PODCAST

A decade under the influence

We watch 70"s movies and do two things: 1: We give commentary along with the movie that may or may not correspond with whats going on (we"re the people that talk through the whole f***ing movie) 2: We give a short review of the film and give our observations, some context, and how it lines up with other films of the era. We really enjoy 70"s cinema and want to expose you to it as well:-)

In this episode we watch and review a vhs copy of thx 1138, happily, since the Lucas remaster and ALL of Lucas’s “special editions” are in this humble reviewers opinion (shite). So fire up yer top loaders with us and enjoy ALL of the blessings of the state, and the masses. My time is yours! I love thx 1138, also I’m afraid it’s still quite relevant n all that sadly. Requesting a mind lock for my severe as F sedation depletion. As you know this is lucas’s remake of Lucas’s student film. This is key

Today our crew dives into Little Murders In 1971 Roger Ebert of the Chicago sun times gives this film 4 stars he writes "One of the reasons it works, and is indeed a definitive reflection of America's darker moods, is that it breaks audiences down into isolated individuals, vulnerable and uncertain. Most movies create a temporary sort of democracy, a community of strangers there in the darkened theater. Not this one. The movie seems to be saying that New York City has a similar effect on its

A TV movie Really? Yes really, it’s “special” it’s Star Wars on cocaine, it’s happy life day and all that. Also there just needed to be 1 more follow along commentary of this mess out there in the world. Your fearless 70’s movie podcast crew is up to the task. Actually this “special” is always a ruff road, but V liked the costumes, and I was a FOOL to not know until now that the iconic Bob Mackie designed them.

Ok so Hal Ashby directed 7 films in the 1970’s and your fearless decade under the influence crew is going to eventually watch and report on six of them. Harold and Maude is perhaps the most loved and well known of the bunch. I feel this movie to be magical and fierce and liberating. Dark yet wise revolutionary and also quite peaceful. Like punk rock as a teen this film saved my life. It’s timeless, but is it? Let’s talk about it? A movie so good that it makes you almost like Cat Stevens music. You

Gordon Parks does it again! I would have loved to have known him and been able to hang out with him at such a productive period of his life. Whether photographing the Black Panthers or making movies like Shaft, Super Cops, and today's film Leadbelly. He does such a great job grabbing people from the past or his present to tell important stories. —Brian W Martz <B.Martz@Genie.com> described the movie below: The life of Blues and folk singer Huddie Leadbetter, nicknamed Leadbelly is recounted
