Three lifelong friends and film nerds talk about the new, the old, the best, the worst, – and everything in between – of films and TV.
So first off – thank you all for bearing with us during what we are calling the mid-season break of Now Screening and BOY ARE WE BACK WITH A BIG ONE. With us this week, star of the Apple/A24 documentary Boys State, Steven Garza!
Steve dropped by to answer all the juicy sundance questions, talk about his favorite films, and just vibe with the fellas.
Thanks to Steven for being such a great guest – truly this was a surreal experience.

After a few weeks of chaos the boys are back, discussing some of Japan's finest exports – Tampopo and Perfect Blue. Join us on the journey from happy fun wholesome Airplane-esque comedy, to the dark recesses of the internet.
This week the boys use their newfound Criterion Channel subscriptions to dive into the hard boiled noir thriller In A Lonely Place and the surrealist comedy 8 1/2. Black Lives Matter.
This week the boys are joined by number one Greta Gerwig stan Liz Webb. Join us for a great conversation about two great films, Lady Bird and Frances Ha!
This week, the boys don their finest oxfords, blazers, and salmon shorts as they dive deep into the Mind of The Zuck and the world of Ivy-League-tech-startup drama with The Social Network, a favorite from the 2010's and a generation defining story. Then the boys crack open Lee Chang-Dong's masterful thriller Burning – examining the narrative structure, character dynamics, and themes of this pure, unadulterated, slapper of a movie. Both of these films are available on Netflix for your viewing pleasure. Thank you as always for listening. Check back in two weeks when we discuss Jiro Dreams of Sushi and Millennium Actress when the Now Screening podcast heads to Japan (Digitally of course.)
