This week Mario and Tom briefly revisit their animated shorts episode to talk about “Animal Behaviour,” the Academy short-listed film they didn’t get to talk about last week (8:00) Then, they talk about why Yorgos Lanthimos’s “The Favourite,” starring Olivia Coleman, Emma Stone, and Rachel Weisz, is good, but not their favorite (12:23), before launching into a true disagreement about Barry Jenkin’s new film “If Beale Street Could Talk” (27:04) Finally, they find a few minutes to dig into their number 77’s (Mario 1:01:54, Tom 1:25:41).
