  • Stalag 17
    Apr 29 2024
    When Jason reached out and asked me, retired and also dead crooner, Dean Martin, to say a few words about Stalag 17, I was confused, as I had nothin' to do with the picture, jack. I wasn't even in the service for very long, myself. Hernia, they told me. It was at that point that he got real hot and some words flew around and we settled things with a bottle of the good stuff. Eventually, I was able to sneak out after agreeing to write this. I'm nothing if not a man of my word. So, buddy-o, lemme set you straight: this is a heck of a picture. What ain't straight was Billy Holden's driving, which we saw to tragic effect. That ain't funny, that's just a fact, jack. So, watch it and listen to this podcast thing about it? I don't care. I did my part. I'm off to the ghost bar, baby. Next week: It's gonna get biblical! Questions? Comments? Suggestions?

  • Days of Glory
    Apr 22 2024
    Back to the list this week as the Two Dudes with Attitudes talk all about Days of Glory, a film that exposes the racism of the French troops as they treated their colonial soldiers like garbage during WWII. The guys debate the true feelings of Sgt. Martinez, the real-life consequences resulting from the film's release, the ultimate act of disrespect and much more. Plus: a very special friend comes back to visit Jason. Next week: Off to prison! Questions? Comments? Suggestions?

  • Hitler's Madman
    Apr 15 2024
    Reinhard Heydrich sucks. Like real bad. Like he's in blue ribbon contention at the Nazi 4H show. You know... where kids raise Nazis themselves and show them off at the Exhibition before sending them off to slaughter as a character-building exercise? We're getting off track here. Big picture: He sucked so bad that people killed him. He needed killin', sure, but it also cost the world the village of Lidice. Is this the ultimate portrayal of this man's fall? Or little more than a well-intentioned propaganda film? Jason and Brendan, as usual, are happy to tell you. Next week: Back to the list! Questions? Comments? Suggestions?

  • Heartbreak Ridge
    Apr 8 2024
    This week, the fellas take in another Clint Eastwood joint but this one likely forgotten in the annals of time - Heartbreak Ridge. The fellas talk all about the vintage 80s movie homophobia (though even more than you might expect), comparisons to Stripes, Stitch Jones, the better-than-usual romance subplot and much more.

  • Gettysburg
    Apr 1 2024
    Brendan's mentor and dear personal friend Ronny Maxwell makes a big blue-gray splash in 1993's Gettysburg: the story of the pivotal American Civil War battle and the various monologues and wistful bittersweet remembrances that changed a nation. Ronny gives the war a grandeur steeped in myth and Lost Cause attitudes (though nowhere near its embarrassing sequel Gods and Generals) and some of the most careless beard-work in recent memory. Jason monologues, Brendan listens and in the end, they both die valiantly in the service of different dreams (Editor's Note: they do not die). Next week: Eastwood drills! Questions? Comments?

  • The Zone of Interest
    Mar 18 2024
    Jonathan Glazer returns to the fold on this week's special presentation! Not content with the worlds of sexy criminal maniacs and sexy alien maniacs, the venerable director turns his sights on those decidedly unsexy, genocidal maniacs - The Nazis with 2023's The Zone of Interest! The banality of evil - a murder machine run by boring people in a boring society shutting out the horrors around them either by learned ignorance or sheer force of will. Nazis suck. Next week: Thomas Mapother Cruise makes his debut on the podcast! Questions? Comments? Suggestions?
