On the F1 race tracks of film podcasts, Fear and Loathing in Cinema sets itself apart with its irreverent blend of pop culture critique, nostalgic deep-dives, and a razor-sharp, at times almost uncomfortably candid, dissection of cinematic relics that were once scorned but now, with the benefit of time, seem worthy of a second look. Hosted by a group of unpredictable yet undeniably insightful voices; Bryan Kluger, a media director with a sharp sense of irony of offensive things; Dan Moran, a lawyer who brings an often absurd legal perspective of the film industry and Kevin Costner; Preston Barta, a film critic with a taste for the heart-warmingly obscure branch of cinema; and Chelsea Nicole, a culture critic who digs into the nuances of social dynamics and horror; Fear and Loathing in Cinema Podcast thrives in that rare space between sincere analysis and gut-busting humor.
On Episode #124 of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, we revved our engines for a fast-paced thrill ride and instead crashed gently into a velvet-lined existential romance with Bobby Deerfield, Sydney Pollack’s 1977 film that stars a post-Godfather, pre-Scarface Al Pacino; looking like a haunted Calvin Klein ad and speaking at a volume normally reserved for guided meditation tapes. Our usual pit crew was one man short; Dan went MIA, possibly off racing in Austin; but we were lucky enough to be joined by The Atkin Report’s own Hillary Atkin, beaming in from L.A. and gamely taking the passenger seat with me, Preston, and Chelsea as we coasted through this curious cinematic detour. You’d think with Formula 1 in the first scene of the film, and the actual F1 racing legends behind the wheel, this would be something in the vein of Rush or whatever high-octane trailer just dropped for Brad Pitt’s shiny new speed flick. But no. Bobby Deerfield is not so much about racing as it is about... lingering. Lingering glances, lingering silences, and lingering shots of Pacino brooding in a pristine European villa like a man who forgot what he was brooding about.
