28 - The Royal Tenenbaums

4/8/2021

 
Picture
​Your favorite Wes Anderson dysfunctional family is front and center in today's episode!

The Royal Tenenbaums holds a special place in many people's hearts and shows the director's growth in balancing whimsy, humor, as well as personal drama.

27 - Rushmore (Bottle Rocket)

4/1/2021

 
Picture
​Houselights transitions from Christopher Nolan to Wes Anderson!

Prepare for music from the 70s as well as the color yellow. This week we tackle "Rushmore" but open with a few thoughts on his first film "Bottle Rocket."

What do you think of Rushmore this many years later?

26 - Tenet

3/26/2021

 
Picture
​Houselights tackle Christopher Nolan's latest with "Tenet."

Many believed it to be too confusing for its own good. Others had a hard time even understanding what they were even saying. But a good portion of the audience was blown away.

What did you think of this mind-bending sci-fi epic?

25 - Dunkirk

3/11/2021

 
Picture
​Dunkirk is over an hour shorter than Interstellar but packs an incredible amount of action in a short period of time. Being his first movie based on a true story, he was still able to find a way to cut in a non-linear fashion.

How do you feel about this WWII epic?

24 - Interstellar

3/4/2021

 
Picture
​You can't quantify how much we love Nolan's "Interstellar," but we're going to try. 

After finishing the wildly successful Dark Knight trilogy, Nolan refused to stay grounded and made his own 2001.

How do you feel this movie holds up today?

23 - The Dark Knight Rises

2/25/2021

 
Picture
​?THE FIRE RISES!?

Houselights is here to discuss the ending to the greatest superhero trilogy of all time "The Dark Knight Rises!"

In this hotly contested film, but beloved by many, we dissect what worked, what didn't, and what needed to be streamlined.

How do you view Nolan's TDKR nine years later?

22 - Inception

2/18/2021

 
Picture
BWAAAAAM!!!!!

"Inception" barrels in this week just like a train at an intersection. With DiCaprio and Christopher Nolan's only collaboration to date, your Houselights hosts dissect what's real, what isn't, and what's good.

2/11/2021

 
Picture
​This week your hosts discuss what is arguably the greatest superhero #film of all time! 

Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight" flew into theaters, broke box office records, and was a great story on top of it. 

How do you feel about this #Batman #movie13 years later?

20 - The Prestige

2/4/2021

 
Picture
​Following up after the success of "Batman Begins," Christopher Nolan brings his now mind-bending signature to the magical masterpiece "The Prestige." Hugh Jackman, Christian Bale, Scarlett Johansson, and Michael Caine bring their A-game and so do your hosts this week.
