Nobody Knows Anything

In the final episode of our min-season on sequels, we look at 2004’s The Bourne Supremacy, and consider the film’s relationship to the original. 

With the death of Catherine O’Hara, we wanted to re-release our episode on Beetlejuice, one of her iconic performances. 

In our mini season on sequels, we look back on Before Sunset starring Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy. Is it perhaps the most romantic film ending ever? 

As we near Season 4 of Nobody Knows Anything, we wanted to re-air some of our favorite episodes.  Brian, Leah, and Mike go deep undercover on this 2002 conspiracy classic, unpacking the awesomeness of Matt Damon along the way, while also asking if him and Franka Potente actually have chemistry. 

As we near Season 4 of Nobody Knows Anything, we wanted to re-air some of our favorite episodes.  In this episode, Leah, Mike, and Brian are asking you to jump off a train and spend the night talking about Before Sunrise. They talk Ethan Hawke's facial hair, gush over Julie Delpy, and wonder whether Brian’s that guy who constantly talks to you on an airplane when you just want to sleep. 

In the final episode of the season, we dive into 2014’s Gone Girl starring Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike. We’ll talk modern marriage, unreliable narrators, and whether Leah’s “Affleck is a bad actor” take holds up under intense media scrutiny. Finally, we’ll ask the question: what happens when the femme fatale finally wins?

In this episode, we look at 1988’s Dangerous Liaisons, a film that pits the dueling wits of Glenn Close and John Malkovitch against each other in a fight over love and power...and also, Keanu Reeves is there. Being strangely perfect in 18th century dress. But, back to the point: can the femme fatale ever win? 

This season, we look at femme fatales, beginning with 1945's Leave Her to Heaven , which might be one of the oddest, most unsettling films we've ever talked about. Starring Gene Tierney and Cornell Wilde, you'll never look at marriage, long horse rides, or canoes the same way again.  You can find it on YouTube if you want to watch along.

It’s Halloween, and for a bonus episode, Leah, Mike, and Brian summon a perverted trickster demon to rid their house of yuppies with 1988’s Beetlejuice. They discuss the genius of Catherine O’Hara, whether Michael Keaton is annoying or brilliant, and how much Brian's heart melted at the beauty of a pregnant Helena Bonham Carter.  

This week, Leah, Mike, & Brian channel teenage angst with Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet. They talk of DiCaprio’s preternatural beauty, Paul Rudd’s Shakespearean chops, and whether Leah’s house is possessed by a malevolent Casio watch.

This week, Leah, Mike, and Brian go on the run with Wes Anderson’s Bottle Rocket. They talk about the merits of bookstore heists and screwdriver punch-ups, while Brian breaks down James Caan’s martial arts moves.  Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!
