Episode 205: From Minari to Vista Del Mar

Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy are back with reviews of the movies you don’t need a festival to see even if that’s where many of this week’s titles originated. They talk about one of the best from last year’s Sundance (Minari) and a trio from this year’s (Judas and the Black Messiah, Land, The World To Come). A remnant of the 2019 Toronto Film Festival is a horrific take on being a true believer (Saint Maud). There is another edition to the Groundhog Day Cinematic Universe (The Map of Tiny Perfect Things) and one to the Guantanamo Bay C.U. (The Mauritanian). Erik reviews a unique sci-fi film that was scheduled to play at last year’s canceled SXSW Festival (Lapsis) as well as the self-owning documentary, There Is No “I” In Threesome while Steve reviews Steve Zahn in the family drama, Cowboys. Finally, they take a trip with Kristen Wiig, Annie Mumolo and Jamie Dornan in the wild comedy, Barb and Star Go To Vista Del Mar. 0:00 – Intro & Why We Are Not Reviewing Willy’s Wonderland 2:55 - The Map of Tiny Perfect Things 15:39 – The Mauritanian 30:02 – Saint Maud 43:32 – Minari 53:49 – Land 1:04:54 – Judas and the Black Messiah 1:16:33 – Barb and Star Go To Vista Del Mar 1:30:30– Cowboys 1:36:43 - Lapsis 1:42:51 – The World To Come 1:50:00 – There Is No “I” In Threesome This is a public episode.
