0:00.0	This is an important public service announcement.
0:02.8	Me and Will are all fired up after talking about this for 20 minutes.
0:06.2	So we want to just get it right here, right now, into your ears.
0:10.6	On this podcast over the last 10 years, there have been two filmmakers who we have consistently
0:14.6	advocated for, Matt Farley and Charlie Roxburgh.
0:17.4	We have often said, like, if you watch only one movie on our recommendation, like, for the rest of your life, make it local legends. Mm-hmm. Yes. And then if you watch two, make it Magic Spot. And we just want to say, you are not a member of the important cinema club if you haven't watched these two movies. Yeah. Even one. I want to be clear, you don't need to like it. Yeah. Like, if you don't like it, that's fine. You don't need to watch anymore. But this is actually mandatory from this point forward, okay? Because Justin and I were just talking, we were getting fired up about how like, film festivals won't play these movies. Yeah, yeah. That a movie will, orion will not host them on their streaming service.
0:54.8	And, hey, who knows?
0:56.0	I'm sure they will at some point.
0:57.2	But we're just saying one of the most gratifying things about this show is that many people over the years have watched movies on our recommendation.

1:06.3	And many people have watched these two movies in particular on our recommendation.

1:23.6	Local Legends and Magic Spot.
1:25.6	Is Local Legends still online for free? I don't think it's for free, but here's the thing. It will cost you, what, $4 on Vimeo? $5 on Vimeo. They're available online to watch. Yeah, look up Local Legends, pay whatever you have to watch it. It's 75 minutes long. At minimum, you will enjoy it. At maximum, it may change your life.
1:45.1	So please watch Local Legends. Thank you very much for listening to the important cinema
