Ep 20 // Round 4 Picks!
It's Alicia's turn to pick first as we choose which films we're watching in the fourth round of the Stereoactive Movie Club!
We're discussing some of the greatest movies ever made. Who says? Sight And Sound magazine says. Every 10 years, since 1952, the publication has surveyed critics and directors to determine which films might be considered the best. The five film-loving friends take turns picking movies that have appeared on the list and then dig into them with an eye on their cultural impact, how they stand up today, and just whether they’re actually as good as all those critics and directors say they are.
It's Alicia's turn to pick first as we choose which films we're watching in the fourth round of the Stereoactive Movie Club!
Directed by Gene Kelly and Stanley Donen, 'Singin' in the Rain' was only considered a modest hit at the time, but has become one the best loved musicals and movies of all time.
Directed by Francis Ford Coppola, 'The Godfather Part II' manages to build, deepen, and perhaps even surpass the first installment.
Directed by Federico Fellini, 1963's '8 1/2' is a surreal meditation on the filtering of life through the creative process, despite the destruction such pursuits can bring.
Directed by David Lean, 1962's 'Lawrence of Arabia' is the epic story of a a hubristic and ultimately self-destructive man striving to exist in two worlds.
Directed by Alfred Hitchcock, 1958's 'Vertigo' is the psychological portrait of a man obsessed with a woman and his own failures.
