PLP – Pod Shots – A Simple Plan

In this episode, I am joined by regular Plain Label Podcast co-host Rachel Szelag to discuss the 1998 film A Simple Plan!  We discuss the Sam Raimi picture which features some very stylized acting choices which was appreciated a bit more by one of our hosts than the other.  We discuss the twists and turns of the plot and of course mention the “what would you do” question that is paramount in this film.  It’s always fun chatting with Mrs. Szelag and this episode is no different, check it out!

PLP – Pod Shots – JCVD Double Feature

In this episode, I am joined by returning guest Shawn Pryor as we discuss the one and only Jean-Claude Van Damme!  We begin with a discussion on one of the earlier Van Damme films, Kickboxer!  We discuss what works, what’s comically bad, and the nightmarish presence of Tong Po!  We then briefly discuss the upcoming Kickboxer remake before moving into a much different film, JCVD.  We talk about the film and what it is trying to do by having the audience sympathize with Van Damme.  We mention all the plot elements and the similarities to his real life before really digging in on what we describe as, “the scene”.  It’s always a good time having Shawn on and I think this was a particularly strong episode, check it out!

PLP – Pod Shots – Gone Girl

In this episode, I am joined by returning guest Sean Stangland as we discuss the 2014 film Gone Girl! We begin with a discussion of Sean’s history with the film and then wade through tangents to discuss the plot, the performances, the fact that this is the first non-science fiction film Sean and I have discussed, and finally we get to the end. We mention all the spoilers in this film so if you haven’t seen it, please watch the film first, or be spoiled. Sean is one of my favorite guests to have on and it’s always a good time discussing film with him. Join us won’t you?
