Episode 101: Richard Jewell - Dark Waters

Josh is joined by recurring guest Josh Brown for a double feature on Richard Jewell and Dark Waters. First (Beginning-31:14), they discuss Richard Jewell and whether Clint Eastwood’s politics had too much of an influence on the re-telling of the story of the aftermath of the 1996 Olympics bombing, its problematic depiction of Atlanta Journal Constitution writer Kathy Scruggs, Paul Walter Hauser’s performance as the title character and more. Then, they talk about Todd Haynes’ "Dark Waters" (31:15-End) and how it was effective in turning mundane legal work into a compelling story, Mark Ruffalo’s depiction of a corporate lawyer going up against Dupont and much more!
