Episode 566 – Tribeca 2025 Coverage (Part 2)

Still in NYC, still movie-hungry The Tribeca magic continues! Join Rashmi, Yazdi and Joe as they dive into a jam-packed second day of Tribeca 2025 screenings. This episode features four very different films—from outrageous satire to heartfelt tearjerkers—and includes some of the hosts’ festival favorites so far. Lemonade Blessing – A sharp, irreverent coming-of-age comedy set in a Catholic high school, following one boy’s battle with faith, hormones, and a dangerously charming classmate. From debut director Chris Merola and starring Jake Ryan in a breakout performance. The Travel Companion – A wry comedy about airline perks, co-dependency, and the growing pains of adult friendship. A great premise that stumbles a bit in execution, but still offers some clever laughs. She Dances – A tender and emotionally rich debut from actor-turned-director Rick Gomez. Featuring moving performances by Steve Zahn, Ethan Hawke, and Zahn’s real-life daughter, this is a rare film that celebrates enduring female friendship and the quiet grief of loss. Birthright – The Aussie comedy-thriller you didn’t know you needed. A jaw-droppingly pulpy and darkly hilarious battle of wills between a broke son and his wealthy parents. Think War of the Roses meets Heredity, with a killer dose of satire. This was our favorite day at the festival (so far)! Expect laughs, tears, awkward moments, and a whole lot of heart.
