This week we sing the praises of Jacques Demy's 1964 classic "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg." And even though every line of dialogue is sung in the movie, I promise we abandon the idea of fully singing the podcast pretty quickly.

Valentine's Day is fast approaching so we decided to get in the mood by watching Wong Kar-Wai's 2000 film, "In The Mood For Love."

Even for a sad-man-movie podcast, Akira Kurosawa's "Ikiru" from 1952 is really, really sad! But that doesn't mean we didn't have a good time talking about it.
In this episode, Riddy and Tom talk about the continuing relevance of this Japanese classic; saddest karaoke songs; $3,850 hedonistic binges; the similarities between "Ikiru" and "Parks and Recreation"; Immaculate Grids; personal public works projects; and hats!

Riddy and Tom finally did it. They discussed an MCU movie. It's set during Christmastime, so we used that as an excuse to talk about "Iron Man 3."
This is probably the least sad-man movie covered so far on the podcast, and that made the hosts so sad they end up recounting their recent travels; the state of the MCU; AOL instant messenger; celebrity math skills; historical figures in Iron Man suits; a Twin Peaks aside; properly setting expectations; and NDA-breaking thruple discussion.

The most wonderful time of the year can often be the saddest time, too. So our first episode for December is the holiday classic, "It's A Wonderful Life."
Despite the cheery title, this is a pretty sad film. So while we touch on the topics of suicide and financial ruin, we also discuss the feared communist message in the story; Iguana Jesus; time traveling former presidents; high-waisted pants; the conversation rate of Wakandan dollars in Bedford Falls; and the futility of planning one's future.
