[Fantastic Fest 2022] Disappear Completely: A Morality Play of Contemporary Witchcraft

Movie Madness Episode 331: Women With Power(s) And Some Bros Too
Erik Childress @ Now Playing Network
- Excerpt: The first show of October begins with nine movie reviews from Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy.
The Friendship Dilemma Episode 14: Tombstone
Erik Childress @ Now Playing Network
- Excerpt: Though the 1993 film is not known for its depiction of the women of the Old West, Morgan (Gire, not Earp) has found something of value in at least one of them. Briefly. But this is actually one of the discussions that was the inspiration for this very podcast. What friendship in this movie (besides Wyatt & Doc) was Erik (and most every fan of this movie) overlooking? Does its momentary exchange say more about their relationship than the majority of male/female friendships we see throughout cinema? Is this film as good as the reputation it has developed since it was initially dumped on St. Crispin’s Day (actually Christmas Day?) And just what tier does this friendship belong to on the newly-formed scale by Erik and Morgan?
