In this episode, Sarah and MJ talk about a film that is neither on Scorsese's list of companion films, nor is it a film he directed. However, The Color of Money is a sequel to The Hustler, and your illustrious co-hosts love to yap. So, they decided to do an episode dedicated to the first film in the Fast Eddie Felson saga, The Hustler. They talk about 1 vs. 1 competitions, the ambitious nature of the film, and the hottest person to ever walk the Earth, Paul Newman.

Episode 32: Il Sorpasso
This week we're discussing the companion movie for Martin Scorsese's The Color of Money, the Italian comedy Il Sorpasso from 1962. We discuss whether it is really a comedy, how it balances conflicting tones, and whether any art is really new at all.

Episode 31: After Hours
There's no rules for this podcast, it's After Hours babyyyyyyyy! Joining Sarah & MJ to talk about this Scorsese movie is friend of the show and co-host of "The Bond We Share" podcast, Adam Moffett. We get into our own real-life near-After Hours experiences, discuss the brilliant sight gags in this movie, and talk about why it is one of Scorsese's most underrated - yet easy to rewatch - movies.

Episode 30: Up in Mabel's Room
It's our final stop before After Hours with another Allan Dwan farce, Up in Mabel's Room. While you'd be forgiven for thinking we're watching the same film as the last episode, this does fix some of the problems we had with Getting Gertie's Garter. We talk about the side characters that can steal the show in a farcical comedy, the fine line between horror and comedy, and discuss Martin Scorsese's quite frankly insane slate of possible upcoming movies.

Episode 29: Getting Gertie's Garter
We're still on the road to After Hours and talking about another Allan Dwan farcical comedy, 1945's Getting Gertie's Garter. Sarah and MJ chat about why we're bad at using Letterboxd (ironic considering this podcast started from a Letterboxd list!), where this film unfortunately falls apart, and the perils of trying to turn a silent movie into a talkie.
