Some people have a routine of eating two eggs for breakfast, reading the news and brushing their teeth before heading to work; Meryl Streep has a routine of getting Oscar nominations. She's earned her 18th with August: Osage County, and to celebrate her cultural dominance we'll speak with Karina Longworth, author of "Meryl Streep: Anatomy of an Actor" about Streep's rich career arc. Plus, Geoff will answer three of your screenwriting questions, we'll finally reveal who won the Prestige-Off and Rob Hunter will give us the movies from Sundance to keep on our radar. You should follow the show (@brokenprojector), Geoff (@drgmlatulippe) and Scott (@scottmbeggs) on Twitter for more on a daily basis. And, as always, if you like the show (or hate it with seething fervor), please help us out with a review. |

The dream is to get famous on YouTube and translate that success into a feature film career, but so far the only group to truly do that is Radio Silence. The filmmakers behind the found footage uterine horror Devil's Due made a name for themselves on the site where a bajillion hours of video is uploaded every second, and now they're staking that reputation on the big screen. We'll talk to them about that jump and what goes into making a baby. Plus, Geoff and I attempt to sell each other on two debatable ideas: the rising power of fan clubs to demand content from creators and the need for aspiring screenwriters to avoid reading scripts-in-progress. You should follow the show (@brokenprojector), Geoff (@drgmlatulippe) and Scott (@scottmbeggs) on Twitter for more on a daily basis. And, as always, if you like the show (or hate it with seething fervor), please help us out with a review.

The visuals of 12 Years a Slave are stunning, often unflinching, and this week we've invited cinematographer (and frequent Steve McQueen collaborator) Sean Bobbitt to explain how he made millions uncomfortable with his imagery. Plus, Geoff and I talk about The Wolf of Wall Street's capability to turn good people into quaalude-hungry maniacs and answer a hypothetical question about saving only one 2014 movie from destruction (by quaalude-hungry maniacs).
