    various multi-part series involving WW2 and surrounding events. But behind
    a paywall you can get their hefty commentary on classic films while they
    watch and pause them. Both Pete and Thomas are former New Yorkers so they
    have the inside scoop on local details and every tangent is worth the time. Every minutia of this 1970s New York time capsule and Travis Bickle’s specific Vietnam Vet character making it count is pulled apart… It’s also put into the proper context of being writer Paul Schrader’s film as much as it is director Martin Scorsese’s. If you think Thomas 777 is good at discussing East Germany off the cuff, wait until you see him riffing on a classic movie like Taxi Driver. One of the movement’s great orator/ramblers truly comes alive in this format. He can’t contain his smile, something you don’t usually see when he’s discussing the Baader–Meinhof Gang. Hopefully this becomes something not behind a paywall and instead funded by
    superchats, But until then it’s worth a yearly subscription or one-off purchase of specific episodes:

    Eclectic and eccentric streamer who deep-dives into the philosophy of
    certain films or entire ouvres of certain artists. But the difference with
    this guy is he’s a Hollywood insider. Some kind of rich kid who got
    redpilled by Jay Dyer and now spends his time reading books and researching topics for his smoky broadcasts. A kind of Hollywood Babylon-style expose.

    He’s a serious cinephile who went to school and partied with various people in the Hollywood machine, so he can give us the inside view of art being produced by the beast and explore the work by iconoclasts that rebelled
    from within it. A very unique creator in this landscape. On YouTube:
