Francis Ford Coppola's epic Megalopolis is finally here! Clearly a work of a visionary artist the film divided TFT hosts Higgins and Loe more than most any other picture in the show’s multi-decade history. In this episode Le Corbusier and Calder are referenced, as are All the Pretty Horses, Gangs of New York, the need for narrative coherence and so much more. Enjoy.

Is Reagan a piece of such monumental, primitive art that it transcends its production to become the film of the year? That’s what one of the hosts of The Film Talk believes folks, and regardless of that, there is one sequence in this long-on-the-shelf movie that is so outside the traditions of modern cinema the it must be seen to be believed, or, at the very least, talked about. Enjoy.

That giant of acting, James Earl Jones, passed away yesterday at the age of 93. In this brief remembrance Jett and Gareth reflect on his beautiful range as an actor, talking Matewan, Dr. Strangelove, the Star Wars films, Field of Dreams and the little known television program Eastside/Westside. He will be missed greatly.
