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 true with the past, but the past is not through with us.

Welcome to the next picture show, a movie that we podcast devoted to a classic film and how it shaped our thoughts on our recent release.

I'm Keith Phipps here with Scott Tobias and Tasha Robinson.

Genevieve Kosky is currently betraying our beloved medium of film by attending the Television Critics Association Press Tour.

She will return soon, we hope.

Today we're looking at two films about the power of art,

which unites us with its beauty except for the times when it turns us into sniping,

backbiting snobs, or worse, and otherwise finds ways to destroy our lives.

Tasha, can you lay some jive on us about what we're about to talk about?

Hey, Daddy-O. For our next us about what we're about to talk about? Hey, Daddy-O.

For our next two episodes, we're going to pair.

Funny word, pair.

It works as a noun or a verb.

Add a few letters and you can impair something.

Add some different letters and you can repair that same thing.

Change a few letters and you can eat it.

So this week's pair, guys, I can't do this.

I know it's like thematically appropriate to the episodes,

but I can just feel listeners tuning out because it's so annoying.

But Tasha, art isn't like a popularity contest, man.
