End Credits #377 - February 5, 2025 (A Real Pain)
from Guelph Politicast · host Adam A. Donaldson
This week on End Credits, we head east, young man. As we continue our cinematic trip through this year's Oscar nominees, we stop in Poland for A Real Pain, which is now easy to stream on Disney+. Before that though, we will stop and consider the calendar. What month is this? Why it's Black History Month, and we will look at some examples of great Black film talent! This Wednesday, February 5, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Tim Phillips will discuss: Black History Month Movies. This is our first show for February, so it seems right to spend a portion of it doing the obvious thing and that's pay tribute to Black History Month. So to begin this episode, we're going to choose two films made by two great Black filmmakers and talk about what makes them great and why you should seek them out on streaming. (Both are kind of romantic tales too for there's your Valentine's synergy too!) REVIEW: A Real Pain (2024). Cousins David and Benji go to Poland to see the country their now-dead grandmother was born, which is the simple plot description of the new film from Jesse Eisenberg. Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin play the cousins, and now they're both nominated for Oscars for their work in this movie.- writing and acting respectively - but what about this movie they're being applauded for? This week, we will travel through Poland with the Pain boys as they get to know their grandma, and each other. End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.
