How To Make a Killing

How To Make a Killing

Author: The MESH February 25, 2026 Duration: 51:51
The new movie HOW TO MAKE A KILLING starring Glen Powell is loosely based on the 1949 film KIND HEARTS AND CORONETS. Powell plays Becket Redfellow who was disowned at birth by his obscenely wealthy family. His mother does the best she can to raise him on her own. When she becomes terminally ill she urges Becket on her deathbed to reclaim his inheritance. We've got a review of the dark comedy plus via the Trailer Tapas segment a look at three movies arriving in cineplexes in the coming months.   Recommendation from our host in this episode- A Little Prayer   Footcandle Film Society 

There's a particular kind of conversation about movies that often gets lost between the blockbuster buzz and the pressure to keep up with every new streaming release. Footcandle Films, from The MESH, exists for that conversation. This is a monthly space dedicated to the films that demand a bit more attention-the ones playing at the independent theater, the hidden gems you might have missed, or the older titles that have faded from popular memory but still have so much to say. Each episode centers on a deep, thoughtful review of one such film, pulling apart its craft and its ideas without rush. Alongside that main discussion, the hosts weave in relevant news from the film world and, perhaps most valuably, share personal recommendations meant to rekindle your interest in forgotten favorites or introduce you to something entirely new. The pace is deliberate, the tone is conversational, and the focus is always on the unique light that smaller films can cast. If your film diet feels a little too predictable, this podcast offers a monthly reminder of the richness waiting in the margins.
