Episode 227: Keith Gordon + Underrated Films of the 2000s

Couldn't be more thrilled to share the latest conversation I had with one of my favorite returning guests, actor/writer/director Keith Gordon who may remember as Arnie from John Carpenter's Christine. He's been on several times in the past to not only talk about his films and his career but particular movies he thinks you should seek out from a particular decade.In the tradition of the Pure Cinema Podcast, this is more of a back-and-forth conversation about ten titles from a list that we put together and finalize. There's a little bit of everything - a short film, a wacky comedy, a neo-noir, a Gothic horror film and an acclaimed documentary as we run down favorites from the 2000s that we hope you'll seek out if you haven't yet. Thank you so much for listening and I can't thank Keith enough for taking the time to return to the show and sharing his passion for cinema. 00:00 - 04:20 - Introduction 04:21 - 21:20 - Introduction w/Keith 21:22 - 02:04:41 - Underrated Films of the 2000s 02:04:41 - 02:26:53 - Waking The Dead / OutroSubstack: https://5years.substack.comNew Website: https://jimlaczkowski.comPrevious Keith Gordon episodes: https://www.directorsclubpodcast.com/archives/keithgordonarchivesPlastic Bag (2009): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkbT50O7sccThis is a public episode.
