Film Inquiry presents Blindspots with Jake Tropila and Kristy Strouse. On this new podcast series, Film Inquiry staff members and fast friends Jake and Kristy will each recommend a film they like that the other person has not seen. They will then watch the other person’s selection and come together to discuss their thoughts and reactions to both films. For those who seek hidden gems and new findings in the world of cinema, this is the podcast for you.
Blindspots is back! Our hosts hit the road to check out two films concerning the deranged lives of vicious killers. Up first, Jake introduces Kristy to David Lynch’s Palme d’Or-winning riff on The Wizard of Oz, Wild at Heart, starring Nicolas Cage and Laura Dern as two lovers on the run. Then, Kristy shows Jake the directorial debut of Dominic Sena, Kalifornia, wherein David Duchovny and Michelle Forbes accompany the deadly pairing of Brad Pitt and Juliette Lewis on a car trip. Who will make it out alive? All this and more on an all-new Blindspots! NOTE: This podcast is a symbol of our individuality and our belief in personal freedom.
Music featured in the episode includes California by Phantom Planet, and Somewhere Over the Rainbow by Judy Garland.

Episode 21: King of New York & A Perfect World
What’s in the cup? Why, it’s a new episode of Blindspots, of course! Jake and Kristy return with a pair of riveting 90s crime films from two American auteurs. Up first, Jake introduces Kristy to the seedy underbelly of the 1990s New York crime scene, headed up by Christopher Walken and a murderer’s row of character actors in Abel Ferrara’s King of New York. Then, Kristy takes Jake to 1993 to check out Clint Eastwood’s Kevin Costner-starring hostage road movie, A Perfect World. All this and more on an all-new episode of Blindspots. And that’s a fact.
Music in the episode featured in King of New York & A Perfect World.

Episode 20: Home For the Holidays & ThanksKilling
We here at the Blindspots podcast would like to express that not every film we cover is a certified classic, nor does each film selected for discussion necessarily have to be one that either host holds any real fondness for. With that being said, for this month of November, we’re bringing another special themed month in the form of Thanksgiving movies! Up first, Kristy introduces Jake to Jodie Foster’s 1995 comfort food film about visiting your relatives at Home for the Holidays. Then, Jake takes Kristy to 2007 where ThanksKilling, a film about a wise-cracking, homicidal turkey, was cooked up into existence. It’s all holiday, all the time on this latest episode of Blindspots!
