Elric and Brian are Joined by Phil from the New Beverly to talk about the programming for the month of December to close out 2021!

Per New Beverly, "Our December calendar is here and it's filled with yuletide classics & festive favorites, snowy comedies & holiday romances, Santa-filled frights, Licorice Pizza & much, much more!"

For this bonus episode, Brian and Elric interview film writer and author of the new book Fun City Cinema - New York City And the Movies That Made It - Jason Bailey. Jason has done a wonderful job encapsulating and curating a bunch of great New York films whilst also intertwining them with the real life narrative of the city itself and what was going on with it at the times these movies were made. It's a delightful coffee table sized book and gets a high Pure Cinema recommend.

In this episode, Elric and Brian cross over into Just the Discs territory as they each choose five Blu-rays from five different Blu-ray Labels to highlight - very much a "5 Films Because" kind of thing and all the films are new discoveries for both of them.
