Directed by Steven Spielberg and Starring Roy Scheider, Richard Dreyfuss, and Robert Shaw. Cheers!

One more for the Bard! In our farewell to Shakespeare, we are discussing the importance and timelessness of the Bard's work through the fantastically meta Oscar-winning film, Shakespeare in Love.

We're back with another bard-centric teen rom com of the sports variety!

What's your favorite line from this iconic film? We have a few! Starring Amanda Bynes and Channing Tatum. Cheers!

We're BACK and ready to rock n' roll with our favorite romantic comedy, 10 things I hate about you! This movie truly has every niche within a niche, grand gesture,  iconic line, and the best angry girl music of the indie rock persuasion we could hope for. If you wanted to hear Sara absolutely butcher some Shakespeare this is the episode for you! Starring Heath Ledger, Julia Stiles, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Gabrielle Union, Larisa Oleynik, and Alison Janney. Cheers!

We've got a Noirvember straggler episode for you! Before we completely switch gears and talk rom-coms for February, please enjoy our latest episode on the critically acclaimed and very niche David Lynch film, Mulholland Drive. This film is like a fever dream with all of the layers and seediness of a Hollywood film noir you could possibly want! What's your favorite theory about the meaning behind this film? Starring Naomi Watts, Laura Harring, and Justin Theroux. Cheers!

We're discussing what is considered one of the best films ever made this week as we explore all of the seedy and nihilistic glory that is Chinatown! Starring Faye Dunaway, Jack Nicholson, and John Huston. Cheers! 

We're talking about a unique and honestly under underrated film noir this week as we analyze the the lesser known classic, Touch of Evil. This movie has a lot of chaos and a lot of moody, seedy, underworld corruption and we're here for it! Starring Orson Welles, Janet Leigh, Charlton Heston, and Marlene Dietrich. Cheers!

It is officially Noirvember! Dark and moody movies just in time for a dark and moody season. To kick things off we're sipping on an upgraded Whiskey Sour and talking about an aloof classic, Out of the Past. This movie has everything you could ever want in a Noir: mood lighting, lots of smoke, flashbacks, hardboiled dudes in trench coats, and of course....our favorite archetype, the Femme Fatale. Starring Jane Greer, Robert Mitchum, and Kirk Douglas. Cheers! Whiskey Sour with OJ: 2 oz Rye...

Another year another spooky season come and gone. We are ending October with a halloween classic, Hocus Pocus. This movie is so enjoyable and we recommend it to absolutely everyone. Starring Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy. Cheers!

Chaotic Cary Grant trying to cover for his serial killer aunts is the spooky screwball comedy we needed. this Frank Capra halloween classic is macabre fun at its finest. Starring Cary Grant, Priscilla Lane, Peter Lorre, Raymond Massey, Josephine Hull, and Jane Adair. Cheers!

We're doing chaotic spooky this week as we discuss the most irreverent movie we've probably ever seen. Pure entertainment from start to finish. Starring no one you've ever heard of. Pair (responsibly) with a Bloody Mary. cheers!

It's FINALLY spooky season - our favorite time of the year! We're kicking off our month of campy halloween classics with the Universal Pictures classic, Frankenstein. Lots of grave robbing and pseudoscience going on here. Starring Boris Karloff, and based on the novel by Mary Shelley. Cheers!

Join us as we "wine" down animation month with a glass of red or white and discuss our favorite animated movie of the month, the iconic memoir, Persepolis. We're discussing this poignant and timely story of one woman's experience living through political and cultural revolutions, immigration, and how someone's perspective of civil unrest changes as they grow up. This story is reflective and relevant as so many Iranian women continue to fight for their freedom today.  We consider it required...

Imbibe in a Wet Woody as we take a journey down nostalgia street with one of our favorite childhood films, Toy Story 2. We're talking Pixar, love, life, sequels that are better than originals, and what we leave behind when we grow up as we laugh and cry our way through this beautiful film.

Welcome to animation nation! We're going to be spending a few episodes discussing some of the movies that we loved as kids, starting with the ultimate cartoon classic, Snow White. This is the movie that started it all. Grab yourself a perfectly curated jam cocktail (a Lydia Jordan creation) and listen in as we talk about Disney, the Brothers Grimm, and German Expressionism. Cheers! Jam and Yogurt Cocktail: 1 1/2 oz gin or vodka; 1/2 oz plain yogurt 1/2 oz berry jam; 1/2 oz lemon juice. Dry...

Gather your martinis people, because this week we are having a classic debate about whether or not Clue is a good movie. Sara will be taking the affirmative, and Lydia will be taking the negative. But be warned that things quickly devolve into unhinged chaos....much like the movie itself as we cover this board-game-turned-film with three endings. Come for the movie, stay for the tangents. Starring Christopher Lloyd, Tim Curry, and Madeleine Khan. Cheers!

Join us as we sip a refresing watermelon agua fresca (and coconut limeaid) to discuss the equally as refreshing screwball comedy classic, the Lady Eve. This Preston Sturges masterpiece pristinely blends sophisticated banter with beloved slapstick pratfalls in an effortless, lovable, and laugh out loud comedy. This movie has it all, romance, swindling, ale, weird bonnets, fake British accents, and snakes. Starring our favorite golden age queen Barbara Stanwyck, and Henry Fonda. Cheers!

This week's hot takes are paired with the delicious Casino Cocktail as we discuss everything from the random rise of the Hollywood Remake, to Martin Scorsese's scathing review of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We even threw in a tangent about James Cameron's Avatar free of charge. Cheers! The Casino Cocktail: 1 part gin; 1 part Luxardo maraschino liqueur; 1/2 part lemon juice. Shake together with ice; strain into a Nick and Nora glass; garnish with two dashes of orange bitters and a Luxardo...

We drank a weird lemon cocktail for this episode (that is not worth repeating), but it was as chaotic as this screwball classic. It has everything from fast talking transatlantic accents, to the scandalous box office poison, to the ever so rare and important intercostal clavicle dinosaur bone. If you know, you know. Starring Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant. Cheers!

We drank a cocktail so good we forgot the name! Join us as we begin our Screwball Comedy month with a whole lotta laughs as we discuss Charlie Chaplin's iconic farewell to the beloved Tramp character in Modern Times.

Welcome to our first minisode (featuring our trusty glass of wine)! This week is full of hot takes and deep thoughts as we round up some current events in the film industry. We're talking about everything from Jennifer Hudson's EGOT to Tom Cruise's return as Maverick. We like modern film too! Cheers!

We're ending our classic classics month with one of the most blasé and glamorous movies to grace the silver screen...the iconic Breakfast at Tiffany's. This movie is very personal for us, so join us as we discuss the influence on fashion and pop culture, the differences between the film and the novella, and some of the scenes that require a more critical discussion in the twenty-first century. Starring Audrey Hepburn and George Peppard. Cheers!  This week we made a gin and tonic with our...
