Everyday Liminality

Not all Christmas classics are great. But we think we can fix this one.

Few movies are as stark and haunting as No Country For Old Men. 

Like Shakespeare? Neither do we. But we love the high school cult classic 10 Things I Hate About You, based off of Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew.

Whiplash is everything a movie should be: well-shot, brilliantly acted, compelling, unique, and most of all, perfectly written. The ending may leave the viewer wanting from a character growth standpoint, but you can't deny how absolutely pitch perfect it is.

Seriously. Is Marisa Tomei not the absolute greatest? Nothing more needs to be said.

What can we say? Gladiator is just a great movie. Is it flawed? Yeah, but who cares?

Few movies have quite the backstory as Good Will Hunting. Written by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck because they weren't getting cast in any roles, it launched multiple careers, won Robin Williams his only Oscar, and wedged itself into our minds as one of the most iconic movies of the past 30 years. By no means the best or most popular, who doesn't know the story of the wicked smart janitor that solves the math problem on the whiteboard?

It's difficult to beat the comedic stylings of Robin Williams, and Good Morning Vietnam undoubtedly has funny moments. But is it a comedy? Frs. Casey and Tito discuss.
