Episode 292: I Love Lucy And Yang

Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy reviewed two of this week’s big movies during Sundance, so in case you missed them talk enthusiastically about Kogonada’s sci-fi meditation on life and connection (After Yang) or less so about Sebastian Stan as a human butcher in Fresh, you get another chance. But then they have five new films to talk about as well including two available on Netflix – an explorer survival tale (Against the Ice) and vacationing Leighton Meester trying to see if her missing girlfriend survived (The Weekend Away). Then there are three documentaries to discuss including a bizarre tale of hippie inheritance and misguided philanthropy (Dear Mr. Brody), the story of tennis player and activist Arthur Ashe (Citizen Ashe) and Amy Poehler’s film about the relationship between two of the biggest television stars ever (Lucy and Desi). 0:00 - Intro 1:09 - Fresh 8:29 – After Yang 17:25 – Citizen Ashe 24:12 – Dear Mr. Brody 32:42 – Against the Ice 45:41 - The Weekend Away 52:00 – Lucy and Desi 1:06:29 - Outro This is a public episode.
