Three Geeky Dads

This week, we're taking a look at Almost Famous, the semi-autobiographical story from Cameron Crowe of an up and coming 1970's rock band struggling with the harsh realities of fame... or are we??? April, for us, is April Fool's Month where we say we're looking at one film but, we actually look at something completely different! Listen in and find out what we're really talking about.

In the March of Madness continues here on the podcast as, this week, our very own master of the the macabre and mischief, Marc, brings us another claustrophobic film for us to take a look at. This time, he brings us the Alfred Hitchcock classic, ROPE starring James Stewart. The film tells the story of two brilliant young room mates, Brandon Shaw and Phillip Morgan, who strangle to death their former classmate David in their Manhattan penthouse apartment. They commit the crime as an intellectual exercise: they want to prove their superiority by committing the "perfect murder"...and see if they can get away with it by hiding David's body in a large trunk and then proceed to throw a dinner party where some of the invited guests happen to be David's father and his fiancee. Also present is their former professor, played by James Stewart, who begins to suspect that something is terribly wrong and that Brandon and Phillip are somehow involved. Tune in and find out what we thought.

In the March of Madness month continues with another Marc pick of movies that take place in one confined space. This week, we're taking a look at Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs, the 1992 American independent heist film starring Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Chris Penn, Steve Buscemi, Michael Madsen as diamond thieves whose heist of a jewelry store goes terribly wrong. Joining us on the podcast this week, is friend of the show and one of Tarantino's biggest fans...Mike Freeman! Listen in and find out what we all thought.
