    215 - The King and I & More
    May 13 2025

    On the Season 2 finale of The Video Archives Podcast, Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary take you to see a show in The King and I. In the King and I, a widowed governess travels to Siam to tutor the wives and children of the stubborn King. She expects a challenge, but what she doesn’t expect is to fall in love. Quentin and Roger talk about the chemistry between Yul Brynner and Deborah Kerr, the colorful stagecraft of the film, and the moments they just can’t get enough of … etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

    Quentin & Roger pull two more movies off the shelves at Video Archives over on Patreon (along with our first ever video episode).

    214 - The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training & More
    Apr 29 2025

    On this episode of The Video Archives Podcast … the bases are loaded, and Quentin Tarantino & Roger Avary are hoping for a grand slam home run in The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training. In this sequel to the smash hit, The Bad News Bears are back and on their way to Houston to play an exhibition game. The only problem? They have no coach! Quentin and Roger discuss how Jackie Earle Hailey earns his spot as top billed, how the film deals with issues like a true 70’s movie, and the lessons that this film can teach you as both a child and an adult.

    Then, over on Patreon: We follow that conversation up with The Fighting Eagle, starring Rod La Rocque and produced by Cecil B. DeMille. Quentin and Roger walk us through this napoleonic wars adventure flick and highlight their favorite parts. Then Quentin and Roger take a Ride in a Pink Car — where a man thought to be dead returns home to find that everything has changed.

Who are the straw dogs? For Peckinpah perhaps it is us, the audience who are the straw dogs? 🤔

I absolutely love this podcast and the movie choices are so eclectic and unexpected. It is like a Movie School education in its own right. You learn so much about how to handle plotting, main characters, subsidiary characters, setting. Quentin Tarantino talks twenty to the dozen (of course!) but it is all such fun. Just love it.
