This podcast for 2014's "The Imitation Game" was commissioned on Subbable by a shadowy MI6 agent who for reasons of operational security, would prefer to remain anonymous. We have seen the film, and we have very mixed feelings about it. On the one hand, it is an artistic and emotional triumph, which really helped us empathize with Alan Turing's life long struggle as a brilliant autistic homosexual man to be accepted and loved as he led the Allied war effort to break the "unbreakable" Nazi Enigma encryption system and save millions of lives. On the other hand, the film takes so many personal and historical liberties with Turing's very real life and the very real Project Ultra that we don't know what to believe.If, like us, you are moved to know more about Turing and / or Enigma, might I suggest some of these links for reading:An Alan Turing Expert answers your questions about the film, "The Imitation Game".Alan Turing: The Enigma - The book the film is loosely based on.A Poor Imitation of Alan TuringHow Accurate is "The Imitation Game"?"Codebreaker" - A TV movie based on Alan Turing Learn more about your ad choices.

Super fan Keith Fisher commissioned this podcast on Subbable as a Christmas present for his lovely wife, as it is one of her all time favorite movies. I feel like I'm sliding a large lump of coal down her stocking (hey now!) because it was not Jim and I's favorite movie. But still, we gave it the Bald Move treatment! Are you in the mood for a heartwarming story of a megalomaniac orphan spiritually and emotionally enslaved by a shut in old couple, as she seeks death in ever more creative ways while lashing out in rages against old ladies and class clowns? As if this tale weren't already dark enough, how will this sleepy Canadian community deal with the pedophilic school teacher in their midst? Will Matthew's old heart be able to take it?! (Spoiler alert: It will not.) So, Merry Christmas, Keith's wife! Put down the chalk board and climb down from the roof's edge, I'm sure the rest of your presents will be better...

Jim and A.Ron do another deep dive into the world of Coppola's The Godfather, this time looking at Part II, which celebrates it's 40th anniversary tomorrow. A darker, more brooding, more intricate film that it's predecessor, we struggle to answer the question, which is better? Along the way we play a lot of what if's and comparisons. Clemenza or Pentangeli? Vito or Michael? Brando or De Niro? When did Vito decide to be the Don? What is Tom and Michael's relationship at the end? Where did Michael go wrong? DID Michael go wrong? All this and much more is contemplated in this mammoth two hour podcast, for your holiday enjoyment. Hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording it.

Thanks to überfan Anthony Basich who used our Subbable subscription site to commission a personal podcast, for one of his favorite films, the 1991 Coen Brothers film, "Barton Fink". Jim and A.Ron talk about the occasionally dark, occasionally funny, very deep and dreamy, take on the creative process, the Hollywood establishment, the rise of national socialism, the dangers of homoerotic suppression, an expose of ghostwriters, and wait--what the hell? What is this film, anyway? Jim and A.Ron grapple with these issues and more.Hope you enjoyed your podcast, Anthony, and thank you so much for your support!
