This week’s selected media, February 15, 2026: Cinefiles
This week I finished:

Many Cine-Files podcast episodes, hosted by Steve Morris and John Rocha: I’ve been appreciating movies more lately. After each movie I like, I follow up with reviews. Following up Remains of the Day, I found this podcast of two guys in the movie industry talking about it with more depth and thoughtfulness than most reviews.
It turns out they did a four-part survey of Scarface too, for about 7 or 8 hours. Normally I don’t report on podcast episodes here, but I listened to so much and anticipate listening to more. They’ve been reviewing movies on this podcast about ten years and I found many I liked.
Episodes I listened to or downloaded:
- Remains of the Day
- Scarface
- Spirited Away
- Chasing Amy
- Pumping Iron
- The Great Escape
- Stand and Deliver
- There Will Be Blood
- The Wizard of Oz
Come to think of it, I should post the podcasts I follow and listen to. I’ll have to make a regular post about it soon.
