The Schlock and Awe Podcast

This week on S&A Lindsay & Film Critic Kahn Duncan try to untangle the strings of fate with a Double of David Lynch's Dune (1984) & William Fredkin's Sorcerer (1977). This is not just a Double about Fate, it is also about the environment that each world inhabits but also about a certain Space Opera hanging over both as each of these auteurs try to define their era.  Remember to rate, review and subscribe to Schlock & Awe on your preferred podcast platform  

This week on S&A Lindsay and Rachel tap dance on the town in Paris with a Gene Kelly Double of Stanley Donan's On the Town (1949) & Vincente Minnelli's An American in Paris (1951). Gene Kelly was an important figure not just in the Movie Musical but in Movies in General. They way he developed dance and abstract moved through film history.

This week on S&A Lindsay & film critic Nadine Whitney know you should never underestimate a seemingly awkward woman. We are looking at the story of Catherine Sloper of Henry James' novel Washington Square. A double of William Wyler's The Heiress (1949) & Agnieszka Holland's Washington Square (1997).

This week on S&A Lindsay and Tim from It Didn't Go Platinum Podcast wonder what it would be like to grow up in the apocalypse. It's a Double of Alfonso Cuaron's Children of Men (2006) & Dr. George Miller's Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024). This is a Double that not only looks at gaining power or resources in a dystopia - whether it be children or a bullet farm. But more importantly the attitudes of countries like Britain and Australia and their attitudes toward dictatorships. Are we closer than we think heading toward 2027 (the answer is yes by the way) or is all about putting on a show.
