DAC Episode 347 - Red Dawn (1984)
/“Because… we live here”.
DAC Episode 341 - Steve Jobs (2015)
/Is there anyone on Earth who looks less like Apple founder Steve Jobs than Michael Fassbender? Scientifically speaking, no. Researchers have identified several species of paramecia that bear a greater resemblance to Jobs than Fassbender. Nevertheless, Fassbender radiates a kind of blinkered intensity that could only belong to a monomaniac on Jobs’ scale. Pair that with Sorkin’s script and it makes for a surprisingly gripping and focused portrait of obsession. Listen below or find us on your podcaster of choice.
DAC Episode 340 - The Founder (2016)
/a live dog who should have been a dead lion.
Who would have thought to make a movie about Ray Kroc, a man with the personality of a Big Mac wrapper? The people who made The Founder, I guess.
DAC Episode 339 - The American President (1995)
/sigh.
Here’s Adam and Aidan attempting to square their love of Aaron Sorkin with 1995’s The American President, a movie in which Michael Douglas plays the very best president. He’s almost brought low, but he fixes his problems by giving a big impromptu speech at the end, restoring America’s virility in the process. Is this podcast an autopsy? Therapy? Listen below (or find us on your podcatcher of choice) and decide for yourselves.
DAC Episode 338 - The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996)
