Scarface

Sixfive Media — Mon, 16 May 2022 12:00:00 +0000

Gangster films are a genre to themselves, and most of the films made today are period pieces. In 1932, Howard Hawkes directed a film loosely based on the contemporary, and infamous, gangster Al Capone. Produced by Howard Hughes, this film is considered one of the best and first gangster films, and one of the first to feature a Tommy gun. What will Kris and T.C. think about this film? Listen and find out!

S1 EP07 | To Kill a Mockingbird

Sixfive Media — Mon, 13 Jun 2022 12:00:00 +0000

Banning of books is still a major topic of discussion. To Kill a Mockingbird, the film based on the 1960 novel by Harper Lee, is often on top of the list of books to be banned. Why is that? Is the movie, made in 1962, as controversial? Kris and T.C. discuss that film as the Essentials series continues.

Love. Such a complicated thing. In the 1940 film starring Cary Grant, Kathreen Hepborn and James Stewert, love is central. Love and improving yourself. Well... more than that too. Look, we enjoyed this film a lot, but it's hard to put down many details. Listen as Chad and Kris review film number 38 on the list of the top 100 comedies of all time.
