Episode | Genre | Julie's Verdict |
---|---|---|---|---|
The Act of Killing | Joshua Oppenheimer, Christine Cynn, and Anonymous | Episode 153 | Documentary | |
After Porn Ends | Bryce Wagoner | Episode 150 | Oh Boy | Yeeeeeesh |
Aileen: Life and Death of a Serial Killer | Nick Broomfield | Documentary | ||
All that Jazz | Bob Fosse | Episode 152 | Musical | Great. Julie relates Bob Fosse to Stanley Kubrick. Geniuses who used actors and performers like art supplies. Fosse specifically using actors and dancers as an extension of his own wants and needs as an artist and choreographer and creating movements and performances never seen before. Nobody moves like Ann Reinking. |
Alien | Ridley Scott | Episode 148 | Horror/Science Fiction | A Good Movie. Julie was glad that the cat survived and was inspired by H.R. Giger's creep art.(The latter not true) |
Almost Famous | Cameron Crowe | Episode 165 | Music-oriented | Not very good, guys.Cameron Crowe might not be very good. |

The Birdcage | Mike Nichols | Comedy | ||
Big Business | Jim Abrahams | Episode 2 | Comedy | |
The Big Chill | Lawrence Kasdan | Episode 183 | Baby Boomer Entitlement Incarnate | The Robert Frost ode to White People. A garbage movie. Glenn Close bakes and cries in the shower and her hair is nice. Jeff Goldblum is gross. William Hurt is impotent(Vietnam?) and he does cocaine and has an earring. The Motown soundtrack is patronizing because it becomes background noise to the white experience or is appropriated into this bland lifestyle of people whose coolness peaked when The Beatles and Bob Dylan peaked in the culture. The movie kills itself for a state of authenticity that was never authentic. Burn this movie/this baby boomer entitlement to the ground, start over, or give the millennials the keys. |

Funny Girl | William Wyler | Episode 146: "The Opposite of Rock & Roll" | Musical romantic comedy | The opposite of Rock & Roll. Julie remembers "Don't Rain on My Parade" being much more radical when she heard the song and saw this movie as a child but watching it as an adult, she has more reservations on this movie, the song, and Barbara Streisand as a feminine figure. |

Ghostbusters | Ivan Reitman | Episode 2 | Comedy | |

The Hollywood Complex | Dylan Nelson & Dan Sturman | Documentary | ||
Hoop Dreams | Steve James | Episode 73: "The Sneaker Nap" | Documentary | Could have been better if it had followed the cheerleaders. |

Married to the Eiffel Tower | Agnieszka Piotrowska | Episode 20 | Documentary | |
Mask | Peter Bogdanovich | Episode 2 | Drama | |

Moonstruck | Norman Jewison | Episode 2 | Comedy | |
Mr. Death: The Rise and Fall of Fred A. Leuchter, Jr. | Errol Morris | Documentary | ||
Nashville | Robert Altman | Drama | ||
Never Sleep Again:The Elm Street Legacy | Daniel Farrands and Andrew Kasch | Episode 165 | DVD extra | Julie doesn't care about the Nightmare on Elm Street series, but she watched this documentary from start to finish and now knows everything about it. Robert Englund is probably terrible in bed. These aren't feminists movies if Freddy Krueger is the one you're rooting for. Freddy Krueger represents the horrible 1980's where the bad guys won. Also, The Fresh Prince was a loser. Nightmare on My Street is not a pun, you idiot. |

Popeye | Robert Altman | Musical | Julie cocainplained what brought about this film and how weird this film is even though she remembers her family thinking it was a standard family film when in reality it is pretty weird. Everyone making it(Robert Evans, Jules Feiffer, Robert Altman) was like "Toot toot up the patoot" with dunes of white stuff they had just lying around. This is what coke could accomplish. The residents of Sweet Haven are weird. "He Needs Me" is beautiful. "He's Large" is one of the best musical comedy moment songs. Linda Hunt is in it but not in it enough, but there is an Octopus. | |

Pulp Fiction | Quentin Tarantino | Episode 132 | Drama | |
The Queen of Versailles | Lauren Greenfield | Episode 74 | Documentary | Julie loved it. |

Sisters | Brian de Palma | Suspense | Episode 186 | Julie enjoyed it but doesn't know if it was good. It could be terrible. It's probably terrible. Margot Kidder and William Finley(Winslow Leach from The Phantom of the Paradise) play French Canadians. |
Sling Blade | Billy Bob Thornton | http://howwasyourweek.libsyn.com/merrill-markoe-brian-stack-andy-kindler-hwyw-gem-vol-6- Gems Vol. 6] | Southern Gothic/90's movie/Yup | The film Billy Bob Thornton wanted to make in the 90's. He wrote it. He wanted to direct it. He wanted to star in it. And then some years later he had the filthiest and most macabre sex with Angelina Jolie imaginable where they drank each other's pee probably. |

Splash | Ron Howard | Comedy | ||
Stanley Kubrick's Boxes | Jon Ronson | Documentary | ||
Supermensch: The Legend of Shep Gordon | Mike Myers | Episode 172: "Pellet of Pleasure" | Documentary | Myers' directorial choices were occasionally baffling. He does a lot of things that Soderbergh would not have done. |
