Runtime 67 minutes Show Contents: 0:00 Intro 3:03 #RyanIsWrong with guest Bob Turnbull, from The Eternal Sunshine of The Logical Mind 12:50 The New Slang: TONI ERDMANN 44:11 SPOILER DISCUSSION about “That Scene” in TONI ERDMANN 51:58 The Other Side: Selections for further reading in honour of our feature film Thoughts from your host… It’s been a while since I’ve come up with a new segment on this show, but once every fifty episode or so, something hits me. So in lieu of getting to know a little bit more about a frequent guest, I thought I’d give him a chance to rake me over the coals and take me to task on ways we disagree. Meanwhile, I sit here and sincerely wonder what film we will talk about next, since the studios more or less abandoned February altogether. Basically, if you have any suggestions for the next episode, I’m all ears. In the meantime, allow us to clock in a brief episode about one of the very best films of 2016.   Thanks for tuning into episode one-hundred-seventy-one.
