On the Floor is still on its break but I didn’t want to leave you all bereft of hearing my voice or my take on things for too long so I decided to enlist the help of Journeys in Classic Film’s Kristen Lopez to chat about some of the divisive movies that have come out. In this recording, she and I discuss how the tools of cinema failed The Revenant, how we were unmoved by the sadness in Anomalisa, bash the politics of The Hateful Eight, and sing the surprising virtues of Joy. Enjoy!
