Welcome to Open Form, a weekly film podcast hosted by award-winning writer Mychal Denzel Smith. Each week, a different author chooses a movie: a movie they love, a movie they hate, a movie they hate to love. Something nostalgic from their childhood. A brand-new obsession. Something they’ve been dying to talk about for ages and their friends are constantly annoyed by them bringing it up.

On this week's episode, Mychal talks with Adam Haslett about the 1987 film Withnail and I, directed by Bruce Robinson and starring Richard E. Grant and Paul McGann.
