Episode 220: Favorite Films Of 2023 (feat. Bill Ackerman & Patrick Ripoll)

The title of this episode says it all. Over four hours of nerdy movie conversations and recommendations all about the year 2023. Two Director's Club mainstays return. Bill Ackerman (host of Supporting Characters and guest host of this show) along with Patrick Ripoll (co-host of 96 Greers) join me as well all share their favorite films of 2023.No categories this year (like Best Actor, etc.) but plenty of reflection, surprising disagreement and even a wild story about what happened when Patrick tried to see one of Jim's favorites. Thank you so much for the support this past year, listeners. And huge thanks to Patrick and Bill for joining me again.Opening Song: “Scaring The Hoes” - JPEGMAFIA x Danny Brown Closing Song: “I Don’t Like My Mind” - Mitski00:00 - 23:14 - Introduction / Thoughts on 2023 23:15 - 01:23:34 - #25-11 Favorites 01:23:35 - 01:28:59 - Chloe Waryan's Favorites 01:29:00 - 02:44:20 - #10-6 02:44:21 - 04:20:00 - #5-1 04:20:01 - 04:29:00 - OutroFollow Bill: https://letterboxd.com/billackerman https://www.nowplayingnetwork.net/supportingcharactersFollow Patrick: https://bsky.app/profile/uptownsongclub.bsky.social https://ninetysixgreers.podbean.comFollow Jim: https://linktr.ee/jimlaczkowski https://5years.substack.comThis is a public episode.
