Audio commentaries are the embryonic form of podcasting, and this show looks at the art of filmmaking through the greatest of these tracks. From comedy to drama, live-action to animation, good and bad, we run the gamut of cinema in a lighthearted, hopefully enlightening fashion. It’s the only commentary-centric show that matters because it’s the only one that exists. (As far as we know.)

For our eighty-first episode, we’re amazingly joined by the great Brian Saur (“Just the Discs” and “Pure Cinema Podcast”) for a discussion of the audio commentary for Richard C. Sarafian’s car-go-fast 1971 classic “Vanishing Point”. We discuss the enigma that is Kowalski, the late Gene Hackman almost driving the iconic white Dodge Challenger, the trauma inflicted by the existence of Noovie, inspired triple features, the hero car stolen by a sex worker named Misty, alternate offensive names for the Super Soul character, whether or not Sarafian is accidentally the American Michelangelo Antonioni, and so much more.
Ryan’s Recommendations: “The Freshman” (1925), “The Kid Brother” (1927), and “Speedy” (1928)
