End Credits Show Notes for Wednesday December 13, 2023 (Episode #325)

This week on End Credits, we’re going to Japan. Our friends on the other side of the Pacific are having quite a movie moment right now with two of the three movies in the Top 5 at the North American box office being Japanese.

End Credits Show Notes for Wednesday December 6, 2023 (Episode #324)

This week on End Credits, we bring you season’s grievings! See what we did there? If we’re making generic holiday salutations with a dark twist, then you know the time has come for another Christmas horror, and this year that happens to be It’s a Wonderful Knife, which you can now watch on Shudder. In other end-of-year matters, we will kick-off this last month of 2023 by talking about some of the stuff that happened in 2023.  Continue reading “End Credits Show Notes for Wednesday December 6, 2023 (Episode #324)”

End Credits Show Notes for Wednesday November 29, 2023 (Episode #323)

This week on End Credits, we’ve got a complex. We’ve got a long movie about a small man, and all the violence and psychological issues that drove him to try and take over Europe. We’re going to talk about that guy, Napoleon, and the new movie that bears his name, and we will also talk about our homework for the next couple of weeks, as we work towards the end of the year and a robust discussion about the best films of 2023.  Continue reading “End Credits Show Notes for Wednesday November 29, 2023 (Episode #323)”

End Credits Show Notes for Wednesday November 22, 2023 (Episode #322)

This week on End Credits, we’re going back to school! At the end of November? Sort of. Our movie of the week takes places at a boarding school where the only magic is the power of human connection and interaction. We’re reviewing the new Alexander Payne movie called The Holdovers, which features our man of the week (pictured above) actor Paul Giamatti!

End Credits Show Notes for Wednesday November 15, 2023 (Episode #321)

This week on End Credits, we don’t have any feelings. That’s the aesthetic – some people say – of David Fincher, and it’s pretty much a theme of his new movie, The Killer. On this show, it’s going to be all Fincher, all the time as we draft the director’s best works, and then we will dive into his new entry, which you can now stream on Netflix, and see if it’s worthy of future “Best of” lists. Continue reading “End Credits Show Notes for Wednesday November 15, 2023 (Episode #321)”

End Credits Show Notes for Wednesday November 8, 2023 (Episode #320)

This week on End Credits, we’re upsetting the system. Gender politics and the politics of power are on the menu with the movie we’re reviewing for this show as we fire up in the Netflix machine and put Fair Play, one of the most talked about films of the year, in the queue. And speaking of systems, we’ll ask if whether November 8 is too early for a Christmas movie marathon. Continue reading “End Credits Show Notes for Wednesday November 8, 2023 (Episode #320)”

End Credits Show Notes for Wednesday November 1, 2023 (Episode #319)

This week on End Credits, things are sombre. Halloween is over, it’s the long dull march through November to the official start of the Christmas season, and the serious award-seeking movies are starting to come out. Speaking of which, we’re going to talk about one of those movies, Killers of the Flower Moon, and to balance things out, we’re also going to talk about some happier times on film.
