Eric Trommater, Erin Brown, Nicole de Meneses and Jennifer Trujillo end their month-long look at horror with Tomas Alfredson's (The Snowman and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy) 2008 adaptation of John Ajvide Lindqvist's vampire novel "Let the Right One In," set in snowy Sweden. Later remade by Matt Reeves, the original drew a mixed reaction from Eric and Erin while Nicole and Jennifer found it a masterfully done work that mixed genuine scares with a queer romance and a coming of age story.
Nicole De Meneses is a writer-director-producer and runs Dark Rainbow Films.

Eric Trommater and Erin Brown are joined by Jennifer Trujillo of The Gilbert Baker Film Festival and "Vampire Director" Nicole de Meneses to discuss one of Nicole's favorite films, "Near Dark" (1987). Coming on the heels of our month long look at women behind the camera, we got a chance to celebrate both Spooky-Season and Katherine Bigalow, the first woman to ever win an Academy Award for best director.
Part Vampire film, part Western, part Romance, "Near Dark" stars Adrian Pasdar as Caleb Colton, Jenny Wright as Mae, Lance Henriksen as Jesse Hooker, Bill Paxton as Severen and Jenette Goldstein as Diamondback.
We also took a moment to remember our dear friend Mark Redfield who passed away just hours before we recorded the episode.

Eric Trommater and Erin Brown are joined by Nicole de Meneses, who is currently making her own vampire film, and Jennifer Trujillo, who runs the Gilbert Baker Film Festival.
At issue is Carl Theodore Dreyer's "Vampyr," a strange choice from the director of "The Passion of Joan of Arc," "Ordet" and "Day of Wrath." Opinions varied on the film but it was a fun discussion with a lot of respectful disagreement. Oh, and Taylor Swift somehow gets a mention.

A group called CPR Agency for MK2 had our original video pulled from YouTube for an alleged Copyright violation. They, most likely, mistook the video for the actual film. Just in case we re-edited the episode, taking out approximately one minute and seven seconds of sound clips from the film.
Eric Trommater, Erin Brown and Sila Blume wrap up their month long look at great women behind the camera with Agnes Varda's classic look at 90 minutes in the life of Cléo. Besides serving as a wonderful travelogue of 1960's Paris, the film serves as a haunting vision of the grip of death and the power of living.
The film also features a short silent film featuring Jean Luc Goddard himself (in his signature dark sunglasses) as well as a cameo from composer Michel Legrand.

This week's bonus episode centers on Dr. Ernesto Todd Mireles's "War of the Flea: Fight for Xicano Studies," a documentary film detailing the story of Chicano students who fought for a Xicano/Latino Studies program at Michigan State University. Dr. Mireles holds a PhD in American Studies from Michigan State University. He is the author of the book "Insurgent Aztlán (Asst-lan): The Liberating Power of Cultural Resistance," which won a 2020 International Latino Book Award. He has served as faculty in the Ethnic Studies department at Northern Arizona University and co-director of the Social Justice and Community Organizing Masters program at Prescott College. On a side note, he was also my Editor and Chief at a Community College Newspaper called The Lookout in 1991, when I served as the Arts and Leisure Editor there, oh so many years ago.

Eric Trommater and Sila Blume are joined by a special guest as they try and unpack Luis Buñuel's 1930 Surrealist masterpiece ""L'Âge d'or, (The Golden Age)."
Dr. Ernesto "Todd" Mireles is an award-winning author, filmmaker, educator, and a lifelong activist and organizer in the Xicano movement. Most recently, he was a faculty member in Ethnic Studies at Northern Arizona University and holds the position of National Secretary of the Partido Nacional de la Raza Unida.
He begins his assessment with a quote from Roland Barthes' 1967 essay, "The Death of the Author:"
"All writing is a critique of reality." This sends the episode spiraling into, yet another, debate on Post-Structuralism with Dr. Mireles taking a pro stance and Eric and Sila against. Eric, however, gives himself the final word (because it's his show).
The rest of the episode is a scene by scene unpacking of Buñuel's film and what, if anything, these segments "mean."

Erin Brown and Eric Trommater continue their month long look at women behind the camera. This time it's director Lina Wermüller who, despite her name, is an Italian, and her 1975 black comedy "Seven Beauties." One of many films Wertmüller made with leading man Giancarlo Giannini, the film puts its hero, Pasqualino, through the wringer, including a long stay in Concentration Camp during The Second World War.
After a loving parody of the film's opening montage (and the repeated refrain of Oh Yeah!) Erin and Eric discussed what it was that made Wertmüller's work so attractive to male film critics in the middle 1970's but left so many (although not all) of their feminist cohorts more than a bit cold.
The episode features a clip from Martin Scorsese on Wertmüller. Stick around for the Easter Egg at the end of the episode featuring a clip from the late 'Macho Man' Randy Savage.

Eric Trommater, Erin Brown and Sila Blume discuss Chantel Ackerman's 1975 film "Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles." Named the Best Film of All Time in 2022 by Sight and Sound Magazine's poll of filmmakers, critics and influencers. The movie is a slow, methodical, look at three days in the life of a housewife played by Delphine Seyrig.
We also took the opportunity to make our own top ten lists of the best movies ever made, just in case Sight & Sound ever calls us. Not holding our breath on that.

Director Céline Sciamma's 18th century sapphic love story can be enjoyed simply for the beauty of it's images, the great performances by Noémie Merlant, Adèle Haenel and Luàna Bajrami, or as an all too human tale of love and loss. It was also seen as a great step forward in queer representation on screen and the ability of openly gay women to tell their own stories.
The normal panel of Eric Trommater, Sila Blume and Erin Brown were augmented this week by four diverse voices within the queer women's film world.

"Some men think the Earth is round, others think it flat; it is a matter capable of question. But if it is flat, will the King's command make it round?

In the process Thomas More loses his head but doesn't go down without a fight.
Directed by: Fred Zimmerman. Starring: Paul Scofield as Thomas More, John Hurt as Richard Rich, Robert Shaw as Henry VIII and Orson Welles as Cardinal Wolsey.

We round off our trilogy of Italian comedies with Erin Brown and Eric Trommater' s discussion of Marco Bellochio's 1967 film "China is Near," focusing on class struggle within the Italian Socialist party.
With cinematography Tonino Delli Colli, editing by Roberto Perpignani, and music by Ennio Morricone, it also serves as an early look at some of the film industry's great craftsman who would shape the next 50 years of international cinema.

Eric Trommater, Sila Blume and Erin Brown discuss commedia all’italiana and Mario Monicelli's 1963 film "The Organizer." The film stars Marcello Mastroianni as a High School teacher turned labor organizer in Turin at the end of the 19th century. With a screenplay by Age & Scarpelli and cinematography by Giuseppe Rotunno the film should have been a classic in both Italian Comedy and Neo-Realism but instead was almost forgotten until a restored version appeared in 2012.
