On this episode of Remainders we watch the 2000 film The Beach. Leo’s first major role to come after the star making success of Titanic, time has been kind to this movie about disaffection and discovery in a pre-9/11 world with emerging technology. Directed by Danny Boyle and written by Alex Garland, the film’s roster has also led to a decades later reappraisal. If anything, The Beach is an incredible time capsule of late 90s/early 2000s culture and zeitgeist.Other topics include Danny Boyle’s filmography, movie soundtracks and discovering new music in the 90s, 2000s music, new VHS in the collection, screenings in the cemetery, the Phoenician Scheme and Wes Anderson’s style and legacy, Darren’s new painting for Punk Rock & Paintbrushes, Brian Wilson, and Batman Forever and the rumored Schumacher Cut.Songs of the WeekDon’t Talk (Put Your Head On My Shoulder) by The Beach BoysDarlin’ by The Beach BoysA Three-Legged Workhorse by This Will Destroy YouRemainders Podcast Jukebox PlaylistWebsiteFacebookInstagramYouTubeTwitter
