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
It's On The List
#32: A Very Gerry Christmas
Happy holidays to the It's On the List groupies - we've got a Christmas film double feature for you that will take you to both ends of the Christmas film spectrum: first, we're talking about Alexander Payne's latest film The Holdovers (2023), following it up with a very different sort of holiday story in Bob Clark's Black Christmas (1974). Discussed are the ways in which these films find originality within traditional sorts of stories, why the saccharine charms of The Holdovers are totally effective, and why Black Christmas is still really fucking scary almost 50 years later. Contains spoilers for both films.
