Episode 31: Green Book-The Front Runner

Josh is joined by recurring guests Daniel Lima and Josh Brown to discuss two movies, Peter Farrelly's "Green Book" and Jason Reitman's "The Front Runner." First, they discuss "Green Book" and how it is limited by being a movie about race relations told solely by white people, how it does at depicting racism in the early 60s in spite of that and whether its performances from Viggo Mortenson and Mahershala Ali are enough to salvage the movie despite its other shortcomings. Then (at 42:00), they get into how "The Frontrunner" tells the story about the downfall of 1988 Democratic presidential hopeful Gary Hart while grappling with issues of media access, privacy, our relationship with our politicians, its litany of supporting performances from TV actors, and much more!
