Repertory Screenings 111: Wings of Desire

Our second movie about the sacred and the human in a row as we follow some angels around Berlin, feel the sadness and desires of time, and talk a lot about color vs black and white film! This movie is a straight up banger, please enjoy!Check out our letterboxd list if you’d like to see all the movies covered that way! Send us any email questions and comments about the movies we c

Repertory Screenings 110: Blue

We watch one of the most humbling films a person can sit through and then we have to actually talk about it! We do our best, but this is a hard one to cover. I hope people enjoy the episode anyway, and please go watch Blue, it’s just up on youtube and it really is that good.Check out our letterboxd list if you’d like to see all the movies covered that way!

Repertory Screenings 109: The Verdict

We’re back with this famous story of a bad lawyer made good that kind of splits the Repertory Screenings cast. Though not really. Because we all kind of agree, but it’s mostly a matter of degree. But I would call this the rare bad(ish) Repertory Screenings movie, and it gives us plenty to talk about.Check out our letterboxd list if you’d like to see all the movies covered tha

Repertory Screenings 108: High and Low

Well, we certainly didn’t mean to take that much time off between episodes! We’re finally back with our promised Kurosawa classic, and a bunch of other movies besides as we get back to the cinema (metaphorically) to watch some damn films!Check out our letterboxd list if you’d like to see all the movies covered that way!

Repertory Screenings 107: Welcome to the Dollhouse

We watch a 90s indie classic and talk about how much childhood sucks, the weirdness of age when you’re in school, the messiness of allegiances when you’re young, and much more with this funny, uncomfortable movie.

Repertory Screenings 106: Dark Waters

We watch a perfectly middle of the road movie and talk about aspiring to be a Michael Clayton, the burden of ripped from the headlines movie making, Mark Ruffalo being extremely fifty years old, and more!

Repertory Screenings 105: Solaris

We watch a science fiction classic and talk about slow cinema and the weird pissing matches between authors and directors and other directors. Solaris is pretty good! Also, a bunch of other movies get discussed.Check out our letterboxd list if you’d like to see all the movies covered that way!

Repertory Screenings 104: Don't Look Now

Sometimes you watch one of those movies where a bunch of disparate things fall into place and you realize some of your favorite directors definitely watched this movie and lost their minds about it. Don’t Look Now is definitely one such movie! We enjoy the foggy streets of Venice, Donald Sutherland’s cartoonish frown, psychic abilities and their pitfalls, and the strange dream

Repertory Screenings 103: Deep Cover

We head to the world of mood lighting, stupid cops, and the poetry of a life of crime as we all enjoy the rhythms and aesthetics of Deep Cover! This one’s a pretty silly movie, but I mean that in the kindest way possible. Truly the early 90s could just get away with a corny earnestness in genre work that is sorely missed.Check out our letterboxd list if you’d like to see all th

Repertory Screenings 102: Rome, Open City

One of the stone cold classics of cinema this week as we all watch our first Rossellini movie together and come away deeply impressed. Sometimes a movie is just a classic for a reason!
