Our 1984 journey continues with what is arguably the crown jewel of such an excellent movie year: Jim Jarmusch’s Stranger Than Paradise.
Karlokino couldn’t have found a better guest discuss the film with, the eloquent Marcus Pinn, who matches his admiration for Jim Jarmusch. They also touch upon his other work and the journey of discovery, and they bring up Ghost Dog a few times.
In our Appetizers (11:00), Karlo asks Marcus what’s the status of Zebras in America, and what he’s been listening to lately.

Glorious Day! We are back to discuss another 1984 banger in John Cassavetes’ Love Streams. This was a film we had been planning to discuss but then the recent event of Gena Rowlands’ passing made it timely. We are joined by first time guest, Felicia Maroni. In the apps, we discuss her Letterboxd Top Four, the Toronto Film Scene, and talk about Cassavetes’ body of work and what characterizes his filmmaking.
(54:00) And in our main course, we discuss Love Streams, and what it means to exuberantly social and frank with your emotions.
(2:16:00) And as per usual, we end with the answer of is this a keeper? And our Wine Pairings.

Follow Madeline on Letterboxd @mgallantb
For our Apps, we get to know Madeline a little better and what’s behind her compulsion to review every movie she logs on Letterboxd, her Top 4 Directors (of that current moment), defining 'Lynchy', and a little digression into Duolingo…
For the Main Course (1:09:30), we dive into Alain Resnais’ heady, philosophical Love Unto Death (L'amour à mort), and try to come to grips with what it all could mean.
Then we finish off with Is 'This A Keeper?' and our Wine Pairings (2:29:00).
