This week we've lost the Muppets but are keeping the great caper as we're roped in to one last job with 2008's The Brothers Bloom, written and directed by Rian Johnson, and starring Adrien Brody, Mark Ruffalo, Rachel Weisz, Rinko Kikuchi, Robbie Coltrane, Maximilian Schell and Ricky Jay. And we're joined by Hayley's long-time friend Max Johnson (no relation) to talk a film that both Max and J Mo have owned for more than a decade without ever watching -- a lively con artist comedy with a well-earned gut punch of a finish.
In addition to the wider resumé of Rian Johnson as a director (Brick, Looper, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Knives Out, Glass Onion), this episode also features discussions on: The Bear, Heels, Justified: City Primeval, Marvel Snap, Matchstick Men, Ricky Jay and His 52 Assistants, the Ocean's trilogy, Paper Moon and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, among others.
If you'd like to watch the movie before listening to our discussion, it is readily available in Canada on a number of free streamers, including Tubi, Plex, Hoopla and the CTV app.
We'll be back next week, most likely joined by Wrestling Brain's Josh Custodio to talk Charlie Kaufman's masterpiece Synecdoche, New York.
