A Nose By Any Other Name Or Means (Episode 683)
from Movie Madness · host Erik Childress
A week before Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy take some festival trips, they have nine reviews for you over Labor Day weekend. Ten, in fact, is they catch up on one of the 193 shark movies to come out this year (The Devil’s Mouth). Then they get to this week with a music concert (Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour - Live From Paris) and another songwriter creating a new album in the face of tremendous sadness (Sara Bareilles: Good Grief). You may have that Charlie Brown reaction for a murder mystery that has clearly seen other serial killer movies but not learned much from them (The Girl in the River). There’s a story about high school journalism from one of the best documentarians working today (Teenage Wasteland). People are climbing to new heights and putting themselves in danger once again (Fall 2: Deadpoint) while Gal Gadot is forced to jog to save her kid (The Runner). Adria Arjona has to fend off super soldiers in Adam Wingard’s latest (Onslaught). Ryan Reynolds and Kenneth Branagh are unlikely Cold War allies in an action comedy from the makers of Game Night (Mayday). Finally, Mark Wahlberg beats the hell out of racism for the FBI (By Any Means). 9:56 - Review Catch Up (The Devil’s Mouth) 22:06 - Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour - Live From Paris 31:05 - The Girl in the River 37:51 - Sara Bareilles: Good Grief 45:23 - Ad Break (00:43:53.31) 47:23 - Teenage Wasteland 59:08 - Fall 2: Deadpoint 1:08:38 - The Runner 1:18:25 - Ad Break (01:14:55.17) 1:20:25 - Onslaught 1:33:35 - Mayday 1:44:27 - By Any Means CLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCAST OR BUY FROM MOVIEZYNG Be sure to check out Erik’s Weekly Box Office Column – At Rotten Tomatoes Critics’ Classics Series – At Elk Grove Cinema in Elk Grove Village, IL Chicago Screening Schedule - All the films coming to theaters and streaming Physical Media Schedule - Click & Buy upcoming titles for your library.
