The Dudes get experimental with 1969's Funeral Parade of Roses. Equal parts surreal, profound, and beautiful, this film is entirely unpredictable, and deliberately makes a strong stance that being gay or trans is entirely normal no matter what you think about it. It's weird and lovely and you will never forget it.   QUESTION OF THE WEEK: What are your favorite experimental movies?   Thanks for listening!

Pride 2025 kicks off with class and panache with 1987's Maurice, a Merchant-Ivory joint full of wit and sophistication.  This tale of repression in early 20th Century England will both move you and outrage you, sometimes within the same scene.  We've come a long way, and yet much of this movie that takes place in 1910 will still feel unfortunately modern.     QUESTION OF THE WEEK: What are your favorite movies about repression?   Thanks for listening!

The Dudes discover sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll in 1970's Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. Written by Roger Ebert and directed by Russ Meyer, this debauched trip towards fame and fortune not only glamorizes late 60's counter culture, it satirizes Hollywood conventions of the era. This is our happening and it freaks us out!   QUESTION OF THE WEEK: What are the trashiest movies you've enjoyed multiple times?   Thanks for listening!

The Dudes get wasted and fight evil businessmen in 2000's The Legend of Drunken Master!

The Dudes wear pink wigs and yellow camo in 2003's Lost in Translation. Sofia Coppola's film about two lonely souls struggling with who they are and where they are in life is a refreshing and unique take on the romance genre. Scarlett Johansson is wise beyond her years and Bill Murray gives an Oscar deserving performance as basically himself. You'll find yourself rooting for these two throughout the entire film, and feel completely satisfied by the end.   Other movies discussed: High Sierra (1941) - Directed by Raoul Walsh An American in Paris (1951) - Directed by Vincente Minnelli   QUESTION OF THE WEEK: What are your favorite Science Fiction films with deeper meanings?   Thanks for listening!

The Dudes make a desert of their home and yours with 1968's Planet Of The Apes.  For cultural impact, there are few films more important than Franklin J. Schaffner's classic, and that they keep trying to recapture it's glory with re-makes proves it's continued relevance.  But stay out of the Forbidden Zone with those re-makes, because the original can't be beat!   Other movies discussed: The Rule of Jenny Pen (2024) - Directed by James Ashcroft Prey (2022) - Directed by Dan Trachtenberg   QUESTION OF THE WEEK: What are your favorite Science Fiction films with deeper meanings?   Thanks for listening!

The Dudes discover the dark side of suburbia with 1986's Blue Velvet. If you've never experienced David Lynch, this is the place to start. It's got all the hallmarks: thrilling mystery, unsettling characters, and psycho-sexual encounters with people you probably shouldn't be involved with. Throw in an off-the-rails Dennis Hopper, and you've got a masterpiece. Just look out for severed ears.   Other movies discussed: Black Bag (2025) - Directed by Steven Soderbergh Emilia Pérez (2024) - Directed by Jacques Audiard   QUESTION OF THE WEEK: What are your favorite over the top performances?   Thanks for listening!
