Post-Movie
Emphatic for the cinematic!

Joining John and me this week is Boston Phoenix film critic and Albany Times-Union blogger Peg Aloi. Our objective: discuss the new Anthony Hopkins thriller The Rite and the Javier Bardem melodrama Biutiful. Then John and I discuss the Jason Statham/Ben Foster actioner The Mechanic - in which I (attempt to) explain The Mechanic's unintentional homoeroticism. Such fun.

We then offer our picks of the week. I recommend the new Blu-ray release of Martin Scorsese's Raging Bull. Peg says The Last Exorcism and the Red Riding Trilogy are worth your time. And John implores you to view Man in a Suitcase, which is also new to DVD.

We recorded live at Panera Bread, next to the Regal Fenway 13 Theater in Boston.

Enjoy!

The total running time is about 52:39

This week, John and I argue about Ivan Reitman's No Strings Attached and discuss Mike Leigh's Another Year.

And for our picks of the week, I say Irwin Allen's '60s TV series Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea is what you must watch, and John says The Mechanic, not the Jason Statham re-make but the 1972 original starring Charles Bronson is well worth your time.

The total running time is about 50:20.
