Good Will Hunting - Review 27

It’s not your fault, listeners. In this episode, we continue our March ode to Robin Williams with the movie that introduced Matt and Ben to the world, Good Will Hunting. We discuss all the behind the scenes lore that went into the now-famous duo getting this film made, how it gave both Matt and Ben Oscar’s, and gave Robin Williams his Oscar. We review all the good New England academia social commentary and how every current, confused young man NEEDS to watch this film and specifically Robin William’s speech by the pond. So bust out your Elliot Smith mixed cd and join us for Gus Van Sant’s, Good Will Hunting.

Hook - Review 26

Listener, you’ve become a pirate! We’re continuing our ode to Robin Williams with the critically disparaged but cult classic, Hook. We discuss the infamous on-set friction between Steven Spielberg and Julia Roberts, the timeless magic of that John Williams score, and how certain monologues hit very hard as adults. We talk about how Spielberg puts so much of his personal life on screen and why we think he and critics simply got it wrong with this film, especially its beloved reception among millennials. So dust off those smashing green tights, think of your happiest thought, and fly away to Neverland with us as we review Steven Spielberg’s Hook.

"Wuthering Heights" - Review 24

In this review, we are fresh out of the theater for an instant reaction where discuss our favorite moments, some of the key differences between this adaptation and Emily Bronte's classic novel, and whether Jacord Elordi is just too tall (he's not.)

And finally we discuss whether the internet is capable of being normal about Emerald Fennel movies. So tighten up those corsets and join us for our review of Wuthering Heights.
