Hope you like needles, because this week we go “deeper and deeper” and take a poke at the modern classic, Audition. A revisit for Ryan, and Tim’s first time, it did not disappoint in either case, earning a double “rent.” The guys explore the film’s dual misogynistic and feminist readings, as well as the complete mind bender of a final act that set the stage for a decade’s worth of influence.
