Least Important Things

How can the most boring movie you've ever seen become one of the most awe-inspiring? Just 25 years and a bit of perspective. 
In this episode, host Luke Ferris reflects on revisiting Lawrence of Arabia—the one film he famously fell asleep to as a child. He discusses its lasting impact on iconic modern filmmakers and how revisiting classic cinema with fresh eyes can offer unexpected comfort and perspective on restless nights. Ultimately, it celebrates movie epics, personal growth, and the timeless conversations between old and new stories.

Plane travel is painful, but picking the right in-flight movie can turn a cramped cabin into the ultimate modern-day video store. In this essay episode, host Luke Ferris explores high-altitude cinematic comfort, the survival art of airplane movie marathons, and how a well-chosen double feature can help you endure even the most unbearable of seatmates.
