Film Sibs

The sibs battle over whether this film is an unforgivable stinker or has some redeeming qualities. Kidding! But Shannon basically hated it. Almost as much as the film itself hates women. Prescient political satire or just encouraging folks to "do their own research?" Tristan will never be forgiven for this choice.

The sibs discuss Shannon's second pick, Mike Nichols' The Birdcage. Is there an accent Hank Azaria can't do? Or rather, an accent he shouldn't do?? John Wayne's walk, the absurdity of modern life and politics, and the integral question of IS SOUP AN ENTREE? are all addressed here.

The admittedly tired sibs dive into Scorsese's 2019 crime epic, The Irishman. Bad accents abound and yes, they are still bringing up Dune 2. BUT they ultimately decide that this is a very cozy and soothing film. We stan Raisin Man Pesci and his butt nose.

The sibs settle in to discuss Billy Wilder's 1950 noir classic, Sunset Boulevard! Tangents and references about Dune 2 are inevitable, in addition to a lively discussion where Shannon gets so excited she loses her words, Tristan says he would lie to Betty to be with her, and both sibs try out their 1950's voiceover voice.

The film sibs (Shannon and Tristan) discuss why we're here and Tristan's first pick of a favorite film - 2023's horror breakout Talk To Me. **Content Warning** Topics include mentions of suicide.
