    114 - We Drove Six Hours To See The TV Glow

    Welcome to Bad Dad Rad Dad, where Kylie and Elliott talk about the movies they watch each week while searching for better cinematic dads. Along the way, they feel complicated about a big budget A24 film, celebrate National Canadian Film Day, see the Canadian premiere of their most anticipated movie of the year, experience the uncanniness of seeing their own city on screen, and watch a film that just isn't for them (even if it is for other people).
    This week’s movies are: Civil War (2024), I Used To Be Funny (2024), I Saw The TV Glow (2024), Before I Change My Mind (2022), and Marketa Lazarová (1967).

    The Rad Wrap: Slowed Down Sundays 2024

    The Rad Wrap: Slowed Down Sundays 2024

    Welcome to The Rad Wrap: a series on series, where Kylie and Elliott explore films with a common thread. In this episode, they are joined by their friend and fellow educator Thomas Wishloff. They reflect on Thomas's Metro Cinema series Slowed Down Sundays and the four films in this year's curation. Along the way, they ask what it means to have faith in things, discuss a movie worth writing a master's thesis on, wish for cinema debrief spaces, and think about what lens to watch a film through.
    The films in Slowed Down Sundays 2024 are: Solaris (1972), A Brighter Summer Day (1991), I Do Not Care If We Go Down In History As Barbarians (2018), and Once Upon A Time In Anatolia (2018).

    The Rad Wrap: Twin Peaks

    The Rad Wrap: Twin Peaks

    Welcome to The Rad Wrap: a series on series, where Kylie and Elliott explore films with a common thread. In this very special episode, they reflect on one of their favourite pieces of art: Twin Peaks. Along the way, they hold no garmonbozia back while they reflect on the nature of duality, insist that trying to capture Twin Peaks in a genre is pointless, admire the radical act of showing the reality of Laura Palmer, and feel eternally grateful for Kyle MacLachlan and The Return.
    The pieces in the series are: Twin Peaks (1990-1991), Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me (1992), and Twin Peaks: The Return (2017).
    Watch Lily Simpson's "The Iconic Transness of Twin Peaks" and Twin Perfect's analysis of the series.
