Barry Lyndon (1975) 1:07:37

1:07:37

This week, we walk through the beautiful, yet somehow grotesque world of: Barry Lyndon . This slow, meandering film offers quite a challenge for Chris and Travis—two diehard Stanley Kubrick fans—as they navigate through the movie’s commentary on ambition, as they trek the gorgeous landscapes that surround Barry’s sill existence, as they wonder if Kubrick truly did enough to bring his existential reflections to life.

This week, we traverse the psychological labyrinth known as: The Silence of the Lambs . We revisit this classic thriller and discuss its contents, finding a narrative in Clarice’s struggle to move on, to form an identity outside her trauma, to endure the psychiatric exercises of the one and only Hannibal Lecter.

This week, we delve into one of the most confounding movies ever: Synecdoche, New York . And we’re here to say the movie, while surreal and outlandish and subversive, is actually much simpler than it seems.

This week, we share a winding, whirling discussion about the 1955 classic: Rebel Without a Cause . What follows isn’t just a thematic breakdown of the movie’s commentary on post-war generational tensions, but a macro discussion about the state of modern movies and how far we’ve come from the simple-yet-impactful cinematic eye of directors like Nicholas Ray.

This week, we discuss the baseball classic: The Natural . It used to be one of Chris’s favorite movies—but does it still hold up? And is Travis impressed at all upon first watch?

This week, we make everybody mad by defending the much-maligned superhero masterpiece: Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

This week on the Film Colossus podcast, we navigate the murky waters of religious hysteria with the 2024 Sydney Sweeney nun flick: Immaculate . Chris and Travis are at odds with what they find to be a clunky, stifling experience that never quite finds its footing and pales in comparison to much better horror films.

This week, we celebrate Dune —no, not that Dune . We’re talking about that old polarizing one that David Lynch directed. We discuss everything that’s keeping 1984’s Dune from achieving Frank Herbert’s ultimate intent with the novel, as well as the idiosyncrasies that allow Lynch’s existential tale about the self to shine in enigmatic, bizarrely beautiful ways.
