DEAD EYED MILLENNIAL FILM CLUB

We here at the DEMFC love love. We can't get enough. All we want is love. All we need, is love. Does Christopher Nolans space/time space time epic escape the gravity of its intentions to become a film that WE love. Well, like the scientific underpinning of this wild and wacky thing, the answer is complicated. We can tell you one thing for sure. They don't love you like we love you. Like, C...

We've been busy during spooky season so we tried to sit down and relax and watch a fun little adaptation of a book we both enjoyed when we were younger, and what we got was a searing allegory for institutional rot, a metaphor for the futility of rebellion with a gun aimed at your head, the light that can emerge from even the most violent circumstances, and a film that definitely gets Mr. Beast...

If we've learned anything watching movies for 3 decades, it's that no one had it harder in the late 90's than any character Jennifer Connolly was playing. In the shocking conclusion to her "Standing on a Pier" trilogy, House of Sand and Fog, she is fighting for her family home and her dignity against Ben Kingsley in the best performance of his life. We discuss the nature of p...

If there's anything Paul Thomas Anderson loves to make movies about, it's buds. Just a bunch of buds doing bud stuff, just a gaggle of guys being guys. The Master is one of his best, a tale of two men unable to be honest with one another until it's truly too late while also serving as a rapturous examination of the damage living under mass delusion can do. Starring a cavalcade of peopl...

We here at the DEMFC are doers. We believe in fitness. We believe in the American Dream. We believe in true stories even when they're clearly fictionalized to the point of parody. We believe in Michael Bay's shockingly self aware, ever more relevant opus, Pain&Gain, a maniacal examination of the lengths people will go to in their quest to get a taste what they believe to be the better...

Podcasts are so important. How could they be so f*cking fragile? it's Part 3 of our deep dive into the year Robin Williams broke bad, and we've saved the best for last. Before Nolan became NOLAN, the last time Pacino was PACINO, there was the tightly wound thriller, Insomnia, a quintessential cat and mouse game where we answer the question, What if a Christopher Nolan movie had a well writ...

What is the highest desire of anyone living in the modern world? To be seen? To be loved? To be accepted? To craft the perfect life with the people we've exalted? What if those people aren't perfect? What if someone couldn't accept the shattering of that perfect image and sought to fix it at any cost, to create clarity through a queer kind of kintsugi? In Part Two of our dive into 2002...

To celebrate Robin Williams birthday and to mourn the anniversary of his unfortunate passing, we are going over one of the most interesting periods of his career, 2002, when he spent a year playing against type and breaking bad. This is Part 1 of a 3 Part Series. Hosted by Jason Hillman&Becky Franzel

The story of a boy and his golden ticket and how it transports him to a magical land of*checks notes*horrifying violence, misogyny, and too many murders to count at the hands of an irresponsible man who spews too many one liners. Surprisingly, not Willy Wonka.
