The Power of the Dog (2021)

New year, new theme, same pod!  Flex on 'em! We're back with January 2022's theme of "westerns"...Jeff failed to specify, so he gets what he gets! Join us as we review the 2021 Academy Awards Best Picture front-runner The Power of the Dog (which is a western, no doubt, it's just a western about "western" things that probably shouldn't be in a western film, but this is a Jane Campion film....so....FLEX ON 'EM!) starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst, Kodie Smit-McPhee, and Jesse Plemmons.  Come for the review, stay for the ridiculousness that is Jeff laughing at the most inopportune moments.  Don't ever take him to the river while there's operatic music playing... IMDB synopsis "Charismatic rancher Phil Burbank inspires fear and awe in those around him. When his brother brings home a new wife and her son, Phil torments them until he finds himself exposed to the possibility of love." New music this month is brought to you by the heavy-rock band Mason Pace with the song "King of Hearts", find their music anywhere you get yours!
