Back to the Frame Rate is a movie discussion podcast where filmmakers, actors, and passionate wannabes come together to celebrate the art of cinema. From beloved popcorn flicks of the '80s, '90s and today, to timeless classics and arthouse gems we cover it all. But we’re not just here to talk movies — we’re here to save them! In a world facing imminent asteroid-induced doom (think Armageddon without the happy ending), we’ve built a fallout shelter for the greatest films of all time. With only enough space for a carefully curated vault of 35mm and 70mm reels, the stakes couldn’t be higher. We comb through the likes of AFI’s 100, Sight & Sound’s Greats, and IMDB’s Top 250 to decide which films are worthy of saving — and which will be purged forever. Join hosts Nathan Suher, Sam Coale, and Briana (Bee) Butterworth as they passionately debate cinema’s survival, ensuring the future of storytelling one reel at a time. Sadly, the space is tight, just enough for us and our cherished 35mm and 70mm film reels. To friends, family, and old acquaintances left in the cinematic dust, our apologies. But fret not, for we vow to emerge when Earth is safe for repopulation. We've preserved the very soul of civilization, ensuring a future where storytelling thrives. Back to the Frame Rate, saving the world one reel at a time! Hosted by Nathan Suher, Sam Coale, and Briana (Bee) Butterworth.

The Apostle (1997) / Duv-All In #4 / aka Pray Hard with a Vengeance!
Jul 2, 20261h 27m
It's time for the grand finale of Duv-All In , our four-part celebration of the legendary Robert Duvall ! Nathan Suher, Sam Cole, and special guest Dave Merrill (filmmaker, entrepreneur, and Bluff City movie buff) dive into The Apostle (1997) , the Academy Award-nominated drama that Robert Duvall didn't just star in... he wrote it, directed it, produced it, and practically brewed the coffee on set. Is The Apostle Duvall's greatest performance? Why does this film still stand apart from almost every Hollywood movie about faith? Does its powerful story of redemption, guilt, and second chances earn a place in our Vault of Legends , or should it be left behind when the asteroid wipes out civilization? Then things take a delightfully unhinged turn... Nathan debuts Robert Duvall Sound Clip Jeopardy! , where Sam and Dave battle it out by identifying Robert Duvall movies using nothing but audio clips. Will they recognize Tender Mercies ? The Great Santini ? Network ? Or will they accidentally buzz in with Days of Thunder when the answer was Deep Impact ? (Anything is possible.) Whether you're a lifelong Robert Duvall fan, a lover of classic cinema, or just looking for your next great movie recommendation, this episode closes out our Duv-All In retrospective with thoughtful conversation, questionable trivia skills, and plenty of laughs. 01:35 Meet our guest: Dave Merrill 07:05 Nathan's movie theater mishap (Disclosure Day) 13:20 The Apostle (1997) Trailer & Plot Synopsis 54:00 Final Ratings & Vault of Legends Verdict 01:08:00 Robert Duvall Sound Clip Jeopardy!

Tender Mercies (1983) / Duv-All In #2 / Country Title or Vinyl game
Apr 20, 20261h 18mS0
<p>This week, we dive deep into the cinematic gem that is 'Tender Mercies', a film that snagged Robert Duvall an Academy Award for Best Actor back in '83. Joined by our awesome guest, actor Paul Kandarian, we showered this flick with the praise it deserves, discussing its subtle storytelling and rich character development. Duvall's portrayal of Mac Sledge is nothing short of masterful, bringing a raw, authentic energy to a character seeking redemption and a second chance. We dissected the film's themes of love, loss, and the beauty of second chances, all wrapped in a beautifully understated package that...
Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
