This episode features reviews of "Ford v Ferrari" starring Matt Damon & Christian Bale, "Knives Out" from director Rian Johnson, and "A Beautiful Day In the Neighborhood" featuring Tom Hanks as Mr. Rogers. With the runtime already a bit hefty some show segments were trimmed but we kept our recommendations as our trademark show closer. Recommendations: "Diane", "Won't You Be My Neighbor?"
