Piecing It Together Podcast

On this special mini episode, Phil A and I record our first impressions of the experience that was the IMAX screening of Kanye West's Jesus Is King. Part film, part music video, part live performance... Love him or hate him, Kanye West is one of the most unique artists working today, and while the film doesn't warrant a full length episode, it was definitely worth talking about.NOTE: This is a special mini-episode and unlike our usual episodes of the podcast. It was also recorded in a moving car on a pocket recorder so it doesn't sound like our usual episodes.As always, SPOILER ALERT for Jesus Is King and the movies we discuss! https://jesusisking.imax.com/Phil A is a producer/rapper and has worked with a number of artists including his own rap groups.

ocketman. The rock music biopic is a genre that's been done over and over (and from the looks of it, it's going to be done over and over a lot more times), but director Dexter Fletcher and his Rocketman Taron Egerton find ways to breathe a little life into the genre. Puzzle pieces include La La Land, Across The Universe, What Happened, Miss Simone and Michael Jackson's Moonwalker.As always, SPOILER ALERT for Rocketman and the movies we discuss!https://www.paramount.com/movies/rocketmanDirector - Dexter FletcherWriter - Lee HallStarring Taron Egerton, Jamie Bell, Richard Madden, Bryce Dallas Howard, Gemma Jones, Steven MackintoshParamountIf you haven't yet, make sure to check out the mini-episode I did with my parents right after we saw Rocketman.

On the 61st episode of Piecing It Together, Bee Garner from Filmotomy and JumpCut Online joins me to talk about the polarizing Under The Silver Lake. After an iffy premiere at Cannes, distributor A24 got cold feet, allowing it to leak online, then delaying it over and over until David Robert Mitchell's follow-up to It Follows was dumped to VOD. Which sucks. Because it's a cult classic in the making.
