Starting off the morning with some cerebral sci-fi.

#NowWatching Ikarie XB 1. I saw this mentioned in a short documentary about Soviet fantasy and horror films, then two days later heard it discussed on the @purecinemapod.bsky.social.

Seems like a sign to me.

This is terrific, and way beyond the usual biographical re-telling they pair each of his films with other fascinating-sounding films from all over the shop.

It chimed with a discussion in this excellent episode of @purecinemapod.bsky.social about how Kubrick anchors his films in reality, even when the subject matter is fantastic, e.g. people eating normal cereal normally; toilets flushing out of frame...

Thinking about Glen Powell's career and his next roles. Listening to @purecinemapod.bsky.social they dropped a double-bill with Barry Lyndon starring Errol Flynn.
That's it - he needs to play more rogues with action and character @elrickane.bsky.social @bobfreelander.bsky.social

Of course one loves listening to the @purecinemapod.bsky.social boys talk about Kubrick. But it’s the pairings where the gold is truly found. Where has Lubitsch’s TO BE OR NOT TO BE (1942) been all my life? And when will it double with Inglorious Basterds at the @newbeverly.bsky.social ?#thanksPCPod

Wondered why I'd been asked for David Mamet's HEIST (2001) a few times in the last week, then I listened to this two part epic podcast on Kubrick where all is explained!

Seven hours sounds like a chore, but this is an absolute delight.

Great work Brian and Elric.

Highlight of this is undoubtedly the two contrasting films that Brian and Elric pair with A Clockwork Orange. You couldn’t wish for a better example of why they are the perfect podcasting team.
