Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all! Tricia Aurand of the Beyond the Screenplay podcast helps Shawn celebrate the occasion with a viewing of Gillian Armstrong’s 1994 adaptation of Little Women. For many (Tricia included), this is the seminal adaptation of Louisa May Alcott’s classic novel, a reputation Tricia feels is somewhat diminished by the release of Greta Gerwig’s 2019 adaptation. Her and Shawn discuss why the 1994 film is still vital and wonderful, why it’s okay for everyone to love and appreciate BOTH versions, and why Christian Bale is the ultimate dreamboat.

Last Thanksgiving, Brad Gullickson and Aaron Prescott joined Shawn for a rewatch of the entire Rocky series. Now, one year later, they take a look at Sylvester Stallone’s brand new director’s cut of Rocky IV: Rocky Vs. Drago. Is it a major improvement or is the theatrical version still champ?

Happy Halloween, Missing Framers! Celebrate the spooky season with Shawn, Annie and Scott as they discuss Annie and Scott's first viewing of David Lynch's feature debut Eraserhead. Shawn considers this a 'perfect' film - will it hold the same sway over Annie and Scott or will its nightmarish imagery throw them for a loop? All these questions and more will be answered! (Or maybe no questions will be answered at all. This is David Lynch we're talking about...)
