Prizefighting Kangaroo

Co-hosts Amy and Ashley put Quentin Tarantino under their microscope on this edition of Prizefighting Kangaroo. There's a deep dive into the filmmaker and foot fetishist's 2019 summer blockbuster, Once Upon a Time In Hollywood. Though they didn't actually cover the foot-loving aspect of the director, they did chat about his other movies and as well as what makes him continually compelling...

In our continued celebration of directors in 2019, for this episode we've invited a guest — Phoenix-based journalist Tom Reardon — to join us to chat about one of his favorite directors, Whit Stillman. With only seven movies under his directorship, Stillman hasn't been terribly prolific but he has managed to maintain a following and create opinions about his movies that often follow the lives of young, rich kids in NYC. Let's just say not everyone in this convo holds the same level of fandom... of the director and of socialites...

On this episode of PFK, Ashley and Amy examine a variety of movies made with Linklater in the director's chair.

In this episode, Ashley and Amy are joined by their producer Devin for a convo about the horror movie genre.

They talk actors, directors, and dig into flicks from the way back and ones hitting screens more recently...

These white-knuckle situations often cause distress and anxiety for the viewer, and we love blabbing about that which disrupts the psyche. Join us as we dig into A Scanner Darkly, The Departed, Vertigo, some David Lynch movies (no surprise there!), and more...
