Nell with Jake Noll

from Mama Needs a Movie Hosted by Mama Needs a Movie

Comedian, actor and writer Jake Noll joins to discuss the 1994 drama NELL starring Jodie Foster, Liam Neeson and Natasha Richardson. Directed by Michael Apted, NELL tells the story of a young woman raised in an isolated North Carolina mountain cabin, making her first contact with the outside world after the death of her mother. NELL was released to a mixed critical reaction, but Jodie Foster received an Oscar nomination for her unique performance communicating only through an invented language (created by Foster herself.) So listen up, chickabees, as we spee all 'bout NELL, along with some diversions into Liam Neeson's accent work, dog reactions to movies, Spanking the Monkey, bad doctors, The Room, Room, Jodie Foster's Masterclass, tays in the winn, and much, much more!
