Jordan and Brad once again pit two theaters together to ask the age old question, which one is the better movie theater? This week, AMC Sunset 5 and CGV Cinemas! Also, Jordan asks Brad to tell him a deep and dark secret! PLUGS: Brad’s other podacst, Barjory Buffet: Cruise Detective, was nominated for several podcasting awards (5!) !!!! Jordan wrote a really funny Tom Cruise movie! If you want to read it, just ask!
Where'd You Go, Bernadette has finally arrived in theaters. The Richard Linklater film starring Cate Blanchett was set for release on May 11, 2018, but it was pushed back four times until it was dumped into theaters on August 16, 2019. We knew something was amiss with this one from seeing the trailers ever since we began the Lodgecast last year. Oh boy were we correct. Where'd we go for this one? The AMC Sunset 5 was the setting, but Linklater took us to the ends of earth and the edge of our sanity in this two-hour adaptation of the bestselling novel. Besides Cate Blanchett, the movie also features Billy Crudup, Kristen Wiig, Judy Greer, and the always delightful Laurence Fishburne. Listen to our podcast episode and find out where Bernadette went!
PLUGS: Brad had a successful tweet. Follow him at @BradBeideman Jordan wants to plug THE BEACH BUM, a great movie. It’s probably not in any theaters anymore, so watch it when it comes out on VOD or when it’s on HBO or something. Magi refuses to plug something.
You might be wondering, "What happened to Neil Jordan?" The Irish film director, who brought us The Crying Game (1992) and Interview with the Vampire (1994), has been steadily working through the 21st century on movies and TV. When we saw he was joining forces with the great French actress Isabelle Huppert for a thriller movie called Greta, we had to see what the result was. We hit up the AMC Sunset 5 and recorded this podcast Live on the Sunset Strip. One Lodger was unable to complete the entirety of the film, but the rest of us remained for a pretty basic psychological thriller. The movie also stars Chloë Grace Moretz, Maika Monroe, Colm Feore, and Neil Jordan's muse Stephen Rea.
