The Film Experience - A podcast by Nathaniel Rogers
Categories:
On this "Smackdown" edition of the podcast Nathaniel welcomes comedian/actors Joel Kim Booster (Shrill) and Matt Rogers (Gayme Show), as well as journalist/editor Jazz Tangcay (Variety), and critic Emily VanDerWerff (Vox). We discuss the film year of 2002 but especially the razzle-dazzle 'em joys of Catherine Zeta-Jones and Queen Latifah in Chicago, super-depressed Julianne Moore (and other actresses) in The Hours, Kathy Bates shaking up Alexander Payne's About Schmidt, and the peculiar magic of Meryl in the Charlie Kaufman/Spike Jonze whatsit Adaptation.
