It’s always a joy to hop on the mic and talk with Perry about movies, but there’s perhaps no greater time than right after the Oscars. Perry’s one of the great Oscars experts and analysts, and I’m always excited to talk about the year’s winners, losers, and the show itself. This year, we talk about One Battle After Another taking home Best Picture and Best Director trophies, among others, as well as the showing by Sinners. We also discuss the fantastic In Memoriam segment, the not-so-great audio mixing, and we’re split on Conan O’ Brien’s hosting duties.
But if it’s always fun to talk Oscars, I’ve found it even more fun to dive into the films of David Lynch. This month, we’re talking his 1999 film The Straight Story, a G-rated Disney movie that still feels like Lynch in all the right ways. I loved it. I admit I’m a bit sad that we’re nearing the end of this series — but I’m also excited that we still have a revisit of Mulholland Drive, my first Inland Empire viewing, and the entirety of Twin Peaks to come!
