The Movie Score episodes

  • 10: We Review Each Others Movies

    In this special episode of "The Movie Score," we do a movie swap: Maribeth reviews a movie from Ben's personal DVD collection, and Ben reviews a movie from Maribeth's. The films? "The Scorch Trials," the heart-stopping, often-terrifying second installment of the "Maze Runner" series, and "Paterson," the quiet story of an equally quiet poet. We hope you enjoy this special episode; we had a lot of fun making it, despite some hilarious technical difficulties. And as always, don't forget to submit your "Guess the Movie Line" answer to [email protected]!
