This week a pair of films with recording methods used for devious purposes.
Harry Caul is the best wiretapper on the West Coast. His skill is almost as widely known as his intense privacy, complete professional detachment, and closed off nature, born from the guilt after a previous job that resulted in the multiple murders. When Harry pulls of the impossible and captures a complete conversation in an open and crowded square, he finds his professional standard wavering as his fear of repeating the past begins to grown. Widely acknowledged as one of Francis Ford Coppola's best films and one of the best films from the 1970s, The Conversation.

Mark is a journalist who needs a break from war zones and is assigned to interview Steve and John, the Canadian makers of an internet sensation and cultural breakthrough porn site. When the original deal is upended by the subjects, they pick up Beth and her friend, and Mark suddenly finds himself on a ride along he never would have imagined. Instead of cheap adult content, he finds himself caught in a revenge plot and driven out into the woods. Will Mark make it home to see his new born child? Does Steve actually possess the golden gift of gab he has built his brand on? Just who is this Beth and what is her connection to the site? The first film from Jeffery Andersen, a rape revenge thriller in the Norther Vancouver woods, Deeper: The Retribution of Beth.
All that and Kevin attended a fancy event, Dave fears the creeping tinnitus, and Tyler faces the toughest choice of his life. Join us, won't you?
