This past weekend I had the pleasure of not only seeing a double bill of Inherent Vice and Selma, full reviews coming soon, but I also had a chance to chat about the former with a writer who I have always admired. Ryan McNeil of The Matinee invited me on his podcast, The Matineecast, to talk about the latest film from Paul Thomas Anderson. Over the course of the show, we also talk briefly about Scott Frank’s A Walk Among the Tombstones and Robert Altman’s The Long Goodbye and why they may or may not make a nice pairing with Inherent Vice.
So take a moment to give the show a listen and be sure to let Ryan know your thoughts on this particular episode.

If only I hadn’t walked out of Inherent Vice I would probably appreciate this more! 😀 still fun to listen to!
Inherent Vice is definitely a film that will not have wide appeal. Several people walked out of my screening as well. How far into the film did you make it to?
Well I’m still so very bummed over it as no one was more looking forward to this film than possibly me! As I noted in my review, how excited I was and even drove 25mi to Malibu for the screening.. But I got about 1 hr 40min in. And I just was done. I didn’t care. And about 5 people walked out before me. this will sum it up for you. http://peggyatthemovies.com/2014/12/10/review-inherent-vice-2014-warner-bros/
Looking forward to your review of SELMA, and looking forward to seeing INHERENT VICE…
I really enjoyed Selma, it has grown on me even further the more I reflect on it. Plus, it was a nice change of pace after sitting through Inherent Vice.
