The 7 movies
Show notes
It is a busy, wild week at the movies as Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy review 11 of the best and worst of them in quite the divide in the lineup. They replay their thoughts on a recovery drama from Sundance (Union County). A kidnapped woman is told she is infected with something deadly (Hellcat). Kids took a road trip believing their band is going to open for Green Day (Nimrods) while Kristen Stewart & Alia Shawkat are in a stoner comedy (The Wrong Girls). Willem Dafoe is a Greek billionaire with family issues (The Birthday Party) plus Jeff Daniels & Jared Harris have their own issues as Reagan and Gorbachev (The Brink of War). Sunny Sandler handles the pressure of a school musical and an ill mother (Don’t Say Good Luck) while Jane Schoenbrun humorously connects sex and violence through reality and fantasy (Teenage Sex and Death At Camp Miasma). Matt Johnson directs a coming-of-age version of Anthony Bourdain (Tony) and Matthew McConaughey is a beekeeper reconnecting with his foster child in the unique new film from the director of The Vast of Night (The Rivals of Amziah King). Finally, Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor’s neighborhood is connected to prehistoric times in the Amblin-coded tribute from the director of It Follows (The End of Oak Street).
