Grierson & Leitch

Leitch is solo this week! (That's why the episode is so short.) Grierson is in Cannes still, so Leitch talks about Alex Garland's "Men" and the Stephen King remake "Firestarter." He also talks about the Jurassic Park movies for a while and mostly just reminds you why he needs Grierson on this show. Grierson will be back next week, promise. Thanks to Dylan Mayer and My Friend Mary, both of which are wonderful, for the music. We hope you enjoy. Let us know what you think @griersonleitch on Twitter, or [email protected].

Hey, look, it's another Marvel movie! This one's directed by Sam Raimi, and it, surprisingly, feels like a Sam Raimi movie: It's "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness." Then, in a remarkable (and very depressing) bit of timing, French abortion movie "Happening" hits screens. We also preview the 2022 Cannes Film Festival, which Grierson is leaving for next week. That's why we won't have a show next week. He'll be in France. Eating crepes, probably.

We've got three foreign language movies for you, but stick with us, don't leave! They're all fascinating. The first is Gaspar Noe's "Vortex," which we're both really, really into, and then there's Finnish "elevated horror" film "Hatching." Then we have a Reboot, the Olivier Assayas 1996 film "Irma Vep." Good stuff! Timestamps: 11:13 "Vortex" 37:24 "Hatching" 59:34 "Irma Vep" Thanks to Dylan Mayer and My Friend Mary, both of which are wonderful, for the music. We hope you enjoy.

We don't want to spoil anything, but: We've got some good movies to talk about this week! First, it's Robert Eggers' "The Northman," which is about, and maybe for, Vikings.

Holy shit. Holy shit! The craziest Oscars ever--the craziest Oscars imaginable--just ended, and boy are we glad we stayed up to talk about them. What can you even say? Will Smith slapped Chris Rock! In the face! On the night he won Best Actor? Listen to our brains fry, in real time. Fortunately, we taped our reviews of the Sandra Bullock-Channing Tatum comedy "The Lost City" and the Daniels' wild indie "Everything Everywhere All at Once" BEFORE the Oscars. Because we wouldn't have been able to put together coherent thoughts otherwise. If you haven't processed what happened yet, try to process it with us. Holy shit! 10:11 The Slap Heard Around the World 51:22 "The Lost City" 1:11:15 "Everything Everywhere All at Once" Seriously, holy shit.
