Time Sensitive

Big Heads Media

A film podcast exploring the best and worst under-the-radar movies released in the past 18 months. We focus on those movies that might have fallen through the cracks. Not the major blockbusters or the billion dollar grossers, but the quality cinema swimming just beneath the surface. And when we aren’t reviewing those under-the-radar movies, we find fun topics in the film industry to discuss. Whether it’s comedy specials, short films, the Oscars, trailer reactions, movie news, or just things we’re into, we do it for a laugh and to help you learn a thing or two.

Weapons
We are thrilled to kick off our eighth annual Freaky Film Festival! Throughout the month of October, Time Sensitive will be devoted to blood, guts, and the BEST classic and under-the-radar horror films. Last night at 2:17am, every child from Mrs. Gandy's class woke up, got out of bed, walked downstairs, opened the front door, walked across the front yard and into the dark… and they never came back. It’s Zach Cregger’s grotesque fairy tale Weapons. Check us out on... Twitter @TSMoviePod Facebook: Time Sensitive Instagram: @timesensitivepodcast Grab some Merch at TeePublic Big Heads Media

Power Ballad
This week, it’s time to set the record straight. In an industry propelled by Tik Tok soundbites, streams, and trends, writing a hit song isn’t easy. This one’s for the unsung heroes: the songwriters. It’s the newest movie musical from Irish filmmaker John Carney—Power Ballad. Check us out on...

Wasteman
This week, Sam and Ian return to prison, well, the prison drama. We’ve discussed prison films before with a Vault review of 1974’s The Longest Yard and its remake, but this week is a bit harder. The Shawshank Redemption, Escape from Alcatraz, Sing Sing, Chicago, and Dead Man Walking have all shaped our outsider perspective on the inside. But the harsh reality is more than Rita Hayworth posters, daring escapes, Shakespearian plays, lavish musical fantasies, and gridiron football. It’s gritty, brutal, and unrelenting. And what better way to capture that than with contraband cellphone video from the prisoners themselves? It’s Wasteman directed by Cal McMow. Check us out on...

The Plague
This week, we relive my tortuous middle school existence with a psychological thriller about bullying. ELLE magazine calls it a disturbing probe into the existential dreads of male adolescence. I call it an aquatic adaptation of Lord of the Flies. Inspired by Full Metal Jacket and The Shining, it’s The Plague, written and directed by Charlie Polinger. Check us out on...

How It Works: FILM FINANCING
This week we're pulling back the curtain on one of Hollywood's most misunderstood subjects: film financing. Where does all that money come from? Who gets paid first? Why are movie stars earning $20 million upfront while some actors work for union minimums? And why does a movie's box office total tell only a fraction of the story? Check us out on...

Splitsville
Relationships are messy, and this week, we profile a chaotic, modern farce that puts the ‘screw’ into screwball—a movie that finds absurdist comedy in the hypocrisies, jealousies, and self-deceptions of ethical non monogamy complete with plenty of hanging hog. It’s a satire of modern love with old school comedy techniques. It’s Michael Angelo Covino’s Splitsville. Check us out on...

Sam and I actually recorded this episode seventeen years ago, and we will add newly recorded segments throughout. This week is the best of all worlds: music, the internet, television, and film. It’s a mockumentary that blends This Is Spinal Tap and Back to the Future. It’s Matt Johnson’s Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie. Check us out on...

A guy who directed one of the greatest coming-of-age films ever made, one of the greatest romantic comedies ever made, one of the greatest mockumentaries ever made, one of the greatest courtroom dramas ever made, and one of the greatest psychological thrillers ever made. And he never won an Academy Award. We are talking about Rob Reiner. Check us out on...

Mickey 17
Live, die, repeat. According to Decider’s John Serba, “It’s 2054, and human cloning is a thing now. Not a legal thing, mind you, and that’s why icky politicians are doing the offshore-account thing and hauling their human-generating 3D printers into outer space to colonize other planets since—big shocker here—Earth is increasingly uninhabitable.” They say cats have nine lives, but Robert Pattinson has 18. It’s the latest wakadoo spectacle from master director Bong Joon ho. It’s Mickey 17. Check us out on...
