Pitchin’ Movies With The Sound Off
This week on Pitchin Movies with the Sound Off, we pitch The Death of Lady — a darkly funny, surprisingly emotional movie about Sandra Pond, an anonymous author known as Lady, who travels to a remote Irish town after a devastating tragedy and walks into a pub for one last drink. Unfortunately for her plan, the pub is full of people. There’s Chanticleer, a bartender played by Christopher Eccleston. Rhonda Ace, a darts-destroying Jennifer Connelly menace. An old man. An asshole. A happy couple. A locals-only darts night. A first-edition book. A bathroom breakdown. And maybe the exact kind of strange human connection that keeps someone alive. This episode somehow includes: • Amy Poehler as a dramatic lead • Jennifer Connelly playing darts like a weapon • Christopher Eccleston bartender energy • Rock-a-Doodle • Doctor Who • Highlander vs. Braveheart confusion • pretending to be Canadian • a spontaneous call-in segment • darts league politics • grief, jokes, and emotional whiplash • and the birth of a movie that might actually be beautiful Proudly sponsored by Totally Real Bands.
