One F*cking Hour

Episode 165: Evan, Rémy & Marcus go one f'n hour on Sergei Parajanov's Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors (1965), the groundbreaking Ukrainian masterpiece that transformed a tragic love story into a hallucinatory fever dream of folklore, ritual, memory, and myth. We explore the film's astonishing visual style, its defiance of Soviet Socialist Realism, and why it remains one of the most singular achievements in world cinema.

Episode 1960: Evan, Rémy & Marcs break down Peeping Tom (1960), the controversial film that wrecked Michael Powell’s career before being rediscovered as a foundational proto-slasher and a deeply disturbing psychological profile of its killer. We dig into its voyeuristic horror, and critical backlash.

Episode 159: PICKPOCKET is a quietly radical masterpiece that redefined cinematic storytelling through its stripped-down performances, obsessive focus on gesture, and a hypnotic, almost spiritual portrayal of crime and isolation. In this episode of One Fucking Hour, we dive deep into Robert Bresson’s singular, meticulous style, unpacking his strange use of non-actors, fragmented editing, and psychosexual undercurrents to reveal how every frame is engineered with unnerving precision.

Episode 158: For their 1958 movie pick, Evan, Rémy & Marcus go one f’n hour on Hitchcock’s Vertigo—one of cinema’s most unsettling portraits of obsession, desire, and control. They dive into its deeply personal, psychosexual undercurrents: identity as performance, love as projection, and the disturbing dynamics at its core. It’s Hitchcock at his most honest, surreal, and revealing.

Episode 157: Our 50s series continues as Evan, Rémy & Marcus go one f'n hour on Stanley Kubrick's PATHS OF GLORY (1957), his first true masterwork — a ruthless dissection of the institutions of war and the machinery that reduces human life to expendable parts.

Episode 156: Evan, Rémy & Marcus go One F'n Hour on BIGGER THAN LIFE (1956) – the ultimate "dark side of the 1950s" movie.

Directed by Nicholas Ray and anchored by a fearless performance from James Mason, Bigger Than Life stands as one of the most audacious American films of the 1950s, transforming suburban melodrama into a feverish widescreen critique of middle-class ambition. Ray’s bold CinemaScope compositions and Mason’s operatic intensity turn domestic life into psychological spectacle, making the film a towering, ahead-of-its-time indictment of conformity and the myth of the perfect American household.

Episode 155: Evan, Rémy and Marcus go one f'n hour on Charles Laughton's THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER (1955), a nightmarish and macabre American fairy tale where Mother Goose collides with Southern Gothic horror. From Robert Mitchum’s preacher of hate to the film’s eerie storybook imagery, we break down how this singular masterpiece became one of the most haunting movies ever made.

Episode 153: Our pick for 1953 is Sam Fuller's PICKUP ON SOUTH STREET, a hard-boiled noir thriller that doubles as a sharp critique of 1950s America, examining the paranoia, moral compromise, and social damage wrought by Red Scare hysteria through the collision of petty criminals in the gritty NYC underground.

Episode 152: Our pick for the year 1952 is the underrated / under-seen noir gem SUDDEN FEAR starring Joan Crawford and Jack Palance’s one-of-a-kind skull, in which a glamorous marriage descends into a nightmarish game of suspicion, paranoia and revenge. This movie definitely should have be remade in the '90s as an erotic thriller and released on "snapper".

Episode 151: Our One F’n Year series continues with a 1951 classic, George Stevens’ A PLACE IN THE SUN starring Montgomery Clift and Elizabeth Taylor - a darkly romantic American tragedy about ambition and desire, in which a poor young man’s obsession with wealth and status drives him toward betrayal, murder, and the devastating consequences of trying to escape who he really is.
