Every month we pick an actor, then we pick two movies that star that actor. We talk about both films ad nauseum, then finally, we attempt to fuse them together and create a coherent script. Does it always work? No. But if anyone can do it, it's married couple Julian and Diana Gaytan and their esteemed producer Brandon Milligan.
In amidst the fusions, which are usually our longest episodes, we also have 2 other shows sprinkled into the mix. FAF Singles, a single discussion about (normally) one film, and FAF Mortem, a single discussion on (normally) one film that has gore and violence.
Returning director, Henry Selick (Monkeybone, Nightmare Before Christmas) hits us this week with the spooky stop-motion, modern classic, Coraline. Adapted from the Neil Gaiman book of the same name, we follow a girl of the same name into the perfect reality she'd always dreamed of. But with all perfection, usually comes a heavy price. In Coraline's case, perfection might just cost her her soul. Ooooohhhhh *waggles fingers all spookily*

11: Sandra Bullock: While You Were Premotitioning
This month we finally talk about America's Sweetheart, Sandra Bullock. Not to be confused with America's Other Sweetheart, Brendan Fraser. You can tell them apart by seeing that they are two entirely different people. We cover 1995's wholesome, holiday comedy, While You Were Sleeping and 2007's sad trainwreck, Premonition. It's dumb, but luckily, it's also needlessly confusing! Listen as we put the puzzle pieces together to fabricate a script worthy of Sandy, and While You Were Sleeping's breakout star, Joe Jr.

FAF Singles: Dredd
This time around, we discuss the 2012 action cult hit, Dredd. It's the directorial debut for now notable director, Alex Garland (Ex Machina, Annihilation, Devs), and what a debut it is. It's corny, it's violent, it's style is unapologetic and confident, and above all else, it's use of slow-mo might be the most appropriate implementation in any movie ever. It's one of Brandon's favorite action movies, so he couldn't help but prattle on about it for a while.
