Would you answer a call from beyond the stars? Because Andrew Patterson wants you to listen closely. Kevin, Silvia, and John explore The Vast of Night, the micro-budget sci-fi mystery that mesmerized audiences with long takes and even longer conversations. From its daring formal choices to its nostalgic embrace of old-school storytelling, this 1950s New Mexico tale of strange signals and small-town wonder raises the question: can style and substance still surprise us in the streaming age?

Would you sell your soul for success? Because Oliver Stone wants to show you the price. Kevin, Silvia, and John review Wall Street, the film that made greed good and turned Gordon Gekko into a cultural icon. From power suits to insider trading and the seduction of the American Dream gone rotten, Stone's razor-sharp dissection of 1980s excess raises the question: did we learn the lesson, or did we miss the point entirely?
