CTS_ep63 Crimson Peak

Published: Dec. 28, 2016, 6:38 a.m.

Episode 63 is a return to form. Jolyon is back with Will and Richard for a discussion of Guillermo del Toro’s “Crimson Peak” (2015). But first, there’s a lot of catching up to do. Jolyon has a great list of things he watched while ill. There are some gems here, so get out your pens and paper, dear listeners! Then Richard watched “The Ref” for some Christmas cheer followed by a whole list of movies that fall into the category of “what I expected”. Which doesn’t mean bad. Well, maybe sometimes. Will wants to know how many Benjis they went through in the making of several “Benji” movies. And why was “Lassie” often a lad? This only perpetuated the glass ceiling for female dogs in Hollywood for decades! Did you know you can tell Jeff Goldblum’s age by his ears? It’s true! So, on to Crimson Peak. Is this the one starring Sean Connery as a Russian submarine captain? No, we’re pretty sure that was another film entirely! This one is pretty, all seem to agree. Is there enough substance here or did del Toro get sidetracked with Hobbits? Listen and see what we think! There’s some spooky digital stuff, a particularly gruesome kill and some great looking sets. Did we mention there’s also incest? Well, let’s just say that if you’re looking around the room trying to figure out who the evil siblings are, you are they. Go on, listen to the episode that teaches you that shovel beats knife, but always bring a gun to a shovel fight! Find us on Instagram, where we are @chewingthescenery or easily find us on Facebook.
