Adobe Express, the quick and easy create anything app.

It's very difficult to keep the line between the past and the present.

You believe that someone out of the past can enter and take possession of a living being?

We may be through with the past, but the past is not through with us.

Welcome to The Next Picture Show, a movie of the week podcast devoted to a classic film

and how it's shaped our thoughts on a recent release. I'm Tasha Robinson here with Scott Tobias, Keith Phipps, and stepping out from behind

the production board while Rachel Handler's out of town. Genevieve Koski. We all firmly believe that no

film exists in a vacuum and that all culture is more interesting in context. So every other week,

we get together to talk over a classic film and consider how it relates to a current release.

This week, we have a capital pictures double feature as we look at two Cohen Brothers movies made 25 years apart, both about aspects of filmmaking at the same fictional studio.

Genevieve, you want to lay out the roadmap for the life of the mind? That's a trick question. There is no roadmap for the life of the mind, and exploring it can be painful. But we're going to try. Back in 1991, filmmakers Joel and Ethan Cohen had a reputation as dilettance who tried out a series of genres, but hadn't developed a distinct identity yet. Their fourth film, Barton Fink, feels like an answer to the questions critics were asking at the time. It certainly has a strong identity, and it defines who the Coens have always been. It's the story of a screenwriter with writer's

block, fighting at words onto paper in a hotel that's disintegrating as fast as his sanity.

He's working for a studio called Capitol, the same studio at the center of the Cohen's latest film,

Hail Caesar. Both movies are about life in the industry and the difficulties of making art.

But Barton Fink is a bleak, dark comedy about a single man who's losing his mind. And Hale

Caesar is a brisk, light ensemble comedy about an industry where everyone seems like they're on the brink.

Come on, Tasha, two movies about making movies. What do you need? A roadmap?
