  • A "Testament" from TIFF
    Sep 17 2025

    This week Murtada is joined by journalist Matt Huff to discuss the films of the Toronto International Film Festival and answer some of its burning questions. Why will everyone be calling “The Testament of Ann Lee” star Amanda Seyfried “mother ?” Is John Early, the genius of silliness in “Maddie’s Secret, the millennial Douglas Sirk? Why is “Hamnet” so sad and who’s a “Good Boy?” Other films discussed include Oscar Isaac in “Frankenstein’ and Angelina Jolie’s “Couture.” Read Murtada’s review of “Palestine ‘36.”

  • Eddington, Superman, and Taxi zum Klo (the actual film of the summer)
    Jul 30 2025

    This week, Izzy and Murtada discuss the film of the summer. No, it’s not Superman, and it’s definitely not Eddington. It’s Taxi zum Klo—Frank Ripploh’s 1980 film about a gay public school teacher in Berlin who is forced to reassess his preference for casual sex when he enters into a relationship with a cinema worker named Bernd. The restoration of this extremely modern, incisive film premieres at Metrograph in New York City on August 1. Izzy and Murtada also discuss the aforementioned Superman and Eddington—why Superman’s politics are surprisingly bold and Eddington’s are annoyingly toothless, what James Gunn offers the DC Universe, and where Ari Aster can go from here.
