There’s just something about an old-fashioned library that can be so sexy. In this episode, we’re joined by Jessica from Get Your Binge On to cover one of her favorite movies of all time — Atonement (2007). And buckle up because it’s a heartbreaker. We talk about the many nuances of this movie, including the romance of it all, our complex feelings on Briony, and book vs. film comparisons. Plus, we get into THAT scene, the inconvenience of typewriters, and our hardest Dick of the Flick choice yet. What can we say, crazy things can happen in the hot summer days.
