We’re joined by professional storyteller Tom Pleasant for three films that don’t follow a traditional narrative structure. SPOILERS throughout. We start with The Limey (1999) by Steven Soderbergh, with Terence Stamp telling Peter Fonda he’s coming. Next up is Memento (2000) by Christopher Nolan, with Guy Pearce lying to himself in fifteen minute increments. We finish with indie horror genre-defier Triangle (2009) and its Mobius strip structure and Melissa George attacking herselves with an ax. Also: Geeeeeeeeeeeezer. Allan Graf. Kneel before Zod. Greendale Community College. Cock Trumps. Fury (2014). Stephen Tobolowsky, bing! Gunmen of the Apocalypse. We misdate Out of Sight (1998), Insomnia (2002), and L.A. Confidential (1997) which is apt for this week’s theme. Use of Weapons (1990). Knights of the Old Republic. Charon the ferryman. Final girl. A seagull shaman curse. Corpse disposal. We play a game of “Arse Backwards”
