Jonathan (@Berkreviews) and Corey (@coreyrstarr) dive into June 2020 looking for truth in cinema...or at least what is often sold as "truth" in the form of documentaries. The Truth Is Out There has the duo looking at documentaries that at least one of them has not seen each week of the month. Utilization of the streaming services will play a big factor in this case.
As far as the podcast goes, each episode features an in-depth review of the movie for the week. They begin with a spoiler-free review before diving in completely after the needed spoiler warning. However, before getting into the review of the week, Jonathan and Corey discuss what other movies they've seen since the last episode as well as anything else they feel like discussing. To help them decide which of the many films to watch each month they started creating themes for them all.
Week 1 - A Secret Love (2020)
Corey selected A Secret Love (2020) that was set to debut at SXSW 2020, before it was shut down due to COVID-19, is now available to watch on Netflix. The film is directed by Chris Bolan and features Terry Donahue and Pat Henschel. Terry and Pat fell in love in 1947, a time when two women being a couple was not socially appropriate -- which, to be real, wasn't really acceptable until a few years ago to many and still too many dispute their right to love--, and this film documents their stories of struggle and how coming out in their later years presents a new set of problems.
