The Movies of 1999

To celebrate the 25th jubilee of what is considered by many to be the greatest year of cinema I’ll be hosting a movie night each weekend for the entire year. This podcast is my invitation to you to join us for the ride. Venture back with us to the before-times when movies could be daring and unpredictable and different to anything anybody had seen before. See you at the movies!

Jason is overjoyed while Craig is overwrought and languishing in despair after watching the first 2h45m of Paul Thomas Anderson's masterpiece "Magnolia", exiting stage left as amphibians descended from the heavens. He tried therapy only to be bumped off the waiting list by Robert De Niro in the light entertainment escapist antidote of "Analyze This". See you at the movies!

Jason and Craig drive an ambulance around the gritty nighttime streets of New York City in search of a good Nicholas Cage performance in the Martin Scorsese's "Bringing out the Dead" while John Travolta chases after them asking for a drink of water in the star-studded Erin Brokovitch-esque "A Civil Action".

Love is in the air as Jason and Craig yack about Praise, the dismal, dour and depressingly honest Aussie love story with a fantastic soundtrack by Dirty Three, before they embark on the sugar rush that is the overly saccharine English romcom of Notting Hill. See you at the movies!

Join Jason and Craig this week as they delve into the world of shouty actors telephoning in their performances in the impressive The Insider before they are snatched up by the lapels and dragged into the Shakespearean tragedy that is Titus. See you at the movies!

Craig returns from his sick box and bumps Sam Altman's Monster to the sidelines to join Jason to chat about probably the highlight of the year so far, bringing Gandalf and George of the Jungle together in the remarkable Gods and Monsters, before they start peering over neighbourhood fences to try to catch their neighbours doing something despicable in the twisty Arlington Road.

With Craig away sick with an infected bioport (and the 'rona), Jason and ChatGPT chat about the body horror shock of the prophetic eXistenZ before diving under the waves to escape from genetically engineered sharks in the weird Jurassic Park / Abyss crossover Deep Blue Sea. See you at the movies!

While Craig attempts to set up a WiFi Mesh using root vegetables, Jason is beamed up to an intergalactic adventure in the wonderful Galaxy Quest, only to return to Earth with a thud, to the tune of "All Star" by Smash Mouth, as he finds himself in the ho-hum superhero parody of Mystery Men.

This week a sickly Craig attempts to steal Jason's limelight but is temporarily expelled from the podcast instead as the pair declare their love for Yes, Minister and enter the filmed stage play of David Mamet's "The Winslow Boy" before seeking psychological help in small-town USA with the understated but very funny "Mumford".

Craig and Jason fight over a mysterious remote control and are transported first back to the melodramatic 1990s, and then to the monochromatic 1950s, to disrupt fictitious lives in the eventually colourful Pleasantville, before time-jumping again to the 1960s where Winona is waiting with a strong female cast to transport us into the world of Girl, Interrupted. See you at the movies!

This week Jason and Craig try the American Romper Stomper on for size with the Edwards Norton and Furlong in the controversial moral tale of American History X before entering the bizarre world of Anthony Banderas's farcical melodrama in Crazy in Alabama. See you at the movies!
