The Criterion Project

With Rachel wrapping up her project to review every movie in the AFI 100 Years... 100 Passions list, we decided to take a look at this fun but kind of baffling list and pick out some of our favorite movies. What criterion has been used to rank these love stories? It's hard to say!

Movies discussed in this episode:

Beauty and the Beast

The Bridges of Madison County

It Happened One Night

Make Way for Tomorrow

A Place in the Sun

What's Up, Doc?

Conrado and Rachel are joined by Collin Brinkmann, author of Intimate Impressions: The Cinema of James Gray — the first monograph / critical biography on James Gray in English - to talk about Gray's second feature THE YARDS, a mournful crime saga starring Mark Wahlberg, Joaquin Phoenix and Charlize Theron. We talk about what makes Gray special, why he's so underrated as a filmmaker, and the problem-filled history of this movie's release.
