@Devindra@jeffcannata@davechensky Just stumbled upon “Paul T. Goldman” on Peacock, and you guys need to be watching this thing. I don’t even know how to explain it. The Rehearsal meets The Show About the Show meets… idk Borat? #SlashTag
Highly recommend you check out CLOSE, one of the top films of 2022. You may an A24 screener or can catch the limited theatrical release 1/27. Haven’t heard it on the podcast yet and I’m certain you’ll be moved by this one. #slashtag
@thefilmcastpod would love to know what y’all think of the new film Skinamarink once it debuts on Shudder, especially Dave—it’s bound to be a divisive film but those are the best imo :-) #slashtag
Last night, I watched Hit The Road (2021) Dir: Panah Panahi. A family of 4 and their dog take a tender, funny, and revealing road trip through the Iranian country side. An absolute delight I highly recommend. @jeffcannata@Devindra@davechensky#slashtagpic.twitter.com/l8xC8IUYp3
@jeffcannata Could be wrong but seem to recall you like single location movies. The Guilty (2018 original, not the remake) is one of the most tense I've seen. You might enjoy it but does contain material that might be especially upsetting to someone with young children. #slashtag
@Devindra I think you mentioned #SlowHorses on @thefilmcastpod in a positive light. If that's the case, you were right on! I jammed through Seasons 1 & 2 the last couple of days and it's really good! #Slashtag
Has nobody on @thefilmcastpod seen the Emily Blunt miniseries, The English? Truly a sign of there being Too Many Shows. The male lead, Chaske Spencer, is true leading man material. The show has flaws but haunted me for days afterward. #slashtag
#Slashtag (is this still a thing?) "The Gangster, The Cop, The Devil," a fun gangster, crime thriller with the always magnetic Ma Dong-seok aka Don Lee.
Won't change your life, but quite enjoyable & it should get a The Departed style remake.

@thefilmcastpod#slashtag@jeffcannata I would love for somebody to watch Adult Swim's Yule Log. It is comedy horror, and oddly fantastic. Somebody please validate my opinion!

@slashfilm Have you seen or talked about Pachinko on the show? It feels like it's been overlooked this year and is wonderful. Many of the episodes were also directed by Kogonada. It follows a Korean over multiple generations and available on Apple TV+ #slashtag
Hey @thefilmcastpod I don't understand why the TV commentariat isn't talking about the most recent episode of @BobsBurgersFOX, "The Plight Before Christmas". It's weirdly one of the best episodes of TV to come out this year. Consider this a #slashtag recommendation.
For Jeff: as someone who enjoys competency porn, recommending The Alpinist, a 2020 doc (Netflix) that follows mountain climber Marc-André Leclerc. Watching him climb is oddly very calming as he seems to just “vibe” with a mountain. It’s great to see his mastery at work #slashtag
Just finished #Farha and can’t stop crying. A beautiful, heartbreaking and incredibly important film about the Nakba. It’s available to stream on Netflix. Please watch and share! #FreePalestine#Slashtagpic.twitter.com/8FiJx4ah5B
This holiday season you should really watch 8 bit Christmas on HBO MAX. I think it would be right up your alley. It is a great movie with great late 80's vibes. I strongly recommend it. #slashtag@jeffcannata, @Devindra and @davechensky.
I watched Vengeance (2022) Dir: B. J. Novak last night. A hybrid comedy/noir/mystery that like it's protagonist has a restless energy and tries to do many things. Some ideas and elements are executed better than others but over all an interesting directing debut. #slashtagpic.twitter.com/QZSYqeO3B9
@jeffcannata, have you checked out Ghosts yet? It seems like the light half-hour ensemble comedy that you're always looking for to watch with the Mrs. Lots of man-out-of-time jokes and a great cast #slashtag
#slashtag@jeffcannata You should be watching Young Rock on Peacock. It's very funny, with lots of great stories about early WWF with wrestlers hanging around. From the very witty Nahnatchka Khan.
Really enjoyed #Spirited. Very clever, funny, and heartfelt deconstruction of A Christmas Carol with fantastic music and — something I don’t often appreciate— choreography. I guess it is possible to make new classics. #slashtag
