We are jumping into a cult classic movie that wasn't polarizing enough to warrant a remake.

Polarizing Movies 100 is in session and today's lesson comes from Mona Lisa Smile, where Julia Roberts teaches us to consider a polarizing movie from 2003 featuring a host of up and coming actors and actresses. We revel in the cast and ache for better direction as we hash out discourse from audiences and critics.

It's a silly movie and this is a silly episode. Our special guest tells a tragic story of popcorn loss while at a screening of Keanu, we play the Brandini drinking game, and finish off with a few rounds of Magnetized: Keanu Reeves Edition.

Happy 100th episode!
