Giant with Matt Kowalick

from Mama Needs a Movie · host Mama Needs a Movie

Bonafide Texan Matt Kowalick (The Birthday Boys) joins for a discussion of George Stevens' GIANT starring Elizabeth Taylor, Rock Hudson and James Dean. The 1956 epic of the Lone Star State remains unrivaled in scope and grandeur, filled to the ten-gallon brim with cattle, spurting oil rigs, barbecues, and complex racial dynamics. Mama Needs a Movie serves up an equally huge discussion, covering not only the movie, but a wide range of topics including pandemic parenthood, Daniel Day-Lewis, Burger King fingerprinting, the Mark Harris oeuvre, and what if James Dean had played the Joker. Giddy up for a discussion the size of Texas itself. Yee-haw! GIANT is available to stream on HBO Max.
