I'm joined by critic & essayist Angelica Jade Bastién to talk about Kathryn Bigelow's 1991 surfer crime thriller Point Break.

We talk about Angelica Jade's love of Keanu Reeves, his long track record of working with women directors, our feelings about Kathryn Bigelow's Detroit, Point Break and how Black Lives Matter is making us reconsider some of our favourite films.
