Bridgett Greenberg joins Michael and Abe as they discuss the 2004 psychological thriller The Machinist. Christian Bale’s weight loss and gain, the early 2000’s fascination with non-linear storytelling, and the value of symbology in films are just a few of the topics in this here episode!

Let’s thank Joran Welling for suggesting the movie. We are turning off the Pick the Flick tier temporarily so we can cover a few movies we want to cover, but when it turns back on, you can be like Joran by heading over to the Small Beans patreon and pledging for the Pick the Flick tier. We’ll make an announcement when we turn it back on!
