In Spineless’ first ever guest episode, The Spineless Boys are joined by Adelina Marinello: actor, playwright, and partner to one Nicholas Kinney, to discuss Charlotte Wells’ melancholy masterpiece AFTERSUN. Adelina thirsts over Paul Mescal and explains her deep connection to the film, Nick shares tidbits from Charlotte Wells' commentary, and Brennan discusses watching the film for the first time. There’s trouble in paradise though, as Adelina and the boys discuss Hall Passes (and Nick’s lack thereof), The Costco Guys, and the horrifying realization that you can never truly know another person. Offense to all boys.

The Criterion Collection is an ever-growing roster of movies deemed internationally significant on an artistic level. Each new film added to the collection is given a Spine Number, making any film NOT in the collection: SPINELESS. Join Nick and Brennan as they cover the classic and contemporary films they feel are most deserving of the Criterion treatment.
