Emma, Billy Bob, and "Night Teeth"
In another free-wheeling feisty episode, Steve and Kate share their thoughts on:
Streaming
- "Emma," an enjoyable 2020 Jane Austen adaptation starring Anya Taylor-Joy ("The Queen's Gambit")
- "Destination Wedding" (2018), a love-or-hate-it rom-com with Winona Ryder and Keanu Reeves as two misanthropes thrown together at a wedding
- "Night Teeth" (2021), a so-so horror/action/comedy thriller with a young chauffeur caught up in vampire wars in L.A.
- "Friday Night Lights," the much-loved TV series with Kyle Chandler as a high school football coach in Texas
Books
- "The Billy Bob Tapes: A Cave Full of Ghosts," a fun book in which Kinky Friedman recorded his friend Billy Bob Thornton telling stories about his childhood in Arkansas, playing music, his movie career, and his weird phobias (Komodo dragons?!)
