A look at three different versions of the rich and crazy over the eras to see what we pity, what we covet, and what would ultimately drive us nuts as well.

The Ark of Lilburn is a testament to how the American system often destroys the dreams of American citizens. It’s a real life Fitzcarraldo with southern accents and a business owner who’s permanently attached to his nicotine vape.

For someone looking for a community of their own, music scenes become a home where the lack of one is being felt. Documentaries Poly Styrene: I Am A Cliche and Box of Rain dive into the worlds of punk and deadheads with a focus on finding a sense of belonging.

Join Carlo as he “takes a bite outta” all of the movies that didn’t come out in 2021 he’s watched!

For the first time in ages, Jenna found there was just so many movies to like from 2021 that she had to actively find reasons to not include some of her favorites of the year. Long live 2021! (Well, for movies only, it was kinda shitty otherwise.)

It’s Veronica’s year end list of her favorite new and old movie watches for 2021. From Hollywood fare like Dune and Nightmare Alley all the way down to A24’s Lamb and Muriel's Wedding.

Emmy award-winning filmmaker Lynn Novick talks with Jenna about her latest documentary Hemingway, including how to read his work, the prison of his masculinity and Hemingway’s relevancy for modern day audiences. They also touch upon being a female filmmaker and her collaborations with Ken Burns.

At a time when giving toxic male personalities a second look may feel almost like a step backwards, Hemingway makes a strong case for trying. Novick and Burns tackle Hemingway's troubled legacy by looking at his life through his wives, working to separate the myth from the decidedly more interesting man.

For this 3rd Annual Back Rowsie awards we are keeping it loose and riffing on all that the world of cinema in 2020 had to offer us. We're talkin' movies, we're talkin' documentaries, we're talkin'... Wesley Snipes movies? Doctor Sleep? Making funny eyyy ohhhhh New Yawk accents? Why not. 2020 broke us.

There’s no number attached to Veronica’s “best of” list for 2020. This year, she’ll mention as many movies as she can remember seeing and liking well enough because, well, with theaters closed it was kind of hard for her to see much of anything. Dreaming of you movie theaters, xoxo come back soon.

A great documentary, skillful character studies and a handful of surprisingly original biopics kept 2020 afloat for Jenna. Here’s hoping this under appreciated cinematic year, full of intriguing introspective visions, is the shape of things to come for the decade.

Capitalism, loneliness and purity is the name of the japanese idol game–especially as told through Tokyo Idols and Perfect Blue. Carlo and Jenna discuss these themes in depth as they attempt to navigate the darker aspects of a society they otherwise tend to admire.

Veronica talks with director Amy Goldstein on her new intimate documentary about musician Kate Nash. They discuss shooting the film, as well as Amy’s experiences, both fun and frustrating, working as a woman in the film industry.

Join Dan, Carlo, Jenna and Veronica as they hold their annual Back Rowsie awards, this time for the best films of the decade. From Best Picture to Best Movie I Thought Sucked But Later Realized Was Phenomenal, don’t miss out on the fun and excitement.

Jenna rejects all your parasites, irishmen, gems uncut and once upon a times for a list of films that leans heavily on character development and themes of redemption.

Dan’s top film discoveries of 2019 include made for TV movies, found footage, documentaries about dating objects, arthouse slashers and overlooked 1990s dramas–it’s a cornucopia of the strange and great!

The fetishization of the family unit is only now beginning to get picked apart as people are becoming more honest and aware of the skewed, unfair dynamics that can play out within an insular group. Veronica takes a look at Captain Fantastic, The Wolfpack, The Midnight Swim and We Are What We Are.

Staring into the realm of existential horror can actually be quite liberating, and there’s no surer cure for deep-rooted anxiety than fully embracing nihilism and toasting the end of the world. Join me as we take a closer look at First Reformed, Arlington Road and In The Intense Now / No Intenso Agora.

Veronica takes a look at I, Tonya and Amy in this latest double feature with a focus on celebrity female anxiety as its theme.

An engaging documentary about a woman who went from vaudeville, to radio, to variety shows, to Broadway, to television, to game shows, to stage shows, to voice overs and still is looking for more work in her ninties.
