After finishing the Prestige in the previous episode James and Elsa picked a film from the filmography of ADR Supervisor Linda Folk and arrived at another film from 2006, The Break-Up, directed by Peyton Reed. When Brooke (Jennifer Aniston), an art dealer, and Gary (Vince Vaughn), a tour-bus driver, finally call it quits in their relationship, neither is willing to move out of their shared condo. With their friends suggesting a series of underhanded tactics that fail to get either Brooke or Gary to cave in, the only solution is to become hostile roommates.
James and Elsa discuss the genius comedic performance of John Michael Higgins, the problems with watching the film through a modern lens and the stellar camera work involved in not revealing too much of Jennifer Aniston's freshly waxed body in one very memorable scene.
Crew's Next is THE podcast about film. Every other week, join James Albarn and Elsa Grace as they review and discuss a film that they have chosen from the filmography of a crew member that worked on the previous film they discussed. They start with Christopher Nolan's Prestige but who knows where they will end up as each different crew members filmography takes them to different years, genres and, let's be honest, quality levels!
