Episode 288: 'EO' with Ashley Ray

Jerzy Skolimowski’s EO is probably not the first film to premiere at Cannes, land on a ton of annual Top Ten lists, and then get nominated for Best International Feature at the Academy Awards. But it’s the first movie to do all that AND be about – and starring – a donkey. Comedian Ashley Ray joins us to talk about our silent protagonist’s adventure across Europe. Then, a certain bear joins the Hall of Excellence and we pick some other non-human POVs that would make good cinema.What’s Good:Drea - Hearing the Spirit Awards were accessibleAshley - Extreme SistersAlonso - Kristen Lopez, But Have You Read the Book?ITIDICNew Ninja Turtles MovieLenny Kravitz to Sing Oscars “In Memoriam” SegmentEEAAOO Wins a LOT of Spirit Awards (watch The Daniels’ speech)Staff PicksDrea - BruiserAshley - Three WaysAlonso- Framing AgnesCheck out TV, I Say with Ashley RayWith:Drea ClarkAlonso DuraldeAshley RayProduced by Marissa FlaxbartSr. Producer Laura Swisher Help support this show and unlock bonus content!
