Episodes take a deep dive into a classic film and its legacy in the first half, then compare and contrast that film with a modern successor in the second. Hosted and produced by Genevieve Koski, Keith Phipps, Tasha Robinson and Scott Tobias.

While the new CONCLAVE concerns the election of a new pope, its intrigue, backstabbing, and backroom deals have many echoes in secular politics, in particular those found in 1964’s THE BEST MAN. Directed by Franklin J. Schaffner and written by Gore Vidal adapting his own stage play, the film’s depiction of the behind-the-scenes machinations involve…

Spooky season continues on The Brum Picture Show this week as we delve into the topic of true crime on film! We’ll be discussing our favourite true crime inspired films, society’s obsession with grisly murders, and Hollywood’s history of turning tragedy into entertainment. Alongside a disproportionate number of references to Mark Ruffalo, we’ll als…

Thank you for spending your Halloween season with us as we enjoyed discussing this masterpiece of a series ⁠⁠⁠Phil Rood Art⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Who Is On First podcast⁠⁠ ⁠austinandphil@gmail.com…

In its attempt to capture the chaotic comedic alchemy leading up to the first-ever SNL broadcast, Jason Reitman’s SATURDAY NIGHT is carrying the weight of the show’s nearly 50-year legacy and its personification in protagonist Lorne Michaels. Whether it manages to get off the ground despite that is up for debate in the first half of this week’s dis…

Apologies are in order as our audio is not up to par this episode. We (and by "we", I mean "Phil) did not realize that the mic settings were wrong and the audio was only picked up by Phil's laptop mic. The audio is a little tough to hear and for that, I (Phil) am very sorry. I will try to dot the T's and cross the I's better in the future. I hope d…

Capturing the tense hours leading to a pivotal moment in live TV history, the new SATURDAY NIGHT is defined by a looming deadline that reminded us of another New York-based all-nighter captured on film: D.A. Pennebaker’s 1970 TV pilot turned documentary film ORIGINAL CAST ALBUM: COMPANY. Despite being less than an hour long, the fly-on-the-wall doc…

Screen B14 and Another Bite of the Cherry are teaming up to screen A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, an Iranian Vampire Western, so we thought we’d sink our teeth into the subject of movie vampires this week! We’ll be covering over 100 years of vampires in cinema, from the grotesque and gnarly to the glittery and well groomed. We'll be choosing our…

The new Dreamworks animated feature THE WILD ROBOT is partially about the struggles of parenthood, partially about the joys of community, and the larger idea bridging those two parts — that of being more than you were “programmed” to be — is also what links it most directly to Brad Bird’s THE IRON GIANT. But there’s a lot more going on in THE WILD …

It’s understandable that new Dreamworks feature THE WILD ROBOT pulls some of its source code from THE IRON GIANT, considering the latter’s towering reputation as one of the greatest animated films ever, robot protagonist or otherwise. But the enduring legacy of Brad Bird’s debut feature was far from assured when it blipped through theaters back in …

It’s the 25th episode of The Brum Picture Show! We thought we’d celebrate this momentous occasion by not mentioning the recently released Joker: Folie à Deux, not even in passing. We will however be discussing our favourite Anti-heroes in films, the morally dubious protagonists of the big screen who we love to hate, or hate to love. We’ll be discus…

The guys are breaking down the show episode by episode so please watch along with us as we share our thoughts on this unique limited series. Who Is On First Phil's Blog Child Star Achewillow Book…

Azazel Jacobs’ HIS THREE DAUGHTERS is, like Tamara Jenkins’ THE SAVAGES, a film about the heartbreaking experience of caring for an aging parent, but even more so it is, also like the other film in the pairing, about adult siblings reuniting and renegotiating their relationships under those fraught conditions. We’re decidedly more mixed on Jacobs’ …

Caring for an elderly or infirm parent is a common experience that is less commonly depicted on screen, particularly with a comedic bent, which is why Azazal Jacobs’ new HIS THREE DAUGHTERS inspired us to revisit the 2007 dramedy THE SAVAGES, which writer-director Tamara Jenkins drew from her own experiences dealing with a father with dementia. Muc…

The spooky season is on its way, so on this week’s show we thought we’d talk about everyone’s favourite frizzy-haired Disney animator turned goth poster-boy, Tim Burton. We’ll be discussing films from his illustrious career, from the nightmarish in a good way to the nightmarish in a bad way (we’re looking at you Alice in Wonderland). Alongside our …

Jeremy Saulnier’s REBEL RIDGE puts a distinctly 2020s spin on the one-man army formula established in the era-defining ‘80s action hit FIRST BLOOD, resulting in a film with more nuance, less firepower, and equal amounts of ass-kicking. We parse that equation a bit more in-depth in our spoiler-light discussion of REBEL RIDGE, before bringing back FI…

Genre specialist Jeremy Saulnier’s latest banger, REBEL RIDGE, owes an obvious debt to the film that kicked off Sylvester Stallone’s second long-running franchise, 1982’s FIRST BLOOD, but the two films are of very different eras with very different core concerns about policing in America. So this week we’re focusing on the shadow of Vietnam that fa…

Screen B14 and The Mockingbird Cinema are teaming up again to screen Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters, so we thought we’d discuss its director this week. That’s right, it’s Hollywood’s favourite controversial Uncle, Paul Schrader! Whilst perhaps most famous for bringing the world Taxi Driver and American Gigolo, he has had a prolific career which w…

Fede Álvarez’s ALIEN: ROMULUS is at its core an act of homage to the larger franchise, but is that a feature, a bug, or both? That’s a question we attempt to reconcile in our discussion of Álvarez’s acid-blood-soaked film, before comparing how this late-stage sequel compares with the franchise’s original sequel, James Cameron’s ALIENS, in iterating…
