Episode 488: Bullshit Or Not?

Before each of them take their respective vacations, Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy have nine movies for you to check out or throw away. They include Guy Pearce in a Lee Tamahori film about warring Maori tribes (The Convert) and Baltasar Kormákur decades-spanning romantic saga (Touch). Documentaries cover the range of the career of one of our great actresses (Faye) and the horrible behavior that derailed Louis C.K.’s, at least temporarily (Sorry/Not Sorry). Things get strange when Ewan McGregor’s mother won’t leave a furniture store (Mother, Couch) and things get even stranger in a film so baffling it may become a midnight staple (Lumina). KiKi Layn is a musician trying to be heard (Dandelion). Scarlett Johansson tries to sell America’s space race with Channing Tatum (Fly Me to the Moon) and Ozgood Perkins tries to have Nicolas Cage freak us out (Longlegs).
