We are three film lovers with diverse tastes. Every week we watch a film one of us considers to be "essential viewing" and then do a deep dive into the themes, craft, and quality of the movie. Occasionally, we also discuss the newest high profile cinema releases in our "live" episodes.
We're Back! No, I'm not referring to the classic 1993 animated dinosaur film starring John Goodman. I'm talking about the Essential Viewing podcast! We're finally back after a month long hiatus and have a packed episode for you with all the banter and film discussion you could want. In this special episode we hold an extended roundtable and discuss Jordan Peele's newest out-of-this-world film Nope.

Get ready to hit the mean streets of New York yet again because this week, Christian had us watch 25th Hour, the 2002 Spike Lee Joint starring Edward Norton, Rosario Dawson, Phillip Seymour-Hoffman, Barry Pepper, and Tony Siragusa. Did this film leave us feeling like we just had a great night at the club, or were we ready to not see each other for 7 years after watching it? Tune in to find out!
