Welcome back to THE DISCOURSE, a podcast about film, entertainment & culture.In this episode, Carl & Tony tackle two related film-centric topics.A recent piece has exposed the alleged dodgy dealings behind Rotten Tomatoes reviewing, leading us to debate the merits and negatives of the site, and how it has influenced Hollywood.Plus! With Roman Polanski's latest film The Palace getting excoriating RT reviews, they wonder if him being a problematic figure could be why, and whether art & artist should remain separate.-Remember: subscribe to THE DISCOURSE+ for early access, ad-free listening and bonus episodes not available to regular listeners.
