26 - Toni Erdmann (2016)


Listen Later

The boys are back this week to talk about Maren Ade's nerve shredding, demented daddy-daughter dramedy "Toni Erdmann". We get into how much of this movie is actually about work, globalization, The EU, an American Dad comparison somehow and learning self-respect via getting butt naked in front of your coworkers to celebrate birthday. Also discussed: Speed Racer, Woman of Fire, Dead Man, Mysterious Skin, Blue Valentine and a rare new music check-in. We will be back next week with Robert Iscove's frankly delightful 1999 high school Pygmalion riff "She's All That".

Thanks to Eric and Disco as always! Letterboxed: DeadFormatPod Bluesky: DeadFormatPod
