2003 Bonus: MONSTER, Charlize Theron as Victim & Villain
Charlize Theron won the Best Actress Oscar for her portrayal of Aileen Wuornos in director Patty Jenkins "Monster." But maybe most interesting about the movie is how Jenkins manipulates our sympathies, constantly threading the needle between compassion and condemnation.
In this episode, Mike and Brian explore how Jenkins uses contradictions to create conflict, they talk trivia, best moments and the place of "Monster" among the best films of 2003.
