Anthony Hopkins recently won an Academy Award for his performance in "The Father". Many people were surprised the little golden statue wasn't awarded to the late Chadwick Boseman for his performance in "Ma Rainey's Black Bottom". Hosts Alan & Chris give their opinions of Hopkins' performance and the overall film as well as discuss the independent comedy "Shiva Baby". Following the reviews comes the movie news segment with discussions of the upcoming Cannes Film Festival and a discussion of two recently released movie trailers. Closing out the show each host shares a recommendation for a film you should check out. In Alan's case he shares five...but ultimately does narrow it down to one.

Recommendations from the hosts in this episode: "Martha Marcy May Marlene", "The Fisher King"

Reviews included in this episode: "The Father", "Shiva Baby"
