192. The Sister Brothers & Wild Rose

It's International Cowboy Boots Week, so we're reviewing two films with cowboy boots in them. The one with the most cowboy boots is Jacques Audiard's The Sisters Brothers, an off-beat, star-studded Western which features quite a few shod cowboys. The other, Wild Rose, comes up short in the cowboy boots stakes with only a single main pair and maybe some in the background later on, but it makes up for it by being a tearjerking indie drama about a young Glaswegian woman who dreams of being a country singer.On the non-cowboy-boot front, we talk about the recent Star Wars trailer, which suggests JJ Abrams is attempting a massive course correction from the previous good Star Wars film. We also discuss news of a Grease prequel, a tantalising prospect that could fill in the millions of questions about backstory we all have about Grease, and we mourn the demise of Aquaman's beard.
