Jackie and Greg step back in time to feudal Japan for Kenji Mizoguchi's SANSHO THE BAILIFF from 1954.

La Dolce Vita [1960]
Jackie and Greg join the swinging parties of 1960s Rome for Federico Fellini's LA DOLCE VITA. Topics of discussion include the film's decadence, sex and celebrity as the new religion, how it marked a transition for Fellini from the more grounded films of the 1950s into his more bombastic work, and the amount of visual detail he packs into the film to help tell his story.

Wild Strawberries [1957]
Jackie and Greg take a drive down memory lane for their discussion of Ingmar Bergman's WILD STRAWBERRIES from 1957. Topics of discussion include the film's sentimentality, where it sits in Bergman's filmography, how its most powerful moments make up for its shortcomings, the influence of Dickens and THE PHANTOM CARRIAGE, and why it'll endure for generations to come.

Modern Times [1936] with Aaron Strand
Jackie and Greg are joined by Aaron Strand of the Behind the Slate podcast in their discussion of Charlie Chaplin's MODERN TIMES from 1936.

Customer Reviews
My absolute favorite podcast
Seeing that Greg and Jackie have dropped a new podcast is one of the true highlights of my week. They are such great hosts and personalities, and have added much joy to much journey through the S&S 250 list. I wish Greg were a bit nicer to Godard, but c’est la vie. Thanks for all your hard work J&G! Your friend Marshall
Come for the movies! Stay for the hosts!
We’ve all been there: we have finally found movies that we want to hear talked about and the hosts ruin the whole thing. Not the case here! Greg and Jackie are amazing and they bounce off each other really well and they make it worth listening. A Mike Nichols and Elaine May duo in the making.
I’m glad this podcast exists
I appreciate the thought that goes into each episode. Both hosts are a joy to listen to. I love how much they both love film. Each episode ends I feel excited to go watch more movies.
