Winter's Tale

This week, the great Charlie Schumann joins us for the tenth anniversary spectacular look at notorious bomb Winter's Tale. A sweeping epic in which Colin Farrell plays an immigrant street thief who befriends a magic horse (?) and discovers he's a pawn in the eternal battle between God and Satan (??) and then lives for a century so he can fulfil his destiny (?????????????), the film was received with much derision and quickly forgotten save for the odd meme or two. We touch on its reputation and general failures, and along the way discuss the legacy of so bad it's good movies, the artistic crimes of writer/director Akiva Goldsman, what remains of Colin's dreamboat status, and just how the hell they got Will Smith to play Satan at this point in his career.
