Welcome to America's least necessary film criticism podcast. Each week, a guest will join hosts Noah Frank and Will Vitka to discuss a film that is at least 10 years old, that at least one of us hasn't seen in that period of time, and that, hopefully, at least one of us hasn't seen at all. No classics, no bombs. This is about revisiting regular movies that we think we liked when we first saw them, to see how both we and the culture around the film have changed in the intervening years. In contrast to the constant, life-or-death anxiety of the last few years, to the unyielding firehose of news, this podcast aims only to answer a single question with the lowest stakes imaginable: Do you still like this movie?

The pod wishes a Happy Rex Manning Day to everyone who celebrates as we welcome guest and rule-breaker Tony Panzera and his film, the 1995 coming-of-age comedy “Empire Records.” Liv Tyler and Renée Zellweger have turned out to be the biggest stars from this one, which also features Anthony LaPaglia and Debi Mazar, among others.
We likely set a soundtrack record in terms of volume of songs in this episode, so there’s extra attention devoted to the soundtrack. Which is probably a good thing, since the plot is...thin? That, plus some, uh, interesting directorial decisions put this one squarely in the mid-’90s.Make sure you’re following us on Twitter and Instagram @LikeThisMovie and if you have any other Delaware-based movies you’d like to remember, do so by using the hashtag #ITILTM on Twitter.
