Sitting Around Talking Movies

Midsummer Madness! - "The Suicide Squad," "Annette," "Pig," "Pray Away," "Val" and More!


Listen Later

It's that time of summer when things are starting to look a little weird - the kids, the dog, your mother-in-law, etc. Well, movies are starting to get a little strange too. Luckily we've looked at enough stuff to help you keep your sanity as you review your entertainment choices. So we start off with "The Suicide Squad" - not to be confused with "Suicide Squad" which came out in 2019. This one was directed by James Gunn, who directed "Guardians of the Galaxy" and Bill McCuddy says that's enough to make a world of difference. Then we've got "Annette" which was a big hit at the recent Cannes Film Festival. It's got Adam Driver and Marion Cotillard but is it any good? Neil Rosen will tell you what he thinks in no uncertain terms. Then we've got "Pig" starring the always interesting Nicolas Cage. It's about a man and his truffle pig. You may not have a truffle pig (though you should) but will you still be able to relate? Bill Bregoli will tell you. We've also got documentaries including "Pray Away," about the religious movement trying to convert gay people to straight, and also "Val," which is about the 40-year career of the enigmatic and downright strange sometimes Val Kilmer. Plus the new Netflix doc series "Myth & Mogul: John DeLorean." It's a deep dive into the guy who made the stainless steel car and then got arrested. Neil has updates on "Ted Lasso" and "The White Lotus" which he's somehow still watching. And just to finish things off on a properly strange note Bill Bregoli tells us about "The Swarm" - a French horror film about grasshoppers gone wild! And as always, we're brought to you by The Accutron Show. So listen in!
