Film Inquiry presents Blindspots with Jake and Kristy. In this new podcast series, Film Inquiry staff members and fast friends Jake Tropila and Kristy Strouse will each recommend a film they like that the other person has not seen. They will then watch the other person’s selection and come together to discuss their thoughts and reactions to both films. For those who seek hidden gems and new findings in the world of cinema, this is the podcast for you.
Like those Amblin dinosaurs once said: We’re back! Blindspots returns from a several-month-long hiatus, and our hosts are bringing the laughs in the form of a largely defunct genre: the classic American studio comedy. Up first, Jake recommends Peter Bogdanovich’s 1972 romantic screwball masterpiece, What’s Up Doc? Then, Kristy brings Jonathan Lynn’s excellent 1993 courtroom comedy, My Cousin Vinny, to the table. It’s an episode filled with Barbara Streisand, Joe Pesci, car chases, grits, and more!
