Spotlight (2015)

Alex and Steve once again ship on up to Boston for a look back at the most recent Best Picture winner. Joining them is longtime friend to the show and fellow podcast host, Matthew Krol of The Only Podcast About Movies! Together, they discuss whether a great and powerful narrative is the same as a great and powerful film, the quality of the acting (is it actually good acting when no one has a real character arc?) and why no one should ever mess around with Marty Baron. Just look at Trump's poll numbers to see why. Don't worry, they get on a fairly long tangent as to the real Best Picture of 2015 and man, are they full of both sound...and Fury. And, Steve gets so excited that he yells the entire time, so we apologize for the poor sound quality on his end. You can find Matt Krol and the archives of his show over at www.onlymoviepodcast.com.
