Brewster's Millions (1985) Capitalist fantasy of lottery scale distant relative inheritance, with a catch! Could you spend 30 million in one month? Watch Richard Pryor try. Could be a Walter Hill, director, first for the pod.

Lightning Over Braddock: A Rustbowl Fantasy (Tony Buba, 1988) It’s a “documentary” chronicling the economic downturn of a Pittsburgh neighborhood, directed by a guy who was born and raised there. It’s intercut with a bunch of footage of the filmmaker and a group of oddballs who had been the subjects of his previous films, playing quasi-fictional versions of themselves. Very much about the ethics of documentary filmmaking, the struggles of American leftism, and the feeling of a being a big fish in a small, steadily declining pond. There’s a lot of good stuff about Reaganite America there to chew on and it also fits the mold of a certain strand of independent, low-budget, art house filmmaking that has been featured on the pod in the past. The best comparison I can make to another film is Guy Maddin’s My Winnipeg, or a left wing Local Legends. As a bonus, there’s a good commentary on the Kino Lorber release with the director and film critic Nick Pinkerton.
