  • Classic Movies Live – Season 4, Episode 25: June 2023 Recap

    After a brief hiatus, we're back with another episode of Classic Movies Live! And with the entirety of June behind them, it's time to recap some of the biggest (and dud-iest) movies of the summer!

    In this episode, Pierre and Jeff run through the movies they each saw during June, including The Flash, Asteroid City, and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. Were any of this year's most hotly-anticipated June blockbusters worth the wait? Well, the answer isn't entirely no!

    Also in this episode, Jeff references a review of Transformers: Rise of the Beasts by friend of the show and Awesome Friday co-host Simon Best, which you really should read.

    In this classic episode of Classic Movies Live!, Pierre and Jeff discuss the deeply psychological, gloriously messed-up 1999 John Malkovich vehicle of the same name. Can our hosts decipher what it must be like to be acclaimed actor John Malkovich? Tune in to find out!
