Twenty-One: Mank, the Writer, the Holy Fool, and the Organ-Grinder’s Monkey

It's Manksgiving, y'all.

Twenty: The Firm, Hooliganism, and Masculinity Gone Awry

It’s bad for society, and y'know, it’s really bad for men.

Nineteen: The Scarlet Letter, Alcoholism, and “Being True”

The movie was hammered with bad reviews at the time. "Yeah," concedes Gary, "but there's some good work in there."

Fifteen: Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Oceans of Time, and Sexiness

That's right: Bram Stoker's Dracula directed by Francis Ford Coppola IS sexiness. Sometimes even surprisingly so, even though we are talking about the 1990's aesthetic colliding with one of the most sex-obsessed works of literature ever.

Ten: The Contender, Politics, and The Matter of Character

In a movie that fully rejects non-partisan storytelling, how should we handle the championing of one party's viewpoint and the vilification of another's?

Nine: Air Force One, The American Dream President, and Nostalgic Patriotism

The POTUS is kind of an arrogant gambler of American lives, but Gary is scary!

Eight: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, Grief, and Goodbyes

Harry opts to see his long-gone loved ones for one reason: he is preparing himself for death.

Seven: The Backwoods, Depression, and Carrying Your Own Shotgun

An eerie discrepancy begins to eek into your head. Who the heck is this whiny Paddy Considine guy? Why does HE get to carry the shotgun out of the woods? It was supposed to be me!

Tiny Gary is exhausted.

"And you, you're my favorite."

Six: Lost in Space, villainous career advice, and life lessons from Vincent Price

You know who IS trying here, though? Gary Oldman. Gary Oldman is trying.
