Episode 163: Sofia Coppola Watch Series #7 (ON THE ROCKS, 2020)

We've finally reached the penultimate Coppola film (at least, until her new Marc Jacobs documentary gets distribution), the 2020 A24/Apple TV+ release: ON THE ROCKS! We discuss the performances by leads, the emotional material this film touches on, our shared gripes, and we get into some extended talk on Bill Murray and the #MeToo movement. Before that, we went over the usual news and what we watched this week. While Curtis is away, John will return soon with special guest Dr. John Bruni to discuss Casavettes debut picture: SHADOWS.TIME STAMPS00:00:00 Introduction00:03:27 Shout outs: RIP Grahame Greene00:05:13 New Releases (The Toxic Avenger, The Thursday Murder Club, Task (TV), The Conjuring: Last Rites)What We Watched This Week00:11:53 Dances with Wolves (Curtis)00:13:30 The Imitation Game (Curtis)00:14:47 Terminator Resistance [video game] (Curtis)00:17:36 Suicide Squad (John)00:20:40 Terminator 2: Judgement Day (John)00:26:22 Rosewater (John)00:30:30 The Battle of Lake Changjin (John)00:36:20 Burial Ground (John)00:38:40 ON THE ROCKS Discussion010:56:40 Our Scores for ON THE ROCKS01:02:30Coming Up Next!CREDITS AND PLUGSIntro: I Fall In Love Too Easily - Chet BakerOutro: Identical - PhoenixCheck out the GENRE GEMS website, with links to their early bird passes: https://www.genregems.ca/Follow John on Letterboxd—@johnnycakes91Curtis: https://www.the-back-row.com/ - check out 'Runstedler's DVD Pick of the Month'https://curtisrunstedler.ca/Dr Curtis Reads: https://www.youtube.com/@curtisrunstedler
