Ep. 272 – Christopher & Eric’s True Crime Movie Time Presents  “I Love You Phillip Morris”

In the final installment of Mad Love Month, Hollywood gives Steven J. Russell, the man they call King Con, the big screen treatment and the results are...mixed. In the second half of this true crime pairing, Christopher and Eric compare reported facts with cinematic depictions to find out how much of this Jim Carrey vehicle I LOVE YOU PHILLIP MORRIS is fiction. And would this exploration of a devoted gay romance defined by rampant criminal activity be told in quite the same way if Hollywood were to make it today? Christopher and Eric weigh in on these and other important questions — like whether or not Ewan McGregor is really cute. (Spoiler Alert: he is.)
