On our fist dispatch from the Vancouver International Film Festival, I’m joined by festival correspondent, and Green Screen of Death podcast co-host, Bill Harris (@soundjam69) to get some insight into great titles from Fantastic Fest and some of the highlights (and low lights) of VIFF so far.
Prepare yourself for some high praise of Xavier Dolan’s Mommy!

In an effort to stay on schedule to deliver a monthly preview for the entire year, Colleen, Dale (Letterboxd) and I (Letterboxd) scheduled some time a little earlier than usual to catch up on the October releases before the madness of the Vancouver International Film Festival takes over!

It’s clear that festival season is almost upon us. Just look at the mix of middle brow thrillers and last year’s festival titles opening this month. It’s like the leftover month. Yet, Colleen, Dale (Letterboxd) and I (Letterboxd) manage to find a few titles that look appealing. Hopefully a few of them will open wide enough that we’ll get a chance to see them.

Last week I had the chance to speak with Adam Saunders, the actor-turned-producer of About Alex (review) and the CEO of Footprint Features, a young production company with a couple of movies under its belt and a few more due in the next year.
Adam was very forthcoming and we chatted about the struggles of producing movies outside the big studio system, the difficulties of balancing vision with finance and how he became involved in Jesse Zwick’s directorial debut.
About Alex opens theatrically and is available on VOD Friday, August 8th.

Due to some minor technical difficulties (namely my printer being a piece of crap that spews out pages in no particular order), the order of the movie titles in the show are a bit out of whack this month but Colleen, Dale (Letterboxd) and I (Letterboxd) manage to get through the entire month. And it was a long one.
We almost gave up in the middle but pushed ahead after chocolate cookies. Said cookies may have impaired my judgment as I chatter crap about a Sin City movie that hasn’t come out yet. Oops.
Other things of note this episode:
– Open Culture’s Five Rules of Film Noir
– WTF Podcast – Marc Maron talks with Gabriel Iglesias
– Alexandre Aja on Bret Easton Ellis podcast
– Eli Roth on Nerdist podcast

This month’s show includes a little more rambling than usual but then, that’s what happens when you stay up too late watching TV.
Any who. Colleen, now with the ability to own a gun, joins Dale (Letterboxd) and I (Letterboxd) as we look ahead to July, the month so far this year to have the largest number of releases in a single week. Seriously.
And on a side not, if you’re as in love with the new Shins song as I am (I will neither confirm nor deny that for the last week I’ve been listening to this song on repeat for an hour every afternoon), you may also stumble into our bonus content which includes us talking about “Dune” and awesome “Dune” tattoos (among other things like Colleen singing the lyrics to her new song “Pet Meth”). LIKE THIS AWESOME THING!!

Colleen decided it was more important to go for a gun test than to record a show and we totally agree. Someone in our little group needs to have the skills to protect the rest of us in case of a zombie breakout and she’s the most capable. So Dale (Letterboxd) and I (Letterboxd) mourn her absence for a moment before forging ahead into what is shaping up to look like a really great month.
And hey, we start the show with mention of the launch of Dale’s personal podcast, Brain Farts from a Mundane Dragon, the first episode of which is a great look at Emerald City Comic Con from varying attendees!

May is here and with it, FINALLY, the beginning of summer movie month. Nothing gets Dale (Letterboxd), Colleen and I (Letterboxd) more excited than kaiju awesomeness and as if that’s not enough, there’s also McFassy love in our very near future!
Off the top I also make note of an awesome service called Can I Stream it?. It’s totally free and does exactly what the name suggests: tells you if the title is streaming and where. Pretty awesome but likely only of use for our US listeners. Bummer.

A mid month podcast? What’s going on?!
During last year’s Vancouver International Film Festival, I had the opportunity to see Jason James’ romantic comedy – about STDs – That Burning Feeling (review). I also had the chance to catch up with director Jason James shortly after he introduced the movie. We made our way to the lobby where we chatted for 20 minutes, complete with a walk through part by a very chatty group of ladies, about everything from the cast and writing strong characters to the Vancouver dating and real estate scene.
That Burning Feeling opens in Vancouver and various other Canadian cities on Friday, April 11th. Stay up to date with the movie’s release via their Facebook page.

The calendar still says spring but the movies are clearly screaming summer. A new Marvel movie, a couple of indies, a handful of horror movies and some kick ass action in this month’s line-up means that there’s a little something to get even Dale (Letterboxd), Colleen and I (Letterboxd) excited.
And the Wagner doc I couldn’t remember… it’s Wagner & Me with Stephen Fry.
