It's On The List
Gerry and Sammy talk about movies. Old, new, bad, good, and everything in between. Generally, two films that are loosely connected in some form or fashion will be discussed in each episode, but the boys will divert from this format to rank the filmographies of certain directors, discuss end-of-the-year best-of lists, etc. Come listen to the two smartest people in the world deliver their objectively correct analyses on a variety of films. Hosts: Gerry Hartman, Sammy Ray. Theme song produced by Eric Powell

The boys get bougie with a double feature of growing class tensions, frivolous rich folks, faux-transgression, and tall aspect ratios. That's right, Gerry and Sammy are talking about Emerald Fennell's latest, Saltburn (2023), paired with Jean Renoir's classic The Rules of the Game (1939). They dive into the films' various stylistic approaches to their stories of class violence, Emerald Fennell's place in the contemporary film scene, and the WWII context of Jean Renoir's masterpiece. Contains spoilers for both films.
