What 2 Guys 5 Movies is All About
Hi, all! 2 Guys 5 Movies, a long-form film podcast, will be entering its third full year in 2022. The "primary" podcast features top five lists from various genres and subgenres. We have a wide range in our over 130 episodes. In 2020, we also added a weekly "supplemental" podcast, The Quick Cage, where co-host Frank Pellicone watched and reviewed every Nicolas Cage movie during an 23-month span. In 2022, a new supplemental podcast will begin weekly called The Spin Chagrin, where a ludicrous subgenre will be chosen randomly and Frank will have to watch and review the movie. This will be in addition to the main feed, where we will continue with extensive looks in top five lists.

If you listen to the podcast, you've found that we're both big fans of horror filmmaker Mike Flanagan. Much like two years ago during October when we took time to talk about his The Haunting of Hill House series, Frank and Chris binged The Haunting of Bly Manor, and tonight we took time to discuss it. If stay non-spoilery for about fifteen minutes before moving into spoilers, but we note the transition inside the episode. We urge you to watch the series regardless of this podcast.

There are some movies you loved growing up, but then look back on after decades have passed and realize, with a cringe, that there's insensitive, problematic, or downright racist and sexist portrayals. This week, 2 Guys 5 Movies examines what Frank considers the best of these problematic movies. His list includes Brian De Palama's Scarface, Audrey Hepburn's iconic, Breakfast at Tiffany's, the Blake Edwards-Peter Sellers collaboration, The Party, the adaptation of the hit musical, Grease, and Clint Eastwood's Dirty Harry.
