Description

To paraphrase the great 20th century philosopher Lisa Turtle,  "What is art? Are we art? Is art art? And, most importantly, is The Thomas Crown Affair art?"   Television writer/producers, and the subject of a recent Hollywood Reporter piece on their courtship, Stacy Traub (Glee, Blackish, SMILF) and Hunter Covington (It's Always Sunny, Alone Together, The Carmichael Show) join Phil and Kenny to discuss that very question.    Does "The Thomas Crown Affair" rise to the level of the pieces its protagonist steals? Does it have the delicate touch of Manet's "The Banks of the Seine at Argenteuil?" Does it's scope and emotional heft more closely resemble Edward Burkne-Jones' "The Mirror of Venus?"  Is Pierce Brosnan's mysterious nature mirrored in Magritte's "The Son of Man?" Is Rene Russo's effortless elegance akin to that of Monet's "San Giorgio Maggiore at Dusk?" Or is its simple structure and sophomoric execution more like Cassius Macellus Coolidge's "Dogs Playing Poker?"   Tune in to the podcast to find out!

In a lot of ways 1999 was the year that changed movies. From “The Matrix” and “The Blair Witch Project” to “American Beauty” and “The Sixth Sense”, the last year of the millennium was transformative for Hollywood. Through "Podcast Like It's 1999" writers Phillip Iscove (co-creator of FOX's Sleepy Hollow) and Kenny Neibart (Entourage, Hindsight) examine this apex of Cinema, before television took over, before Reality TV, before TMZ and Twitter but also after the internet, after Clinton, after OJ, after Howard Stern and Jerry Springer. This podcast will cover the over 250 exciting, funny and influential movies produced that year. Get excited to do a deep dive into all things 1999.
