Rebecca, On the Rocks, and toobin a crisp rat

Criticism Is Dead - A podcast by Criticism Is Dead

Categories:

We discuss Rebecca (2020) and On the Rocks (2020)—two films, both alike in content (marriage) and watchability (background noise). 00:41 Rebecca, out on Netflix, is the latest, cynical example of how big streaming fare can go wrong. 10:03 On the Rocks, available on Apple TV+, is basically Sofia Coppola for normies. Ouch! 16:37 Plus, culture notes about two famous men and their dumb defenders. In the words of Astead W. Herndon, "don’t take Ls on behalf of someone else currently in the process of L taking." Advice to live by! Follow us on Twitter and Instagram. For extended show notes and bonus links, subscribe to our Substack.
