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?

Noah brings the resplendent, spacious, nearly-three-hour-long “Meet Joe Black,” an oddball, small ensemble fantasy romance that’s well-acted, beautifully-shot, and just a little bit...off.
If you haven’t seen the film, but want to see the car crash scene that thrust the movie back into the discourse, here’s the tweet that started that discussion. Also, be sure to read Rachel Handler’s hilarious story about how that scene came together.
The episode title, which Will references about 42 minutes in, is from a Big Thief song. You can, and should, listen to that here. We’ll be back with a new guest next week. Until then, keep the conversation going with #ITILTM and be sure to follow us on Twitter and Instagram @LikeThisMovie.
