The Godfather: Part II (1974) – 50th Anniversary Rerelease

In honor of the 50th anniversary of Francis Ford Coppola’s masterpiece, The Godfather: Part II, Bald Move is rereleasing their coverage. 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.

Magnolia (1999) – 25th Anniversary Rerelease

In honor of the 25th anniversary of Paul Thomas Anderson’ Magnolia (1999), Bald Move is rereleasing their coverage. Special thanks to Lauren, Anne, and Rick who chipped in to commission this podcast on Magnolia for Alex Myers as a Christmas (!!!) present.  Jim and I had never seen Magnolia, the Paul Thomas Anderson classic before now, and wow is it a doozy.  Starring greats such as William H. Macy, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Julianne Moore, to name just a few, it involves a day in the life of a dozen or so characters on a collision course with fate and coincidence, and what they’ll learn about themselves and each other along the way.  Fueled by raw emotion and melodrama, we were intrigued by the complex tale being woven before our eyes.  If you haven’t seen it, check it out before we spoil it for you on this podcast, because it’s an amazing film.
