Marnie (1964, Alfred Hitchcock)

Patrick:
Kitbull (2019, Rosana Sullivan)
Deep Cover (1992, Bill Duke)

Denouncements:
Basil:
Sophie’s Choice (1982, Alan J. Pakula)
The Suckling (1990, Francis Teri)

Reuben:
It (1927, Clarence G. Badger)
Rocco And His Brothers (1960, Luchino Visconti)

Patrick:
Little (2019, Tina Gordon)

Ilya didn’t have anything to Herald or Denounce this month! So all he did was host. And what a hosting job he did!

Fancy Film Fellows Mini-Sode 2: John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum

Our second mini-episode! Another new release! This time Patrick is joined by Reuben and Basil to discuss the newest entry in the John Wick series. Ilya couldn’t make it because it doesn’t come out in Germany until next weekend. Damn those German release dates. This is much closer to what we meant by an actual mini-sode. It’s under an hour! We talk about franchises, heroes and villains, stunt work, violence, all that stuff.

Fancy Film Fellows Ep. 8 The Spit Ball #1: Titles

Fancy Film Fellows has another new podcast and another new format. This week it's The Spit Ball, a roundtable question podcast, where one of the Fancy Fellows brings a topic that they want to discuss more generally as opposed one specific movie or a couple of movies. The Spit Ball the first is about film titles and is hosted by Reuben. All of the original crew joins in as we discuss what we think of titles, what some good and bad titles are, what makes them good or bad, and even how and why movie titles might be different than titles for other artforms.

Fancy Film Fellows Ep. 7 Readin' 'N' Watchin' #1: Brokeback Mountain

Another week another Fancy Film Fellows podcast series. This time it’s a series we’re calling Readin’ ‘N’ Watchin’: No Stephen King Adaptations Allowed. In this series we pick a short story that was adapted into a movie, read the short story, then watch the movie! Basil and Hayley created this series and the only guest for the inaugural episode is Hayley’s pet bird. He makes a lot of noise though! Apologies for that. They didn’t realize as they were recording just how loud he would be. We promise all future episodes will be bird-free.

Fancy Film Fellows Ep.6 Film Flam #1

This week we bring you our first episode of a series we’re calling Film Flam, where we play movie related trivia games. In the ultimate example of navel gazing, we play some games we stole from Doug Loves Movies and an extended game of trivia about our former podcast, Loose Canons. Reuben hosts the game show, while Patrick, Basil, and Ilya try to find out just how much they know about themselves!

Fancy Film Fellows Mini-Sode 1: Avengers: Endgame

This week we bring you our first Mini-Sode of Fancy Film Fellows. At least, that’s what we intended it to be. But a three hour movie ends up bringing a lot of talking, so the only thing very miniature about it is the number of hosts. Last year Reuben and Patrick did an episode on Avengers: Infinity War so this time we thought it would be fun if the other half of the core four, Basil and Ilya, came on to discuss the second half of the biggest movie event of the 21st century.

Fancy Film Fellows Ep.5 Slumber Party Cinema #2: Summer of Sam

This week we return for our second episode of Slumber Party Cinema. Basil, Ilya, Patrick & Reuben all get together to discuss one of Spike Lee’s less talked about ‘90s movies. Toxic masculinity in the ‘70s abounds! Adrien Brody plays a punk rocker. Post-Romy And Michele Mira Sorvino is here! Ben Gazzara! How did we feel about Spike Lee’s take on the serial killer genre. Listen in!
