HOW DID WE END UP HERE?

This week, we go back to 2015's winner of numerous categories at the Academy Awards, BIRDMAN or (THE UNEXPECTED VIRTUE OF IGNORANCE). We talk about if we consider a pretentious movie inherently bad, the one-take gimmick and if it's enough to carry a movie, Michael Keaton's career, and how our thoughts have evolved since we watched it for the first time years ago. We also catch up after a week off, talk about our various trips and screenings, and run through our thoughts on countless new releases like Mickey 17, The Electric State, All We Imagine as Light, Opus, and more.
