90. De Palma & Swiss Army Man

from Film Chat

This week, we review a film in which Daniel Radcliffe plays a magical corpse that farts and gets boners — no, not “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2” but the whimsical philosophical comedy Swiss Army Man. Danny also tells us many fun Brian De Palma facts he learned watching the eponymous documentary directed by Noah Baumbach and Jake Paltrow. Did you know Brian loves the smell of acorns? Interesting.Plus, we reaffirm our performative wokeness with a discussion about Tim Burton, Star Wars, and diversity; Danny goes on and on about all the brilliant films he is seeing at the London Film Festival that Sam isn't; and we follow in Swiss Army Man’s footsteps by finding poetry in flatulence. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
