  • Violet & Daisy
    Jun 21 2025

    This week, the great Justin Stillmaker returns to the show to discuss Violet & Daisy, the... other movie from 2011 where Saoirse Ronan plays a teen girl assassin. Co-starring Alexis Bledel, the film was the directorial debut and swan song of Academy Award-winning screenwriter of Precious Geoffrey S. Fletcher, and as we try to wrap our heads around this befuddling movie and his incredibly brief career, we also defend Spike Lee's honor, continue to litigate the long cultural tail of Quentin Tarantino, somehow keep mentioning Seijun Suzuki, and contemplate alternate casting possibilities both real (this was almost a Saoirse/Carey Mulligan vehicle!) and imagined. But we devote most of the episode towards eulogizing the legendary James Gandolfini, in one of his last performances before his untimely death.

  • The Way Back (Round 2)
    Jun 7 2025
    This week, it's a first for Above the Title - we're doubling back to a movie we've already covered. That's right, it's a return look at the first role Saoirse booked after her Oscar nomination and her one collaboration with Colin Farrell, Peter Weir's swan song The Way Back. Our original episode was one of our most contentious, and we've had two years to let our thoughts percolate on this divisive film. Kind of a postscript episode this week, but a fun one, even if we mostly talk about the Russo brothers.
