CG -S2E3: Hail Caesar
Friday Jul 30, 2021
Friday Jul 30, 2021
Today we are joined by our first repeat guest: Dr. Bill Tullius. That's right, our favorite philosophy professor is here to talk about another movie! Today's flick is Hail Caesar, the 2016 Coen Brother's movie staring...everyone. Seriously, just shout out the first Hollywood celebrity that pops into your head and--BAM!--there's a 75% chance they are in this movie.
This is a hysterical day-in-the-life tale about a Golden-Era Hollywood fixer as he struggles to reign in entitled celebrities and communist screenwriters. You owe it to yourself to watch it.
And in case some part of you is still not convinced that Joel and Ethan Coen are the greatest film-making duo in history, be sure to watch this episode of Every Frame a Painting*: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UE3jz_O_EM
*While your at it, watch every episode of Every Frame a Painting. It would take you only three and a half hours to watch all 28 episodes and by the end you would have a better knowledge and appreciation of film than most college level film courses could every hope to give you. https://www.youtube.com/c/everyframeapainting/videos

CG -S2E1: Doctor Sleep
Friday Jul 16, 2021
Friday Jul 16, 2021
Season 2, Episode 1 is here!
Now I may be biased but I think we're are starting with a good one Doctor Sleep: Director's Cut. That's right, the 2019 sequel to the Shining, directed by Mike Flanagan and based on the novel by Steven King (duh).
Movies like this is what Cinema Gush is all about. This movie was a flop. Nobody saw it. And who could blame them? Making a sequel to Shining is--on the surface--a terrible idea! But here's the thing: this movie is incredibly good. Dare I say, maybe even better than the original? I mean, this one even got long-standing horror hold-out Nic Lishko to even seek out other horror movies! That's no small feat!
Yes it's scary. No doubt about it. But it is also a deeply inspiring movie. One that if you give it a shot, I'm sure it will become one of your favorites.
One disclaimer, make sure you watch the Director's Cut. By all accounts, it is a vastly superior movie. You can find it on HBO Max or buy it on Amazon Prime. Trust me, it's worth it!
Also, make sure to watch this interview with Steven King and Mike Flanagan. It's a great primer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxT6jSJmNi0
