The Arkin Brothers Talk About Movies

Sylvester Stallone is a good guy. Wesley Snipes is a bad guy. But they cause so many problems when they fight it out that we decide to freeze them and send them to the future. Talk about kickin' the can down the road. Also starring Sandra Bullock, Denis Leary, and Benjamin Bratt.

We had a surprise visit from the supremely talented and delightful Dana Delaney as we discussed this amazing movie. You can catch our conversation here. And if you've never seen Light Sleeper, you owe to yourself to give it a look. You won't be disappointed.

Eddie Murphy is a hostage negotiator for the SFPD. We'd believe it. That guy could talk himself out of . . . or into . . . anything. Here he teams up with a sharpshooter to go after a dangerous jewel thief.

Capping of our month-long exploration of the rom-com, we delve into this classic from the early aughts. Renee Zellweger stars alongside Colin Firth and Hugh Grant, with admirable assists from Jim Broadbent and Embeth Davidtz. Screenplay by Andrew Davies (House of Cards), Richard Curtis (Love Actually, Notting Hill, Four Weddings and a Funeral), and Helen Fielding, from her book. Let's see if we can make Anthony's head explode.

No, it's not a crazy caper about a stolen election starring the craziest of the crazy, My Pillow Guy Mike Lindell. It's the next installment in Rom Com March, starring Doris Day and Rock Hudson as a pair of singles who get their party lines crossed. Written by Stanley Shapiro (That Touch of Mink) and Maurice Richlin (The Pink Panther). Also starring Tony Randall and Thelma Ritter.

Rom Com March continues with this classic of the form pairing two incomparable stars: Audrey Hepburn and Peter O'Toole. Also featuring Eli Wallach, Hugh Griffith, and Charles Boyer. Directed by William Wyler (Roman Holiday, Ben Hur, Funny Girl). And boy, did we have a lot of stories about folks in this movie!

She's American. He's English. She's a world-famous movie star, he's an ordinary schlub. But they're both adorable. Can they make it work? We wonder . . . and discuss. Starring Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant and a whole bunch of Brits. Ah, rom-coms. Something to make Anthony's head explode . . . maybe.

Hammer keeps on a'hammerin' away, this time bringing back Peter Cushing as the complicated and tortured Gustav Vile, I'm sorry . . . Weil. Watch as he battles, the forces of evil, or twins of evil, or vampires, or lust, or . . . whatever. You figure it out. Also starring the fabulous Collinson twins and Damien Thomas and his hair as Count Drac . . . I mean, Count Karnstein.

Continuing British Horror February and our string of Hammer movies, we discuss The Curse of the Werewolf, which departs from traditional werewolf lore in ways that are sometimes successful and sometimes . . . not. Starring the estimable Oliver Reed.

Really he must be. He's causing all kinds of trouble. British Horror February continues with another Hammer classic, again directed by Terrence Fisher and starring Peter Cushing. We can't get enough of them. Also boasting the wonderful Veronica Carlson, Simon Ward, and Freddie Jones (Dune, The Elephant Man).
