'Transformers 4,' 'Begin Again,' 'Obvious Child,' and Movie Therapy

from The Takeaway: Movie Date · host PRX, GBH, WNYC Studios

In this week's Movie Date podcast, Rafer and Kristen ask: When is a robot fight sequence too violent? Why is Hollywood afraid to depict abortion? Does Hollywood understand the music industry? And would a movie centering on lawn darts be a hit? It's all in honor of this week's big releases: "Transformers 4: Age of Extinction," "Obvious Child," and "Begin Again." They also offer up some Movie Therapy to a listener who's both sick and homesick. And, as always, there's Movie Trivia! Big thanks this week to Jay Cowit and Kurt Leege for their great music and lyrics!  Subscribe to the Movie Date podcast, like Movie Date on Facebook, follow Kristen on Twitter, and leave a message for Rafer and Kristen anytime at 571-7MOVIES (571-766-8437).
