Top 10 Movies Of 2017
Our annual tradition of counting down our favorite movies of calendar years continues, with a discussion of the best in cinema from 2017. We're firmly of the opinion that ranking art -- and even giving awards for art -- is stupid, but people like lists! And what's great about shows like this is: hopefully it exposes you to stuff you've not seen, and it makes your world a little bigger and a little more empathic. We hope you enjoy!   Follow Chris: @HarrisFootball Follow Josh: @DetectiveFisch   Josh's Top 10 Films Of 2017: 10. Dunkirk 9. Brigsby Bear 8. Lady Macbeth 7. Wind River 6. Good Time 5.

TV: Damon Lindelof & Tom Perrotta talk "The Leftovers"
In just three seasons and 28 episodes, "The Leftovers" has taken a place among the great series ever created. Damon Lindelof and Tom Perrotta discuss grief and the unknown, and how they translated a fringe HBO series about what's left behind after The Rapture into a sci-fi, psychological, spy, family drama that resonates so loudly in our connection-free times.

Film: "The House On Coco Road" Director Damani Baker
Damani Baker was a little kid when his family got caught up in the U.S. invasion of Grenada. That's a crazy story: Ronald Reagan invading a tiny island nation for flimsy reasons. But that's only part of Damani's documentary, "The House On Coco Road." Damani also digs into his family's history and his mother's activism in what is legitimately one of 2017's most moving films.

Josh Larsen: Movies Are Prayers
Our buddy Josh Larsen has a new book entitled "Movies Are Prayers," and it's the jumping-off point for a fun conversation about films that give us "religious experiences." Whether that means a connected feeling to God (if that's something you believe in) or simply an understanding of the world beyond your own skin, we think you'll take away a deeper sense of how powerful cinema can be.   Notes: Check out Josh's site - larsenonfilm.com Follow Josh - @LarsenOnFilm Check out Chris's new novel - WarOnSoundbook.com Follow The Juggernaut - @JuggernautPod Find the Juggernaut on Facebook - www.facebook.com/groups/179236383431
