This episode marks the first in a brand new monthly series: Gimme Three A - Z. Each month, Bella and Nick will go through each letter of the alphabet and suggest one film that they love and think everybody should have on their watchlist. We also get feedback and suggestions from you, our audience. 

This month: the letter A!

  • We open with a submission from one of our listeners, Adriana Lopez Lacen, who suggested the Chris Columbus directorial debut, Adventures in Babysitting, starring Elizabeth Shue. 
  • Bella submitted the impactful, relatable, and emotionally-charged Academy Award-winning film Another Round
  • Nick submitted an indie darling from 2003, Paul Giamatti plays comic book writer Harvey Pekar in American Splendor

Have you seen these films? What’d you think of them? 

And don’t be shy - submit your suggestions for next month, what film do you love that starts with the letter B?
