86. The Childhood Of A Leader, Popstar & Brotherhood

This week, a triple whammy of reviews! Childhood of a Leader, which lusty teens and Danny flocked to at the promise of some brooding, dreamy R-Patz action, only to discover to their dismay it's a historical psychodrama about a mop-haired fascist boy; Brotherhood, the final part of Noel Clarke’s Hood trilogy in which poor Noel gets pulled back in just when he thought he was out; and Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, The Lonely Island’s parody of megastardom featuring more man-baby silliness and celebrity cameos than you can shake a booty at.We are delighted to be joined this week by special guest Dougal Macqueen, who wows us with his knowledge of Catherine Breillat’s oeuvre and the xXx franchise. He also helps us discuss Paolo Sorrentino love of making films about rich old men and James Franco’s efforts to make a yucky movie about everyone’s favourite predatory subculture, pickup artists. Plus, Sam attempts to write a Lonely Island song in 10 minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
