In Bruges

This week, the great Maya Dawit joins us for a freewheeling discussion of the defining film of Colin Farrell's career, In Bruges! A small, talky crime comedy from a first time director, the film would come out of nowhere and deliver Colin the best reviews of his career and major awards buzz, including a Golden Globe. We have a lot of praise to heap on his revelatory performance and why we think this is the one that made all the difference, and we have a lot of... mixed feelings about the movie at large and its blend of postmodern farce, existential dread, and very of the moment anti-PC shock humor. Along the way, we're gonna get into nepo babies, industry plants, Netflix originals, the Premiere League, and why 2008 is the year that broke Hollywood. Cole remembers when he went to Bruges. Connor hates all actresses under thirty. Maya has unsolicited career advice for Colin. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
