    The Searchers (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    This week's Lane's Frame is The Searchers (1957) directed by John Ford! After a weirdly intense discussion about the ethics of documentarian intervention in their subjects, we go loooong talking about John Wayne's star power, this movie's thorny racism and characters, and the gorgeous cinematography tying it all together. Plus: a little game.

    Read excerpt

    In honor of Dolly Parton's recent passing, this week's Rick's Pick is Nine to Five (1980) directed by Colin Higgins. After a brief intro about serial killer weaponry (?), we discuss this movie's progressive politics, uneven pacing, and hilarious performances from Dolly, Lily Tomlin, and Jane Fonda.

    Read excerpt

    This week's Two Reeler is Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey (2026)! We cover our histories with Nolan, argue over people's expectations for this movie, and drive quite a few overplayed jokes into the ground. Plus: misophonia warning.
