Listen Later

Hello friends! We're starting a new marathon that we're going to be calling Meta May! You can find out why in this week's episode! And to kick start this podcast series about movies about movies, we're looking back at Robert Altman's 1992 satirical look at Hollywoodland, The Player. It's a little bit of a thriller. But, it's also a comedy. And, oh yeah, it has some satire. And sure, it's got some big names attached. But, is it worth analyzing? We talk about style, Hollywood, meta movies, and much, much more as we kick start our Meta May marathon. Join us now!
