Audio commentaries are the embryonic form of podcasting, and this show looks at the art of filmmaking through the greatest of these tracks. From comedy to drama, live-action to animation, good and bad, we run the gamut of cinema in a lighthearted, hopefully enlightening fashion. It’s the only commentary-centric show that matters because it’s the only one that exists. (As far as we know.)

#088: Once Upon a Time in the West with Tom Lorenzo
For our eighty-eighth episode, we’re joined by friend of the show and newly-minted Three Timers Club member Tom Lorenzo (“You’re Missing Out” podcast) for a discussion of the star-studded audio commentary for Sergio Leone’s magnum opus, the 1968 spaghetti western “Once Upon a Time in the West”. Among the things discussed: grungy close-ups and epic wide shots, homages in “Back to the Future”, giving Dario Argento his training wheels, Leone’s place in the cinematic canon, the plusses and minuses of Kino Lorber’s film noir box-sets, Harmonica: the real man with no name, sound as music, and so much more.
Ryan’s Recommendations: “21 Jump Street” (2012), “22 Jump Street” (2014), and “The Lego Batman Movie” (2017)
