You can't stop what's coming - and that's a 4 plus hour runtime. Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew: Ian, Liam, Ethan, and Georgia (Megs is in the ICU) as we head to West Texas in 1980 in search of fate or nihilism or God or meaning in The Coen Brothers' seminal work "No Country For Old Men." We're also celebrating our 200th episode with some Friends of the Podcast and with a runtime this high, you know there's probably a special someone coming on. We're telling you to 'call it' in our 200th episode as we discuss:
- The difference between active and passive spectatorship and how directors usually manipulate our response
- Whether or not we as viewers are obligated a story that ties up with any respect to the story being told
- Who was the original first choice of the Coens for Llewelyn Moss and the backup choice for Anton Chigurh
- We're building our communal word power as we forsake brevity in the spirit of levity
- We're joined by Friends of the Podcast: Andy Dickson, James DeGuzman and Hermes Auslander
- We discuss again how Liam and Georgia watch films as opposed to Ian and Ethan's perspective
- Someone didn't set a Fantasy Football lineup. Guess who.
- The group pick their Mount Rushmore of Scary Disney Scenes
- Whether or not No Country For Old Men is the Best Film Ever
