All pie is good pie on this episode of Film Feeder, as host Jack Martin is joined by fellow movie lover Mathew Buck (aka Film Brain) for a spoiler-free discussion about director Richard Linklater's excellent crowd-pleaser Hit Man, including why it's worth seeing in a cinema before its Netflix release, the undeniable charm of lead actor Glen Powell, our rather euphoric viewing experience at last year's BFI London Film Festival, and just how darn sexy it is - plus, a special section where Jack visits a special filmmaker Q&A event and gets some strong audience reactions!
