The best time of year is quickly approaching and you know what Sophia and Nick are counting down to… Fall festival slates have been (mostly) revealed and with trailers and release dates also being shared, it’s time to figure out which films will become each studio’s big players. Listen as they list a number of films premiering or being shown at Venice, Telluride, Toronto, and New York and debating which may rise to the top before the next Academy Awards. Will Timothee reign “supreme” this time around? It’s surely no “accident” that Neon and Mubi each collected a stacked roster out of the Cannes Film Festival. Which films are you most excited to see this fall?
