<p>Do you enjoy listening to people talk about films? What about those films that may not show up at the local multiplex but are instead showing at the smaller specialty theater across town? Then "Footcandle Films" may be the show for you. Each month, the hosts discuss and review one "smaller" film in-depth, discuss upcoming film news, and give recommendations on films that you may not be aware of, ones that you haven’t remembered in a while, or ones that are worth your time checking out. And all the while, the conversation never gets too "high-brow" or pretentious. Just two guys who enjoy talking about movies. Your Hosts: Alan Jackson and Chris Frye, founders of the <a href="https://www.footcandle.org" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Footcandle Film Society.</a></p>

THE PHOENICIAN SCHEME marks Wes Anderson’s thirteenth feature film (if you count the collection of 4 shorts based on Roald Dahl stories he did for Netflix in 2024 as one film). Benicio Del Toro stars as wealthy businessman Zsa-zsa Korda who decides to appoint his only daughter, a nun, as sole heir to his estate. As Korda embarks on a dubious new enterprise (the scheme of the title) he & his daughter become the target of rival tycoons, foreign terrorists, & determined assassins. We’ve got a review plus some movie news and a recommendation of a film you might want to seek out.
