Description

Tonight the fourth in our Time Travel series serves up a classic, a would-be classic, and a should-be classic… and all three share fascinating connections! Our first pick is Chris Marker's landmark stills-in-sequence short film La Jetée, a movie so compelling that none other than Terry Gilliam remade it as our second choice: 12 Monkeys, featuring Bruce Willis, which in turn made such an impression on the young Rian Johnson, that he cast Willis in our third pick, the mind-blowing sleeper hit Looper!

Martini Giant loves movies like you love movies. Three industry professionals, Chris Nichols, Daniel Thron, and Erick Schiele gather biweekly to talk obsessively about their favorite films, share insider stories on moviemaking, and drink some mighty fine cocktails. In this podcast, there's no kind of film we don't love, and everything is on the table from Infinity War and A Star is Born to Alphaville and Eraserhead. So if you like your opinions served up as strong as your drinks, then sidle up to the bar, my friend, and enjoy the expertly mixed, lovingly crafted hot takes of Martini Giant.
