Conversational movie analysis from a multidisciplinary artist perspective. I explore films through philosophical, artistic, and personal lenses - from indie gems to classic Hollywood, plus the occasional rant about the movie-going experience itself. Whether it's unpacking the deeper meaning in Lost in Translation or explaining why Castaway's ending hits different, these are authentic discussions for film lovers who think beyond the surface. New episodes every Saturday.

"they live" | the fight for truth and perception

In John Carpenter’s They Live, truth hides behind illusion — literally.

In this video, I break down the meaning of the now-legendary alley fight, why Frank refuses to “put on the glasses,” and how this struggle mirrors our own resistance to seeing what’s real.From its unforgettable “OBEY” imagery to Carpenter’s haunting blues score, They Live remains one of the boldest commentaries on media, control, and waking up.👁️ Watch, reflect, and tell me: what does this film say to you today?🎬 Directed by John Carpenter | Starring Roddy Piper & Keith David— Troy (D) Ramos🕹️ Subscribe for more cinematic deep dives and personal takes on film & meaning.#TheyLive #JohnCarpenter #MovieAnalysis #FilmDiscussion #SciFiMovies #CultClassics #TroyDRamos #FilmReview #Cinema #1980sMovies #Obey #MovieBreakdown #RoddyPiper #Truth #PhilosophyAndFilm
