0:00.0 | The year is 1993 and Jamaica's got a Bob-Sled team, which means we have a podcast about it. |
0:07.0 | The movie Cool Runics. |
0:09.0 | Hello everybody and welcome to Unspooled. I'm Amy Nicholson. And I'm Paul Sheer and this is the show where we are trying to find the hundred best films of all time. |
0:38.0 | It doesn't matter who made them when they came out. We are going to find them and we're going to put them up for judgment here. |
0:45.0 | So far Amy and I have gone through the A.F.I. list. We have found forty that we believe are worthy enough to be shot into space to represent all of film. |
0:55.0 | But right now we are on a quest to find the other sixty. We're in this specific genre that I'm kind of loving Amy, which is true sports films. |
1:05.0 | This is not just sports films. It's ones that are based in a real life scenario. |

1:56.0 | And so I was thinking about it almost in Goldilocks terms. We're in our third movie of this. And so far we've had one film where the underdog team wins. |
2:03.0 | One film where the underdog team dies. And now we're having one team where the underdog film loses. |
2:09.0 | And so at least it's a little bit different than like these all have to end in the same way. |
2:14.0 | How can we be inspired by stuff that takes such drastically different terms. |
2:18.0 | And so the effect that these films have on audiences and how they get there I think is really interesting. |
2:22.0 | No, absolutely. And I can't, you know, I can't say enough how much I've really been appreciating a good cry. |
