Fancy Movie Time #9: The 400 Blows (feat. Josh Boerman)
Added 2023-08-19 14:00:04 +0000 UTCOn this episode of Fancy Movie Time with Brian and A.J., the fancy lads recruit their first ever Fancy Guest, one Josh Boerman from The Worst of All Possible Worlds, to cover François Truffaut's semi-autobiographical, coming-of-age drama The 400 Blows. Does Truffaut's unblinking look into the terrors of childhood make this a Fancy Feast? Or does the unrelenting bleak tone make this a Failure to Fancy? Perhaps most importantly, who is Johnson Laserdick and why is he SO. COOL?!

I hope for Christmas this year you guys cover All That Heaven Allows. It is suburban melodrama and I love it

This is why I'm going to be getting the complete collection of the 2003 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon while it's available. Just doing my part for preservation, You're Welcome Cinema!
