In episode seventeen of movies imo., Ben, Brandon, and Daniel yell over each other about Jordan Peele’s surrealist horror flick (and directorial debut) GET OUT, as well as the films of Luis Buñuel that earlier carved such a surprising space for social critique. Unquestionably the movie of the moment, Peele’s tone-hopping take on American race relations has dominated the cultural conversation since last February, culminating in four Academy Award nominations including Best Picture and Director, so your fav film f*gz take the opportunity to weigh in with their own enthusiasm for his masterful genre exploration and sharp satirical critique. Daniel won’t shut up about the first act, Brandon stands for the twists and turns of the second, and Ben wonders how he could’ve elevated the third.
