Casino with Mallory Blair (1995)
Recorded almost a year ago, our long-awaited Casino episode finally escapes the vault. At one point, Austin asks me if we'll be caught up by Killers of the Flower Moon's Oscar campaign and, true to my word, I yell "NO". In other news, my CassaBesties co-host Mallory Blair makes her CineMythology...
-
The Driver (1978)
We celebrate the life and career of Ryan O'Neal with a discussion of his slickest star vehicle. My audio is a little choppy at times because I had to cut out a lot of barking. Peggy was very excitable during this episode but can you blame her? It's Ryan O'Neal, it's Isabelle Adjani, it's Bruce...
-
2023 at the Movies
We run down some of Austin's favorite new movies, some of Raymond's favorite old movies and exactly one prompt from the mailbag. Not a great ratio, I don't know what to tell you. Happy New Year, folks. Everyone is Beautiful and No One is Horny -...

Sorcerer (1977)
www.ceasefiretoday.com Austin wrote an excellent piece for Jacobin on the intersection of art and activism: https://jacobin.com/2023/12/australia-elites-censorship-israel-palestine-solidarity-sydney-theatre-company
-
Eraserhead (1977)
You know what, I loved having this conversation with Austin and I loved listening back to it while editing. This is a movie that both encourages and defies explanation. Truly one of a kind. We had a couple hours to chat about it which didn't increase my understanding of the film one bit but...
-
Dawn of the Dead with Becky Catalano (1978)
A year after their Night of the Living Dead episode, Becky and Raymond return to the works of George A. Romero. It's an impulse they can't explain, perhaps something buried deep down in their psyche. This filmmaker meant something to them when they were younger and they can't resist coming back...
-
The Exorcist with The Extra Credits (1973)
Kelsi and Trey from The Extra Credits podcast join us for the middle chapter of our Friedkin trifecta. Everything goes well until a stunning revelation an hour into the episode. Will the CineMythology listeners revolt? Will Raymond ever regain his credibility? Did he ever have any credibility to...
-
The Age of Innocence with Ra'Shawn Durell (1993)
Riding high off the box office success of Cape Fear, Scorsese brings an unexpected adaptation to the silver screen. We're joined by Ra'Shawn from When Cinephiles Attack to dig into this movie's emotional violence, Thelma Schoonmaker's experimental editing techniques and all things Michelle...
-
Shadows with Mallory Blair (1959)
The CassaBesties finally round the corner to John Cassavetes' directorial work with this discussion of his seminal feature debut. CineMythology's Austin Hayden pops in to discuss his favorite filmmaker and how Cassavetes' reputation has been unfairly pegged to a single aspect of his process. What...
-
Pee-wee's Big Adventure with Amanda Chavez (1985)
Like Pee-wee Herman, Paul Reubens was one of a kind and there's no better film to remember him by than Tim Burton's madcap debut feature. We're joined by podcast logo artist extraordinaire Amanda Chavez to discuss all the bits, quotes, goofs and gags that we've been obsessing over since…

The French Connection (1971)
Our run of tribute shows races on as we celebrate the late great William Friedkin with his Oscar winning masterpiece. You may think Popeye Doyle is a reckless monster but, at the end of the day, you'd be right. Buckle up, assholes, the only other Friedkin protagonist with this much pizazz is...
-
The Last Waltz (1978)
After Robbie Robertson's death, we thought it would be appropriate to double back and discuss Scorsese's most iconic documentary but then we got carried away and ended up talking about Barbenheimer for most of the episode. Austin was on a tight schedule and I thought it'd be difficult to do 90...
-
The Night of the Hunter (1955)
Let us tell you the story of Love and Hate. We absolutely LOVE Charles Laughton's work behind the camera and we absolutely HATE that there isn't more of it. Conan interviewing Gene Wilder: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3MqONAYz8E @creamatoria @austin_hayden @CineMythology...
-
Cape Fear with Becky Catalano (1991)
Martin Scorsese puts a new coat of paint on an old Hollywood classic. Break out your cigars and get ready to laugh out loud, but not in a genuine way, more in a really forced, purposefully obnoxious way that feels vaguely menacing. Please send questions and discussion prompts for our upcoming...
-
Poison with Will Johnson (1991)
We come in hot on this bad boy with a long discussion about the strike and where the industry may be headed. Things stay spicy when we finally dig into Todd Haynes' feature debut, its literary origins and the New Queer Cinema movement it helped inspire. Press play now for all that AND our first...
-
The Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat with Becky Catalano (1897)
Hey gang. Since Twitter is circling the drain, I figured I'd use the podcast feed to update everybody on the show and solicit your questions and comments for an upcoming mailbag. Please send them my way at [email protected]. After we get that business out of the way, Becky and I cover a...
-
Babylon with The Boys (2022)
We dip into the CineMythology Archives for our long lost Babylon discussion. Evan's Newsletter: https://wootw.substack.com Ra'Shawn's Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/when-cinephiles-attack/id1525150316 @CineMythology [email protected]
-
Daughters of the Dust with Mella (1991)
Mella from When Cinephiles Attack returns to the podcast to discuss Julie Dash's first and only theatrical feature. We interrogate the movie's place in film history, discuss the origins of the L.A. Rebellion and find a profound sense of meaning in license plates. @Mell_Bell @CinephileAttack...
-
Something Wild (1986)
We circle back to honor the late greats Ray Liotta and Jonathan Demme with the movie that put the former on Scorsese's map. How many other movies will we talk about before getting to Something Wild? How many other movies will we talk about AFTER getting to Something Wild? Who is the biggest hunk…
more -
Boyz N The Hood (1991)
We celebrate the late great John Singleton by discussing his seismic feature debut and the legacy he left behind. From the extraordinary cast to Singleton's technical flourishes, this picture truly deserves its place among the classics. @creamatoria @CineMythology [email protected]
-
GoodFellas with Becky Catalano (1990)
Returning champion Becky Catalano joins us for a discussion of Scorsese's most popular flick and the debut of a new segment which goes surprisingly well. We cover everything from the towering performances to the non-stop needle drops, underlining the film's humor and humanity along the way. Are...
-
Slacker (1990)
This one was recorded a while ago and Austin and I were talking about the (then) impending writers strike which ended up becoming a major chunk of this episode. We got pretty deep into A.I. generated "art" and how it fits within broader political and cultural trends in America, what that portends...
-
New York Stories (1989)
Not sure if anybody reads these but feel free to skip out on this movie after Scorsese's segment. We mostly talk about that one and then just kind of bounce off the other two into tangents about art, artifice and artificial intelligence. Should be a good listen. @creamatoria @CineMythology...
-
Sex, Lies and Videotape (1989)
Things get hot and heavy on the pod as the boys discuss Steven Soderbergh's feature film debut. The conversation kicks off with some essential haircut talk before pivoting to the movie's brilliant cast and script. Eventually, Austin gently nudges Raymond into a rant about the film's impact on the...
-
The Last Temptation of Christ with Michael Burns (1988)
We rise from our grave to discuss Scorsese's Mount Everest, The Last Temptation of Christ. Michael and Austin say a bunch of interesting, thought-provoking, philosophical stuff while Raymond does his best to not sound stupid. Thanks for hanging in there, folks. Enjoy the show. @creamatoria...
-
Bonnie & Clyde (1967)
Not gonna lie, this one got away from us. We talk about Bonnie & Clyde's place in film history and American history more broadly which opens things up to a discussion of how we think of outlaws today, how culture has shifted over time and the ways in which our technology and institutions have...
-
Vertigo (1958)
The Bermuda Boys are Back and Better than ever with a discussion of the former greatest movie of all time. We discuss the recent Sight & Sound poll and offer some theories as to how and why this film has seemingly cemented its place at the top of Hitchcock's filmography. We wrap things up with a...
-
Breathless (1960)
We honor the late great Jean-Luc Godard by discussing his debut feature but our conversation quickly veers toward other experimental standouts and revolutions in the art form. We discuss the democratization of film, the industry's ever-changing economic landscape and try to isolate the exact…

Announcements & Recommendations with Becky Catalano
Hey folks, Just wanted to jump into the podcast feed to update everyone on our increasingly sporadic schedule and offer some horror movie recommendations. Becky and I ended up having a great discussion that veered immediately into film history and 80 year old hot takes. Austin will be back soon…
more -
Halloween with Lux (1978)
It's Halloween and there's no better way to celebrate than with an ice cold glass of Halloween. Tuck your pumpkins into bed and get ready for some Halloween. On a Monday? That's right, baby. Forget the World Series, this is the real Fall Classic. Raymond and Austin will be back next Wednesday,...
-
Candyman (1992)
Our ghost story series comes to a close with Tony Todd's terrific turn as Candyman. We discuss the sociopolitical underpinnings of this masterpiece, unreliable narrator syndrome and how the stories we tell have real world consequences. We end the episode with a rundown of Raymond's ideal six…
more -
BONUS: Night of the Living Dead with Becky Catalano (1968)
Look, we definitely talk about Night of the Living Dead but it just takes us a minute to get there, okay? This is one of my favorite movies and I took the job seriously but I'm not gonna lie, folks, we got a little bit loose on this episode. I hope you enjoy it because we had a blast. @Beckalano...
-
A Ghost Story with Megan Gilbert (2017)
Lowery Lads™ and Cronenboys™ unite as October rolls along. We're joined by writer/director/tweeter extraordinaire Megan Gilbert to talk about filmmaking, the afterlife and how passive-aggressive ghosts can get when you don't listen to their demo. @meegangilbert @austin_hayden @creamatoria...
-
Pulse (2001)
Ghost month continues apace with Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Kairo aka Pulse. It's tough to imagine this film being set at any other place or any other time but its increasingly prescient and universal themes make for great, indepth discussion. Make sure you stick around until the end to hear Raymond's...
-
Personal Shopper (2016)
October is here and ghost stories came with it, folks. This week we're discussing Personal Shopper which is one of Raymond's all-time favorites. We get into Kristen Stewart's extraordinary thumb acting, this movie's richly textured soundscape and whether or not ghosts have iPhones. @austin_hayden...
-
Wings of Desire (1987)
Austin is finally back from Italy so we're discussing one of his all-time favorites with a little help from my dog. We hear about his travels in another installment of Austin's Hayden Voyage™ before getting into what this movie means to him, how it defies the viewer's expectations and what we all...
-
Three Thousand Years of Longing with Evan Yee (2022)
Evan Yee jumps on the podcast at the last minute to discuss George Miller's Fury Road followup, Three Thousand Years of Longing. An ode to romance, storytelling and life itself, this film is refreshingly sincere if slightly unconventional. Join us as we discuss its themes, execution and place in...
-
Real Women Have Curves with Carmella Diaz-Lolar (2002)
Austin is busy gallivanting around Italy so Mella from When Cinephiles Attack joined Raymond in the podcast factory for a discussion of Patricia Cardoso's Real Women Have Curves. We discuss the film's legacy, Cardoso's attention to detail and America Ferrera's brilliant breakout performance. This...
-
Thief (1981)
We celebrate Labor Day and give another tip of the cap to James Caan with a discussion of Michael Mann's proletarian powerhouse debut, Thief. Rich with atmosphere and obsessed with process, Thief is a simple story that's elevated by masterful filmmaking and topnotch performances. It's so good,...
-
The Searchers with Keir Siewert (1956)
Join us as we discuss the film that looms the largest over Scorsese's early work, John Ford's The Searchers. Our guest breaks down the many reasons he counts this as his favorite film of all time and we end the episode by running down a few favorites of our own with the highly anticipated Western...
-
The Yakuza (1974)
After mentioning it on multiple episodes, we finally jump into the Time Tunnel to discuss Sydney Pollack's The Yakuza. It's always tough for me to figure out what to write here but it's even more difficult this week because I don't leave a whole lot left unsaid during this discussion. In case you...
-
Nope with Ra'Shawn Durell and Carmella Diaz-Lolar (2022)
Ra'Shawn and Mella from When Cinephiles Attack join us for a discussion of Jordan Peele's newest nightmare. We're talkin' Gordy, we're talkin' Kaluuya, and you better believe we're talkin' about how this movie (like all movies) is a western. Then, we end the episode by discovering that Austin is…
more -
The Color of Money with Darren Mooney (1986)
They said we couldn't talk about The Color of Money for three hours but they were (mostly) wrong. Author/Film Critic Darren Mooney joins Raymond for a discussion of Martin Scorsese's wilderness years, the evolution of the movie star and some thoughts on the film industry's future. Then, Austin...
-
The Hustler (1961)
Does Raymond have talent? Does Austin have character? Find out for yourself as we lay the groundwork for next week's Color of Money discussion with some background on Fast Eddie Felson and the silver screen icon that portrayed him. We dig into The Hustler's highlights and lowlifes and, in classic...
-
After Hours with Karsten Runquist (1985)
Well, we had Karstcast host and video essayist extraordinaire Karsten Runquist on to discuss one of his favorite Scorsese movies and then most of his audio was lost. Prior to editing the podcast, I recorded a brief intro explaining our new release schedule and didn't mention the missing audio...
