Also in this show, we bring you Feature Reviews of The Handmaiden and Man Down and Captain Fantastic and Hunt for the Wilderpeople. This episode also features a very brief visit from a guy named “Kandi.” So, we bring you a typical, two-hour episode with lots of reviews, and then we bring you 75 more minutes of additional movie discussion! Join us!
