Episode 520: Who Wants To Get Glicked?

It’s the week before Thanksgiving and there are some heavy-hitters in theaters and trio of new Netflix titles for those stay-at-home viewers. Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy cover eight movies for you this week including a fascinating documentary on a woman who may have crafted the soundtrack to your life (The World According to Allee Willis) and another about a unique love affair involving music and mascots (Adrianne and the Castle). Sylvester Stallone tries to take Jason Patric’s armored car (Armor) while Thomasin McKenzie and Bill Nighy show you who the true mother and father of IVF were (Joy). Denzel Washington’s family adapts August Wilson (The Piano Lesson) and Alan Menken returns to score an all-star cast in a nifty Netflix animated film (Spellbound). Finally, it may not be Barbenheimer but Ridley Scott returns to Rome with a new vengeance (Gladiator II) and the first act of a Broadway sensation finally makes it to the big screen (Wicked: Part One). 0:00 - Intro 1:40 - The World According to Allee Willis 15:49 - Armor 23:03 - Adrianne and the Castle 32:40 - Joy 46:50 - The Piano Lesson 55:44 - Spellbound 1:03:04 - Gladiator II 1:19:04 – Wicked: Part One 1:41:31 - Outro This is a public episode.
