Parental Misguided with Beck & Sara

In these troubled times, we find ourselves spending a lot of time with our kids. And watching TV. And watching TV with our kids. Let us help you navigate classic films from your youth that may be “problematic” in today’s world.

  1. 13

    To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything. Julie Newmar

    We celebrate Pride and Drag with the Patrick Swayze film that tackles LGBTQ and race issues.

  2. 12

    Groundhog Day

    “What would you do, if you were stuck in one place, and every day was the same, and nothing that you did mattered?”

  3. 11

    Just Mercy

    Available to Stream for free on iTunes and Prime, and other platforms. Elevate Black voices. No Justice. No Peace.

  4. 10

    Tootsie

    This week we dismantle the early 80’s “feminist groundbreaker” Tootsie, which is neither pro-female nor breaks any ground. But, at least there was no anti-trans violence committed...

  5. 9

    Young Frankenstein

    Another fun comedy-horror film, and a slightly more family friendly Mel Brooks offering. Make Marty Feldman Fans of all children.

  6. 8

    Blazing Saddles

    It would be easier to make a list of things that are kid-appropriate in this movie than not. But, it’s a great teachable moment about race, using kind words and how people come together when they work towards a common cause.

  7. 7

    Clue

    The loveliest intro to murder mysteries, with a teachable moment about the Male Gaze.

  8. 6

    Monty Python and the Holy Grail

    Gratuitous violence, sassy Frenchmen and These Questions Three. Beck and Sara rediscover the source material for 65% of their personalities.

  9. 5

    A Fish Called Wanda

    A million F-Words and the most not-naked nudity in a film about good old British vs. American hijinks.

  10. 4

    Mr. Mom

    Taking you back to 1983, and the original DILF, Michael Keaton. Gender inequality and at-work sexual harassment, all in one tasty family comedy.

  11. 3

    Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

    A deep dive into this classic 80’s film, through the eyes of a couple of parents that wouldn’t have fallen for his B.S.

  12. 2

    Getting to know Beck and Sara

    Our first attempt to record remotely for social distancing, we introduce ourselves and talk about how watching films as a family and our favorite films from our formative years affects how we share movies with our own kids.
