Cinema Cemetery: Episode 82: The Hurt Locker (2009)07 Dec 202300:25:31

 In today's episode, we don our bomb disposal suits and venture into the intense and gritty terrain of Kathryn Bigelow's masterful war drama – "The Hurt Locker."


Released in 2008, "The Hurt Locker" takes us deep into the heart of the Iraq War, following the harrowing experiences of an elite U.S. Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team. As we navigate the tension-fueled landscapes of Baghdad, Bigelow skillfully thrusts us into the psychological battlefield, exploring the complex relationships among the soldiers and the high-stakes pressure of their perilous missions.

We'll explore the film's impact on the war genre, its portrayal of the toll of conflict on the human psyche, and the remarkable performances that brought this gripping narrative to life.  Will the Hurt Locker be a bomb, or bust? Or Both? Find out next time on Cinema Cemetery.

"This coin got here the same way I did"

Set in the desert in 1980, No Country For Old Men follows a drug deal gone wrong, a retiring sheriff, and man in the right (wrong) place at the right (wrong) time, and a force of nature.  As characters find themselves caught up in the circumstances beyond their scope, all must ask themselves how much control they truly have over the chaotic present.  Based on the novel by Cormac McCarthy, No Country For Old Men continues to satisfy and confuse.  But is it for you?  Find out here.

“We deal in deception here. What we do not deal in is self-deception”. Welcome to the Irish mob in Boston of the early 2000s. As Billy Costigan (DiCaprio) goes undercover to infiltrate the villainous Frank Costello’s (Nicholson) gang, he has to deal with not only the crimes of the week, but his own self doubt as well.  All the while, Colin Sullivan (Damon) works undercover for Costello as a cop.  When it becomes clear each group as a mole, it becomes a countdown to some which be caught first.

With an all-star cast and an established director, The Departed was an easy pick for Best Picture in 2006.  Does it still hold up today?  Find out now on Cinema Cemetery.

Cinema Cemetery: Episode 77- Million Dollar Baby (2004)02 Dec 202200:33:57

“Anyone can lose one fight.” “Always protect yourself.” “Well, you’ve got me” All simple but effective pieces of advice from Frankie (Clint Eastwood) to Maggie (Hillary Swank) as this over-the-hill trainer helps an past-her-prime boxer in the making.  Starting as a boxing story, yet morphing into something far more serious, Million Dollar Baby tells the tale of persistence and avoiding regret through multiple characters.  And as tragedy strikes, they must ask themselves how to keep fighting.


Does Million Dollar Baby still stand as the champ nearly 20 years later? Find out today:

"...And All That Jazz!" Set in the fast paced of nightlife of 1920s Chicago, this musical follows two aspiring showgirls turned criminals as they murder their lovers in a fit of rage.  A show about dreams, wrongs, crimes, and spectacle, Chicago combines the realism of the roaring 20s with the showmanship of a Fosse musical.

“My name is Lester Burnham. This is my neighborhood; this is my street; this is my life. I am 42 years old; in less than a year I will be dead.”  These opening lines set the stage for American Beauty, a turn-of-the-20th-century picture about the beauty…and dysfunction…of suburban American life.  As Lester awakens to the changes he needs to make to his everyday life, his wife and daughter follow similar journeys, along with his mysterious next-door neighbor.  As Lester’s death day looms, the culprits seem to multiply.  Part drama, part comedy, and all dysfunctional does American Beauty still deserve to be seen?  Find out today.

Cinema Cemetery: Episode 71- Shakespeare In Love (1998)31 Mar 202200:31:37

“It always works out?” “Why?” “I don’t know; it’s a mystery.” A play-within-a-play, or rather a play-beyond-a-play, Shakespeare in Love tells the fictional tale of the writing of another fictional tale as a young, upstart Shakespeare struggles to create a new comedy all while living a real-life romance/tragedy in the real world. With an all-star 1990s cast, and copious Shakespeare references and Easter eggs, Shakespeare in Love combines the forbidden love with a Finnes brother from English Patient with the star-crossed lovers of Titanic, all mixed with a Victorian setting.  Largely seen as a surprise in 1998, has Shakespeare proved to be a show for all time?  Find out today!

“I’m king of the world!” “Jack, I’m flying!” “A real man makes his own luck” “I’ll never let go Jack” “A woman’s heart is a deep ocean of secrets”.  You know the quotes.  You’ve heard about the event, now it’s time to take a look at the film itself.  Nominated for a record-tying 14 Oscars and winning a record-trying 11, Titanic took the world by storm at the end of 1997.  Not only was the film the highest-grossing domestic movie of all time for 12 years, but still holds the record for the longest run at #1.  But for all its awards, does Titanic live up to it’s own hype?  Find out now!

For the heart is an organ of fire.”  Set at both the beginning and end of the Second World War, The English Patient tells the tale of the eponymous Count Almaszy, burn victim and hospice patient attempting to tell his story and recover his memory in his final days.  As the consequences of his actions circle, other characters struggle to find themselves as they process the waning days of the war.  Meanwhile, Almaszy (Ralph Fiennes) tells his tale of love, war, and mapmaking in the desert.  Is The English Patient’s story one worth telling?  Find out today.

“Fight and you may die.  Run and you will live…at least for a little while.  They may take our lives, but they will never take our freedom!” These iconic words by William Wallace lead off a Scottish resistance against a long-standing English occupation.  As Wallace’s life is shattered by a brutal English lord, he leads a brave band of warriors to fight back against a far financially and technically superior foe.  Will Wallace and the Scots succeed where others have failed?  Find out this week on Cinema Cemetery.

“Mama always said life was like a box of chocolates.  You never know what you’re gonna get”. With this classic line, we meet Forest Gump, the man who “truly” wrote the second half of the 20th century and influenced many of the great movers and shakers along the way.  From his humble beginnings living with his single mother in boarding house to serving in Vietnam, to meeting the President (x3) to starting the jogging craze, Forest shows the power of persistence, and positivity, even when told he “can’t sit here”.  Is Forest still worth “running” to see?  Find out this week on Cinema Cemetery.

Cinema Cemetery: Bonus Episode 4- Rope (1948)31 Dec 202100:32:28

"I've always thought it was out of character for David to drink anything as corrupt as whiskey."

"Out of character for him to be murdered too."

Rope tells the story of two friends, Brandon and Phillip, who set out to put a horrific experiment to the test: Is it possible to murder purely for the sake of danger and killing? As the two do away with their friend David, they proceed to then host a party with their mutual friends (and David's family) all while the dead body remains hidden in the room.  Filmed in a "single" shot, this Hitchcock experiment ramps the tension to 11 for the full 80-minute runtime. 

Take a look at this bonus episode to wrap up the year.  See you in 2022!

Cinema Cemetery: Episode 65- Unforgiven (1992)13 Dec 202100:28:19

"I've killed women and children. I've killed everything that walks or crawls At one time or another. And I'm here to kill you, Little Bill, for what you done to Ned."  Unforgiven, the Clint Eastwood anti-Western from 1992 tells the tale of William Munny, reformed outlaw who is brought back into the assassin game after learning of an unprovoked attack on a young woman. As Munny (Eastwood) struggles with the choice to return to his old ways, Sheriff Bill Dagget (Gene Hackman) takes whatever steps he can to keep the peace in his town…even if that means getting his hands dirty.  A story of conviction and personal codes colliding, this film shows the consequences of two men who feel no need to search for forgiveness…and have none to give.  Will the film be worthy of your time?  Find out today.

Cinema Cemetery: Episode 62 and 63- Driving Miss Daisy and Dances With Wolves (1989-1990)09 Nov 202100:49:19

Welcome to a special Cinema Cinemetery Double Episode as we close out the 1980s and begin the 1990s with Driving Miss Daisy and Dances With Wolves. Here we'll be exploring two films which couldn't be more different; one exploring racial differences in the mid 20th century south and the other examing the plight of the Lakota Sioux on the American plains.  Nevertheless, both movies combine 80s drama with 90s schmaltz for some interesting conversation.

Should these films be a part of your next double-header?  Find out now!

Cinema Cemetery: Episode 61- Rain Man (1988)12 Oct 202100:25:07

“I don’t have my books, I’m going to be bookless”.  1988’s Rain Man tells the story of Charlie Babbit, a quasi-successful businessman looking to continue his string of high-risk, high-reward deals.  When his estranged father passes, he initially thinks he’s hit the windfall, only to find nearly all inheritance has been sent to his long-lost brother Raymond.  Raymond, an “autistic savant” in the film’s terms lives life in a facility, unable to interact with the world on his own.  When Charlie decides to “kidnap” Raymond to gain leverage to regain his inheritance, a cross-country road trip begins.  Part drama, part comedy, part Tom Cruise, and part Dustin Hoffman, Rain Man is a little bit of everything.  Does lightning strike thrice for Mr. Hoffman?  Find out here.

Cinema Cemetery Episode 60: The Last Emperor (1987)04 Oct 202100:29:04

“The Emperor has been a prisoner in his own palace since the day that he was crowned, and has remained a prisoner since he abdicated. But now he's growing up, he may wonder why he's the only person in China who may not walk out of his own front door. I think the Emperor is the loneliest boy on Earth.”  1987’s The Last Emperor tells the tale of Pu Yi, the eponymous last emperor of China.  Following his childhood, abdication, and eventual alignment with Imperial Japan to regain his power, the movie reveals some never-before-seen locations from China’s Forbidden City and a narrative as Shakespearean as it is historical.  Does the Last Emperor continue the trend of solid epics, or does it fade into history with the rest?

“Looking back, we did not fight the enemy, we fought ourselves, and the enemy was in us.” Set in the thick of the Vietnam War, Platoon tells the tale of naive enlisted soldier Chris Taylor as he realizes the horrors of war both beyond, and within, the Platoon.  A film in the spirit of The Deer Hunter and All Quiet on the Western Front, Oliver Stone’s winning film depicts a cinematic version of his own experience.  As reason and madness wrestle for control, will the Platoon find itself in one piece, even if it survives the battle?  Find out now:

Cinema Cemetery Episode 57: Amadeus (1984)19 Aug 202100:29:39

“All I wanted was to sing to God. He gave me that longing... and then made me mute. Why? Tell me that.”  Amadeus tells the tale of “dueling” composers Mozart and Salieri.  As Salieri seeks to gain fame and glory with hard work and political gamesmanship, the former child prodigy Mozart eclipses him at every turn, while trying to avoid his own demons.  This piece of historical fiction takes a dramatized look at the flawed but unforgettable work of Mozart, and the man who later calls himself his “murderer”.  While Mozart’s music still lives on, does his movie deserve another look?  Find out now!

- Emma Horton: No, she always does this when the lines busy. It's fine.”

Welcome to the dysfunctional relationship of Aurora and Emma.  Terms of Endearment follows the relationship of a mother and daughter through marriage, moving, Jack Nicholson, and cancer.  Starring just about everyone famous from the 70s and 90s, this film continues the 80s tradition of being a story about normal people having a rough day/week/year.  Is Terms still endearing?  Find out here.

“If I can't win, I won't run! “If you won't run, you can't win”. Long before Michael Scott said Wayne Gretzky said you miss 100% of the shots you never take, there was Chariots of Fire. This 1981 Best Picture explores two competing runners in the lead-up to the 1924 Olympics as they struggle with everything from form and faith to religion and regulations.  As Harold Abrahams struggles to navigate being Jewish in the early 20th century England, all while training professionally in an age that only respects amateurism, Rev. Eric Liddell debates whether to serve God from the pulpit, or on the track.  An odd mix of 1980s music and diegetic hymns, this true tale depicts not only a lot of slow-motion running but the story behind the racers as well.  Does Chariots of Fire still deserve Gold?  Find out now!

“Maybe you were stronger.  Have you ever considered that? That maybe you were the stronger one?”  While main character may have been stronger, this movie is just Ordinary.  Ordinary People that is.  This 1980 film tells the tell of a family coping with the loss of a child, as the parents and brother react in vastly different ways.  Featuring against-type performances from Mary Tyler Moore and Judd Hirsch, and co-starring Donald Sutherland while introducing Timothy Hutton, this unassuming movie took the awards by storm to start the decade.  Does the movie stand out over 40 years later, or has it just become Ordinary?  Find out this week on Cinema Cemetery

“I don't want to move to a city where the only cultural advantage is being able to make a right turn on a red light”.  Welcome to Annie Hall and the world according to Woody Allen.  Part comedy, part romance, part tragedy, part animated film, and all neurosis, this classic film reimagines what a comedy can be.  Starring Diane Keaton as the eponymous Annie Hall, and Woody Allen as Alvie Singer, this film works as an autopsy of a romance, and perhaps a city, that’s time has passed.  Has the world moved on since 1977, or would Alvie Singer still be in analysis even today?  Find out this week on Cinema Cemetery.

Cinema Cemetery: Episode 45- The Godfather (1972)22 Feb 202100:46:10

“I’m gonna make him an offer he can’t refuse.” The year is 1945.  Fresh off an Allied victory in the Second World War, a young Michael Corleone returns home for his sister’s wedding.  Here, he finds the “family business” is still alive, and well as friends and enemies alike line up to meet with the eponymous Godfather.  Things, however, are about to take a turn as the Five Families struggle to deal with the incoming narcotics industry encroaching on their city. After a failed assassination attempt on Vito Corleone, Michael and “the family” must decide their next moves carefully… 

 This 1972 classic needs little introduction but does it still stand as one of the best of all time.  Starring Al Pacino, James Caan, Robert Duvall, and Marlon Brando, The Godfather tells the tale of war, politics, mystery, and gangsters in an uncertain time.  Should you leave the gun, or take the cannoli?  Find out now!

Cinema Cemetery: Episode 44- The French Connection (1971)15 Feb 202100:30:47

“Just answer me this: Do you…still pick your feet in Poughkeepsie?” A valid question and concern asked repeatedly by the one and only Popeye Doyle.  This unconventional cop with a great intuition…at least most of the time…follows his next big lead as he tracks down a big drug deal in the making.  With the support of his partner, and the begrudging help of his superiors, Popeye played by Gene Hackman shows the true success and drudgery of early 70s New York police work, along with one of the most thrilling car chases captured on camera.  Will Popeye get his man, or will that subway car slip away?  Check out Cinema Cemetery for the answer!

“No bastard ever won a war dying for his country.  He won it by making some other poor bastards die for his country”.  Meet General George Patton; three-star general and five-star loose canon on a mission to not only win the war but battle as much as possible.  A skilled military tactician, but a without a shred of political skill, Patton’s complex characteristics were both invaluable and disastrous to the Allied forces.  This war epic follows the final years of World War 2 from Patton’s perspective.  Will military victory be enough to satisfy Patton…or the viewer?  Find out this week on Cinema Cemetery!

Cinema Cemetery Episode 42: Midnight Cowboy (1969)25 Jan 202100:31:33

“I’m not a f’real cowboy, but I’m one helluva stud!” The year is 1969 and movies have changed more in the past decade than 1929-1939.  Midnight Cowboy tells the story of two misfits trying to make their way in an unforgiving world. Joe Buck ventures to New York City with the “dream” of making it as a male hustler, but finds himself completely clueless in a world that has long since passed by the ideals of his youth.  His best/only companion is a sickly con-man named Rizzo who’s skilled at stealing just enough to keep them alive.  A hugely unconventional film, Midnight Cowboy pulls no punches with it’s content as it embraces the gritty “New Hollywood” tone.  Does it still deserve a look, or should you keep “walking here!”?  Find out…now.

Time for some “reviewing the situation” with 1968’s Oliver! The last of the five musicals over the past decade to take the top prize, this show asks you to “consider yourself at home” with the story of Oliver in his journey from rags to more rags, to riches, to rags, to riches again. Part showstopper, part social commentary, part drama, this film is one of the most unique musicals so far…for better or worse.  Find out of Oliver! is “your funeral” or will make you ask for more..now!

“Sol: a needle pulling thread.  La: a…uh…note to follow sol.”  It’s not always Shakespeare, but The Sound of Music keeps the lyrical tradition going with this 1965 musical.  Starring Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer, this somewhat true story tells the tale of young Maria, a failing nun-candidate charged with bringing order to an Austrian Captain’s household (seven children and all) as war looms in Europe.  Part comedy, part wartime drama, and all classic musical, this iconic movie continues to serve as the mark by which most other film musicals are measured.  Does it deserve the praise?  Find out this week on Cinema Cemetery.

Cinema Cemetery Bonus Episode 3: The Muppet Christmas Carol13 Dec 202000:41:21

“It was dumb! It was obvious! It was pointless! It was…short.  We loved it!’  Hopefully, you’ll feel that way about this week’s special Christmas Bonus episode about the holiday favorite The Muppet Christmas Carol. Released in 1992, the Muppet’s fourth major film adds a musical, and Muppet-filled take on the Charles Dickens classic.  Michael Caine stars as Scrooge while Gonzo and Rizzo take the audience to the past, present, and future as Three Spirits try to save Scrooge’s soul.  Is the promise of excitement one this movie will keep?  Find out today!

Cinema Cemetery: Episode 37- My Fair Lady (1964)06 Dec 202000:42:45

“No, you didn’t ‘siiiie’ it.  You didn’t even ‘say’ it.”  Cinema Cemetery returns to another 60s musical as My Fair Lady takes center stage.  The movie based on the musical based on the play based on the myth, this show tells the tale of Prof. Henry Higgins and his efforts to train a poor flower girl to speak (and act) like a lady.  Despite Higgins’ self-proclaimed brilliance at language, he finds he has met his match with Eliza’s tenacity.  Rex Harrison revives his stage role and Audrey Hepburn fills in for Julie Andrews in this 1964 adaption.  Is My Fair Lady still worth getting to the church on time, or will it take more than a little bit of luck?  Find out...now!

Cinema Cemetery Episode 36: Tom Jones (1963)01 Dec 202000:33:57

“Well, there’s another one gone!”  Tough talk for a cemetery but reflective of this 1963 Best Picture winner Tom Jones.  In a complete departure from last year’s Lawerence of Arabia, Tom Jones is part comedy, part experiment, part history, and all bizarre.  Albert Finney stars are the eponymous Tom, a low-born adopted son in a wealthy house.  When accessed wrongly of a crime, Tom sets out to make his own way in the world.  Will Tom’s series of unfortunate events lead him to happiness, or will he leave a trail of chaos wherever he goes?  Find out this week on Cinema Cemetery.

Welcome to the West Side as the Jets and Sharks take their feud from the playground to the dance floor, to…another playground.  This contemporary Romeo and Juliet tells the tale of Tony and Maria, two star-crossed lovers who attempt to bridge the gap between two warring groups of immigrants in New York in the middle of the 20th century. Directed by Robert Wise, this classic musical continues our Oscar musical streak of the 1950s and 1960s.  Is West Side Story still “the most beautiful [movie] you’ve ever heard”, or should you “forget that [show] and find another?”  Find out…now!

Cinema Cemetery Episode 34: The Aparment (1960)16 Nov 202000:29:00

“The wrong key? No wonder I couldn’t get into the executive washroom this morning.”

“The executive washroom? I couldn’t get into my apartment!”

In a pre-Air BNB world, Mr. Baxter currently boosts his career loaning use of his apartment out to his superiors looking for a convenient place to hide out from their real lives.  While advantageous to his career, Baxter realizes he has a tiger by the tail when one night he finds the secretary Ms. Kubelik in his room after an apparent overdose.  Part comedy, part drama, all star-power, The Apartment is a simple show about the unintended consequences of Air BNB life and how to succeed in business without truly trying.  Should this film get a promotion?  Find out this week on Cinema Cemetery.
