The Kids Are All Right (Gimme Moore Part 1)

We're spending this month looking at the career of Julianne Moore, and to kick things off we're looking at her performance in Lisa Cholodenko's 2010 Best Picture nominee The Kids Are All Right! Join in as we discuss our first encounters with Moore, her lack of a conventional star persona, the film's family dynamic with a lesbian couple played by Moore and Annette Bening, and Laser's dumb friend Clay. Plus: Which parent named which kid? Does the movie know about bisexuals? Was Paul (Mark Ruffalo) flirting with Zosia Mamet? And were these the weirdest Golden Globe nominees ever?
