Movie Memory Machine
A podcast dedicated to films that are forgotten but not gone. Each week the Machine sends us backward and forward through time and forces us to watch a wide release film that history has forgotten, then decide if we should send it back to modern memory or leave it drifting in the ether of space.

Life or Something Like It (2002)
Friday May 10, 2024
Friday May 10, 2024
The Machine sends us to April 26, 2002 to cover the Angelina Jolie film Life or Something Like It.
Seattle news reporter Lanie Karrigan (Angelina Jolie) has carefully curated her dream life: Marilyn Monroe looks, a star baseball player fiancé (Christian Kane), and a rising career. When the opportunity to go national comes up, her station manager pairs her with Pete, a seasoned producer (Edward Burns,) to strengthen her profile. However, when Pete sets up an in-the-field interview with Prophet Jack (Tony Shaloub), a homeless soothsayer, he informs Lanie that she will not only not get the new job, but that she will die in seven days.
Directed by Stephen Herek
Written by Dana Stevens and John Scott Shepherd

In this Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre mini-transmission, we discuss what the actual “ruse” is, a costuming faux pas (more French idioms!), and play the Trailer Game—the game that is sweeping the nation where we try to guess which moments will appear in the trailer for the film. Also, the Machine gives us some clues for which movie it’s sending us next!

When a top secret technological weapon is stolen by a billionaire arms dealer, a team of super spies must find a way to retrieve it.
