Show Notes

Border (Swedish: Gräns) is a 2018 Swedish fantasy film directed by Ali Abbasi with a screenplay by Abbasi, Isabella Eklöf and John Ajvide Lindqvist based on the short story of the same name by Ajvide Lindqvist from his anthology Let the Old Dreams Die. It won the Un Certain Regard award at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival, and was selected as the Swedish entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 91st Academy Awards but was not nominated. However, it was nominated for Best Makeup and Hairstyling. You know what we love about "Roger Ebert", "Chris Stuckmann", "Jeremy Jahns", "Gene Siskel" and others like "New Rockstars" and "Screen Crush"? They love movies, everything about movies. Creating videos and "podcasts" to tell us what we should be seeing, what we should be looking for, and combing through "TV and Film" for all the "Easter Eggs" that they can find. Films and tv shows like "Star Wars", both the "Original Star Wars Trilogy" and the "Prequel Trilogy", "Star Trek TOS", "Star Trek TNG", "The Terminator", "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and all the other "Indiana Jones" movies, the "Marvel Cinematic Universe" like "Iron Man", "The Hulk", "The Avengers", bringing "Spiderman" back to the fold and introducing us to the "WandaVision" mini-series. The "DC Universe", including all the "Batman" movies, "Batman The Animated Series", "Superman The Animated Series", "Justice League", as well as the newer movies like "Batman V Superman", even though it wasn't great. They also love the animated movies that have become super popular since "Toy Story" debuted. Each one bigger than the last one, like "Cars", "The Incredibles", "Coco", "Finding Nemo", "Monsters, Inc", and "Soul". But, that's not all, they introduce us to movies made by popular directors that we may not even know exist. Directors like "James Cameron", "George Lucas", "Steven Spielberg", "Martin Scorcese", "Walter Hill", "George Miller", "Robert Altman", "George A Romero", "Francis Ford Coppola", "Tobe Hooper", "Ryan Coogler", "Tim Miller", "Colin Trevorrow", "JJ Abrams" and others. Their vast knowledge of films, techniques, special effects, animation and script writing helps to round out their "movie reviews" and entertain millions of people each month.
