Man Up

Your FiLM podcast hosts are not completely on board with the much dated and gender awkward title of our thirty-third episode, Man Up. However, what they do like is the charming, thoughtful, and deliberate screenplay found in between the title page and FADE OUT.   Tess Morris sought out to make a clever and enjoyable romantic comedy and we think she succeeded. And to 'one up' her Man Up movie, she cast Simon Pegg—making a sturdy gamble that a few men would likely watch along as well.
