This week on S&A Lindsay is joined by Preston Mitchell as accident grab quiche when they wanted pie. cause it's a Double of  Denis Villeneuve's Prisoners (2013) & J Lee Thompson's From 10 to Midnight (2013) 
This is a Artisan and Carpenter Double.  Even though both movies are looking into the depths of human depravity.  Villeneuve's work is almost an art class - helped by Wizard Roger Deakins.  While Journeyman veteran Thompson is pure lunacy and sleaze at times, but just so well made.  It's Cannon and it is why we love it.

This week on S&A, Lindsay is joined by Ken Walker Texas Ranger, as they sneak in back stage and get their own VHS Behind the Music Special.  It's a Double of Rob Reiner's This is Spinal Tap (1984) & Milos Foreman's Amadeus (also 1984).
Both movies both look at the myth making of musical geniuses.  The Sex, Drugs and Rock n Roll.  It goes to 11.  Don't even look at it.

This week on S&A Lindsay is joined by Film Feast and Cobwebs Favourite Preston Mitchell, as the investigate the Ménage à trois on the Stage with a Double of Ernst Lubitsch's Design for Living (1933) & Sidney Lumet's Deathtrap (1982).
This was an amazing Double Feature to dig into.  Both play adaptions, both dealing with Queer themes, and both sexy, with charismatic movie stars.  A night with Fredrick March and Christopher Reeve can only be great.
