Episode 449: Wanna Have A Dance Party?

Peter Sobczynski again joins Erik Childress to tell you what’s available in physical media this week. You can stock up on your French auteurs, Eric Rohmer and Jean-Luc Godard. There are lions and Cagneys and Willy’s, oh my! They go through the good and mediocre in the pricey new 4K set from Sony and Peter offers his two cents on his choice for the best film of 2023. Plus nobody puts Kevin Bacon in the corner as both recall their experiences with the film that tried to stop him from dancing. 0:00 - Intro 0:59 – Criterion (Eric Rohmer’s Tales of Four Seasons) 6:39 – Kino (Godard Cinema and Trailer of a Film That Will Never Exist: Phony Wars, Madame DuBarry, Blood on the Sun, Man-Eater of Kumaon, Let's Dance) 22:20 – Paramount (Footloose 4K) 32:01 – Shout!
