122. Michael Winterbottom

Matt and Ed finish their year-long series of artist profiles with a discussion of the work of British director Michael Winterbottom, a filmmaker who seems determined to take on every genre imaginable, and who will invent genres if he has to. In addition to discussing how fun his meta experiments can be and how dull his hardcore sex experiment was, they discuss British cinema's inferiority complex, which bands offer the modern equivalent of national service, and reminisce about awkward romantic(?) encounters. 00:00:00 - 00:02:29 - Intro00:02:30 - 00:44:56 - Discussion of the work of Michael Winterbottom00:44:57 - 00:46:43 - Outro & Deleted Scene
