Oppenheimer immediately established itself as one of the most important films in recent cinema. And after multiple viewings and further analysis, that belief has only grown stronger.Christopher Nolan has created far more than an entertaining and visually extraordinary epic about the brilliant scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer, whose work helped develop the atomic bomb that the United States ultimately used against Japan during the final days of the Second World War. This is also a film about opening the proverbial tube of toothpaste—releasing something that can never be put back—and forever changing the world as we know it.Nolan's masterful direction, the brilliant performances from the entire ensemble—including Cillian Murphy in the title role, Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jr., Matt Damon, and many others—the exceptional cinematography and editing, and a story that remains as relevant today as ever all combine to make Oppenheimer a truly special, haunting, and powerful cinematic achievement.But looking back, was Oppenheimer truly deserving of the Best Picture Oscar among all the films released in 2023?Listen and find out what film critic Jack Ferdman thinks—and which film he ultimately chooses as his Rewatching Oscar winner for the year.Download, listen, and share ALL Rewatching Oscar episodes.SUBSCRIBE and FOLLOW Rewatching Oscar:Website: https://rewatchingoscar.buzzsprout.comApple Podcasts/iTunesSpotifyGoogle PodcastsiHeart RadioPodchaserPodcast AddictTuneInAlexaAmazon Overcasts Podcast Addict Player FMRSS Feed: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1815964.rssWebsite: https://rewatchingoscar.buzzsprout.comSocial Media Links: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, BlueSkyShare your thoughts and suggestions with us through:Facebook Messenger or email us atjack@rewatchingoscar.com or jackferdman@gmail.comMusic by TurpacShow Producer: Jack FerdmanPodcast Logo Design: Jack FerdmanMovie (audio) trailer courtesy of MovieClips Classic TrailersMovie (audio) clips courtesy of YouTubeSupport us by downloading, sharing, and giving us a 5-star Rating.  It helps our podcast continue to reach many people and make it available to share more episodes with everyone.Send us Fan Mail

This week Charlie is joined by two special guests, Derrick from Bad Movies Worse People and Capt. Steven from Bucket of Chum podcast. The guys cover Edge of Tomorrow...aka Live Die Repeat, a movie that takes the time-loop premise and straps it into a mech suit. Tom Cruise plays a PR officer with zero combat experience who gets dumped into an invasion against alien invaders called Mimics. He dies (spectacularly) in minutes, then wakes up at the start of the same day....over and over. Each reset, he learns, adapts, and gets a little better. Emily Blunt plays the “Angel of Verdun"....his drill sergeant and guide through the loop. What makes it work is the balance: it's funny, brutal, and genuinely clever about how repetition changes a person. It's Groundhog Day meets Saving Private Ryan with sci-fi technology. The action is tight and the story earns its payoff because failure actually matters. This is definitely one everyone should check out.

In the 141st episode of The Extra Buttery Podcast, Robert kicks things off with an extended cold open, sharing his thoughts on recent catch-up watches including BLACK HAWK DOWN (2001), POINT BREAK (1991), and SYNECDOCHE, NEW YORK (2008), much to Jason's delight. The main event begins with DISCLOSURE DAY (24:52), where Jason and Robert clash over their different reactions to the film while exploring whether Emily Blunt is doing the heavy lifting and whether Steven Spielberg no longer feels like must-see cinema. They wrap up with SUPERGIRL (47:22), breaking down Craig Gillespie's new entry in the DC film universe overseen by James Gunn, and discuss why they found it generic, thin, and ultimately uninteresting, and where Supergirl goes from here. Original theme music, intro, and outro composed and performed by Michael Spicer

Steven Spielberg's long‑standing obsession with extraterrestrials has practically become its own cinematic signature. From the awe‑struck wonder of Close Encounters of the Third Kind to the tender magic of E.T., from the apocalyptic terror of War of the Worlds to the pulpy alien chaos tucked inside Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, he's spent decades gazing upward and asking what might be looking back. Now, in 2026, he returns to that cosmic frontier with a new film crafted alongside his longtime collaborator, legendary filmmaker and screenwriter David Koepp.IMDB offers only a single, enigmatic provocation: “If you found out we weren't alone—if someone showed you, proved it to you—would that frighten you?” It's a tease that reveals almost nothing, a whisper of a premise designed to stir curiosity rather than satisfy it. Spielberg has always loved mystery, and here he leans into it fully, letting the question hang in the air like a signal from deep space.What is clear is the strength of the cast. Emily Blunt anchors the film with what early buzz claims may be the most powerful performance of her career. She's joined by Spielberg regulars Colman Domingo and Eve Hewson, along with Josh O'Connor, Wyatt Russell, and Colin Firth—who reportedly devours every moment he's given. With an 80% score on Rotten Tomatoes, the film has landed as a solid, if not earth‑shattering, box office success in Spielberg's extraterrestrial canon. And now your co‑hosts dive in, exploring the movie's mysteries and debating whether the Grays finally step out of the shadows and into a podcast pick.

An AI-generated actor called Tilly Norwood has been cast in the lead role of a forthcoming film, adding to the debate about artificial intelligence in filmmaking. The announcement follows criticism from actors including Emily Blunt and objections from the US performers' union. Eline Van der Velden, founder and CEO of Particle6, explains why she created Tilly Norwood, while Jake Kanter, International Investigations Editor at Deadline, sets out the reaction from the film industry. Andy Burnham has become the UK's new Prime Minister, and his approach to the media is already attracting attention. His team has relied more on social media, online creators and direct communication than on traditional broadcast interviews. Lizzy Buchan, Political Editor of the Daily Mirror, Tom Nicholas, creator of the Slow News Day YouTube channel, and broadcaster Andrew Neil, presenter of The Andrew Neil Report, assess what this could mean for political journalism and public accountability.Presenters: Katie Razzall and Ros Atkins Content Producer: Lucy Wai Assistant Producer: Laura Cain Researcher: Ruth Waites Technical Coordinator: Samuel Iyiola Sound: Robin Schroder

Our summer blockbuster tour is shifting gears, into Steven Spielberg's latest high-budget sci-fi epic: Disclosure Day. The film promises a sprawling, global thriller surrounding humanity's first official contact with alien life, balancing massive spectacle with political intrigue. However, as you'll hear in this episode, the two of us... did not hold back on how much this one let us down.To help us get through our rant, we are shaking up a cocktail by Lemar - KCXE - a cocktail with a flurry of ingredients designed to be strong enough to numb the pain.This week, we break down where the film stumbles despite its stacked cast. We talk through Emily Blunt as a Kansas City TV meteorologist who develops a bizarre psychic connection to extraterrestrial signals, Josh O'Connor as the nervous cybersecurity analyst on the run after leaking government UFO archives, and Colin Firth as the ruthless corporate contractor hunting them down. While we appreciate Janusz Kamiński's glowing 35mm cinematography and John Williams' score, we rant about the frustratingly bloated second act, the bizarre theological arguments, and how Spielberg's usually reliable magic completely loses its way under the weight of its own self-importance.If you love a therapeutic, no-holds-barred episode where we tear into a disappointment, this is the discussion for you.This episode VIDEO is live on YouTube AND Spotify!Follow us on Instagram to get ep sneak peaks and find out what's coming up.

Steven Spielberg is the most famous filmmaker alive, which is exactly why almost nobody actually understands him. Chris and Daniel use Disclosure Day, Spielberg's new alien chase thriller with Emily Blunt, to argue that the "safe, mainstream" reputation is a decades-long misdirection: underneath the crowd-pleasing surface is a genuinely weird, deeply personal artist who has been smuggling strange, uncomfortable ideas inside blockbuster packaging since at least Close Encounters. They trace it through Fabelman's casting David Lynch as John Ford, the theory that Kubrick handed Spielberg AI specifically because Spielberg's glossy reputation could disguise a bleak, unnerving film, and the moment James Lipton caught Spielberg off guard by connecting his parents directly to Close Encounters on camera. Disclosure Day itself is proving strangely divisive, and Chris and Daniel dig into why. They break down its Sugarland Express-style chase structure, an Emily Blunt performance that starts as broad comedy and quietly transforms into something much stranger, a train sequence built to feel genuinely dangerous rather than stylized, and the VFX work from longtime collaborator Matthew Butler. Along the way, a detour into Spielberg's actual filmmaking journey, from Close Encounters to Poltergeist to AI, makes the case that his reputation as the "obvious" director has always been the biggest misdirection in his own filmography.

Movie of the Year: 2006The Devil Wears Prada (feat. Katie Walsh!)The Devil Wears Prada Podcast Episode: Fashion, Power, and the Best of 2006Welcome to The Devil Wears Prada podcast episode from Movie of the Year: 2006. This week, the Taste Buds enter the gleaming offices of Runway magazine. Furthermore, they bring backup. Film critic Katie Walsh joins Mike, Greg, and Ryan to decide whether David Frankel's fashion-world comedy can survive the 2006 bracket. Along the way, the panel debates feminism in the workplace, the myth of the suffering artist, and the eternal question of Andy's terrible friends. Additionally, the episode features a full Anne Hathaway Career Retrospective bracket. Consequently, this one runs deep on both style and substance.About the FilmThe Devil Wears Prada arrived in the summer of 2006 and promptly stole it. Director David Frankel adapted Lauren Weisberger's bestselling novel about a young journalist grinding through an impossible job. Anne Hathaway stars as Andy Sachs, an aspiring writer who lands a position at Runway magazine. Her boss is Miranda Priestly, the most feared editor in fashion, played by Meryl Streep in an Oscar-nominated performance. Moreover, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci deliver career-launching supporting turns. The film earned over $300 million worldwide and near-universal acclaim. Notably, Roger Ebert praised Streep's icy, understated Miranda as the engine of the whole picture. For more background, the Wikipedia entry on The Devil Wears Prada covers its production and legacy in detail. The film now faces its toughest challenge yet: the Movie of the Year 2006 bracket.Guest Panelist: Katie WalshThe Devil Wears Prada 2006 podcast episode welcomes a genuine authority to the panel. Katie Walsh is a Los Angeles-based film critic who reviews weekly releases for the Tribune News Service and the Los Angeles Times. Additionally, she serves as Vice President of the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. Her writing has appeared in GQ, Vanity Fair, Rolling Stone, Vulture, Slate, and The Playlist. She co-hosted the podcast Miami Nice and has guest-hosted Switchblade Sisters. Furthermore, she frequently appears on KCRW's Press Play and has taught film criticism at Chapman University's Dodge College of Film and Media Arts. In practice, that means the Taste Buds must actually defend their takes this week. Someone in the room knows what she is talking about.Feminism and the WorkplaceIs Miranda Priestly a feminist icon or a cautionary tale? The panel digs into how the film frames women, power, and ambition. Miranda runs an empire, yet the film punishes her with a collapsing marriage. Meanwhile, Andy gets scolded by nearly everyone for taking her job seriously. The episode asks whether the movie critiques workplace sexism or accidentally reproduces it. Notably, Katie Walsh brings a critic's perspective to how 2006 audiences read Miranda versus how we read her now. Two decades of think pieces have flipped the film's villain into its hero. Ultimately, the panel debates whether that reversal says more about the movie or about us.Can Art Only Come from Suffering?Andy suffers for a job she claims to hate, all in service of her writing dreams. Consequently, the Taste Buds tackle a bigger question: does great art require misery? The film suggests that paying dues at Runway makes Andy a better journalist. However, it also shows the cost. She loses friends, a boyfriend, and nearly herself. The panel weighs the romantic myth of the starving artist against the reality of creative work. By contrast, some of the best art comes from stability, support, and cerulean-blue sweaters chosen by someone else. Above all, this segment asks what we actually owe our ambitions.Andy's Friends: The Worst People in FashionEvery rewatch of The Devil Wears Prada produces the same realization: Andy's friends are monsters. They mock her job, demand free designer swag, and play keep-away with her work phone. Meanwhile, her boyfriend Nate pouts because she missed his birthday party for her career. Therefore, the panel litigates the great question of the film's second act. Are these people grounding Andy in reality, or are they sabotaging her? Specifically, the group ranks the friends from least to most insufferable. Nevertheless, at least one Taste Bud attempts a defense of Nate. It does not go well.Anne Hathaway Career Retrospective: The BracketSpecial segment time. The Devil Wears Prada podcast crew builds a full bracket to determine Anne Hathaway's most iconic role. The field spans her entire career. The Princess Diaries, Brokeback Mountain, Rachel Getting Married, Les Misérables, The Dark Knight Rises, and Interstellar all enter the arena. Additionally, deep cuts and dark horses make surprise appearances. Seeding arguments get heated. Upsets happen. As a result, friendships within the panel are tested. Does Andy Sachs herself take the crown, or does an Oscar-winning turn steal it? You will have to listen to find out. Check Anne Hathaway's full filmography on IMDb and play along at home.Why The Devil Wears Prada Still MattersTwenty years later, The Devil Wears Prada refuses to fade. The film remains a Rosetta Stone for conversations about work, ambition, and the price of excellence. Miranda's cerulean monologue is still the definitive speech about how culture actually functions. Moreover, the movie launched Emily Blunt, redefined Anne Hathaway, and gave Meryl Streep one of her signature roles. A 2026 sequel proved the appetite never left. In addition, the film's questions have only grown sharper in the era of hustle culture and quiet quitting. Is Miranda a monster or simply held to a different standard? Ultimately, that debate keeps the film alive, and it makes for a fierce competitor in the Movie of the Year 2006 tournament.Related Episodes from Movie of the Year: 2006Catch up on the season so far, from the 2006 season introduction to the music that defined the year:Movie of the Year 2006: Intro Part 1The 2006 Bracket Reveal: Meet the Sweet 16Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull StoryThe 2006 Mixtape, Part IAll Movie of the Year episodesFAQ: The Devil Wears Prada Podcast and FilmWhat is this episode of The Devil Wears Prada podcast about?The Taste Buds and critic Katie Walsh debate whether The Devil Wears Prada deserves to advance in the Movie of the Year 2006 bracket. Topics include workplace feminism, art and suffering, Andy's awful friends, and a full Anne Hathaway career bracket.What is The Devil Wears Prada about?Aspiring journalist Andy Sachs takes a job assisting Miranda Priestly, the tyrannical editor of Runway magazine. Consequently, Andy must decide how much of herself she will trade for success.Who directed The Devil Wears Prada?David Frankel directed the film. He later directed Marley & Me and worked extensively on Sex and the City. Aline Brosh McKenna wrote the screenplay from Lauren Weisberger's novel.Who stars in The Devil Wears Prada?Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci lead the cast. Streep earned an Academy Award nomination for playing Miranda Priestly.More Questions About The Devil Wears PradaIs Miranda Priestly based on Anna Wintour?Widely, yes. Author Lauren Weisberger worked as an assistant to Vogue editor Anna Wintour, and Miranda is broadly understood as her fictional counterpart. However, Streep has said she modeled the performance on powerful men she knew rather than on Wintour.Who is the guest on this episode?Film critic Katie Walsh joins the panel. She reviews films for the Tribune News Service and the Los Angeles Times and serves as Vice President of the Los Angeles Film Critics Association.What is the Anne Hathaway Career Retrospective?It is a bracket-style special segment. The panel seeds Anne Hathaway's most famous roles against each other and votes round by round until one iconic performance remains.Why does The Devil Wears Prada still matter?The film remains the defining movie about ambition, mentorship, and toxic workplaces. Moreover, its cultural conversation keeps evolving, as the 2026 sequel proved.

Steven Spielberg listens to Story Nerd. My proof? In a recent interview with The New York Times, he said, "The first thing I look for [in a story] is a very compelling premise. The second thing is a character we can hitch our wagons to." THIS is exactly what Melanie and I have been discussing all season.

Josh is joined by Steven Spielberg Correspondent Josh Brown to talk about Spielberg's newest film, "Disclosure Day." They discuss if Spielberg and co-writer David Koepp found a unique enough story to justify Spielberg's returning to sci-fi (and alien-focused subject matter), the performances from a cast that included Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor and Colin Firth, a long digression about Steven Spielberg's politics and his recent move to New York City and much more!

Send us Fan MailWelcome back to DMRs Disclosure Day Spoiler Review! In this episode, we break down Steven Spielberg's highly anticipated 2026 sci-fi outer worldly thriller, analysing how it serves as the ultimate culmination of his alien legacy. We track his cosmic evolution over fifty years, contrasting the child-like wonder of Close Encounters of the Third Kind and E.T. with the visceral, post-9/11 apocalyptic dread of War of the Worlds, leading directly into the deep-state corporate paranoia of his latest masterpiece.Our comprehensive cast and character breakdown features stellar performances from Emily Blunt as the telepathic meteorologist Margaret Fairchild, Josh O'Connor as cybersecurity whistleblower Dr. Daniel Kellner, and Colin Firth playing brilliantly against type as the cold corporate villain Noah Scanlon, alongside powerhouse roles from Eve Hewson and Colman Domingo. Plus, we countdown the top 10 spoiler moments from the David Koepp-penned script and connect the film's tense plot to real-world UFO disclosure history—from the iconic 1947 Roswell crash to Brazil's legendary 1996 Varginha incident, right up to the modern satellite data leaks of 2026.Chapters 0:00 Intro & Audible 30-Day Free Trial03:25 Spielberg's Alien Films07:22 What is Disclosure Day09:21 Real World Alien Events17:01 The Characters & Cast20:27 Disclosure Day Spoilers 26:17 DMRs Verdict If you like this deep dive DMR review hit like, share and subscribe!#disclosureday #alien #aliens #ufo #ufos #conspiracyDMR is proud to be part of the Audible Creator Program.

American mixed martial artist and actor Ryan Bader joins the podcast to talk about his journey from law school and a cubicle sales job to becoming a professional fighter. What started as helping a friend train for the UFC turned into a passion, and after a handful of fights, Ryan realized he had found his career. Ryan also shares how acting unexpectedly entered his life when director Benny Safdie reached out about an audition. With encouragement from Emily Blunt, he began exploring opportunities beyond the fight world. The conversation covers the mental side of fighting, the long wait before stepping into the cage on fight night, and the surprising twists that can come from taking a chance on something new.

“Everybody wants to be us.” Join Ian & Liam for our 337th episode as we slip into designer shoes, grab the garment bags, and survive another impossible day at Runway magazine with The Devil Wears Prada (2006). Megs isn't with us this week — Miranda Priestly spotted her wearing cerulean before she'd learned why it was cerulean and immediately reassigned her to the Paris office. Kev? He's still trying to fetch the unpublished Harry Potter manuscript, a flight to Miami, and a steak for Miranda... all before lunch. This week we discuss: Meryl Streep's iconic performance — restrained, terrifying, and endlessly quotable. Is Miranda Priestly one of the greatest screen bosses ever created? Anne Hathaway's Andy Sachs — idealistic, ambitious, and increasingly compromised. Is her transformation inspiring, tragic, or somewhere in between? Emily Blunt steals every scene — razor-sharp timing, impeccable delivery, and why Emily Charlton remains one of the film's most beloved characters. Stanley Tucci's Nigel — warmth, wit, and heartbreak. Does he quietly become the emotional centre of the film? Ian breaks down the screenplay — how the film effortlessly balances workplace comedy, character drama, and biting satire. Liam explores the film's central question — is success worth sacrificing the people and principles that got you there? The fashion world — superficial excess, genuine artistry, or something much more complicated than the film's critics often admit? The "cerulean sweater" speech — one of the great monologues of modern cinema. Does it completely redefine how we understand Miranda? The "show vs tell" balance — how the film uses costume, performance, and visual storytelling to chart Andy's evolution without ever needing to announce it. The ending — personal victory, professional failure, or exactly the compromise Andy needed to make? And finally, whether The Devil Wears Prada is the Best Film Ever — or simply one of the smartest and most rewatchable comedies of the 21st century.

Disclosure Day is Steven Spielberg's first alien movie in over two decades, and he's calling it the conclusion to a spiritual trilogy that started with Close Encounters and E.T. That's a big swing. We went to see if he pulled it off.Josh, Garrett, and David caught the film together at Circle Cinema in Tulsa — packed house, no assigned seats, the whole thing — and then recorded this. They talk about why the final act works harder than the first two, Emily Blunt's shot at awards season, what the film gets wrong about how the internet works (and why that doesn't matter), and whether Spielberg is actually using aliens to say something about loneliness, faith, and a world that stopped listening to itself.Ratings land at 3.5, 4, and 4.5 stars — which means someone's wrong.

In this episode we discuss Steven Spielberg's newest film, sharing our excitement going in and our mixed reactions afterward. We praise Janusz Kaminski's cinematography, several standout shots, solid editing, and strong performances from Emily Blunt, Colman Domingo, Josh O'Connor, Eve Hewson, and Colin Firth, while getting into the repetitive structure, shaky logic, unclear stakes, and a surprisingly disappointing score that turns out to be by John Williams.

It’s about a meteorologist and a cybersecurity expert who find themselves at the center of a movement to expose the government's cover-up of extraterrestrial secrets. Mike shares why the movie let him down, what he feels Spielberg missed the boat on, and why Emily Blunt was the best part of the movie. In the Trailer Park, Mike talks about Ridley Scott’s new film The Dog Stars starring Jacob Elordi, Josh Brolin, and Margaret Qualley coming out later this summer.

This week the BGH crew emerges from the theater to review Steven Spielberg's “Disclosure Day”,  and along the way asks the question; What happens when an 80 year old tries to say something profound and completely misses the mark? We also talk about tall greys, our own feelings on aliens and whether or not the world would even blink twice if someone actually attempted full disclosure.   Disclosure Day is a 2026 American science fiction thriller film directed and produced by Steven Spielberg from a screenplay by David Koepp, based on a story by Spielberg. The film stars an ensemble cast, including Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor, Colin Firth, Eve Hewson, and Colman Domingo. As the world stands poised on the brink of World War III, cybersecurity specialist Dr. Daniel Kellner steals from the Wardex Corporation, a secret arm of the U.S. government, a piece of extraterrestrial technology and related files, detailing various events of human–alien contact dating back to the Roswell incident. Wardex CEO Noah Scanlon discovers the theft and has Daniel branded a foreign spy, making him the target of federal authorities. Daniel goes into hiding at a convent with his girlfriend, Jane Blankenship. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Spielberg is back talking about aliens, and there has been a lot of speculation that DISCLOSURE DAY may tie into his other movies. There's only one way to find out... listen to a podcast about it!

It's no secret that Steven Spielberg is fascinated with the cosmos. His latest aliens-are-among-us action thriller, “Disclosure Day,” follows a TV weatherperson (Emily Blunt) and an encryption specialist (Josh O'Connor) as they attempt to understand their connection to life beyond this planet. In doing so, they get entangled in a government cover-up. Ahead of the movie's release, Wesley Morris spent time with Spielberg and wrote a profile of him for The New York Times Magazine. The 79-year-old director's appetite for telling stories on the big screen is undiminished — he's preparing to make his first western — but Wesley writes that as Hollywood adapts to the streaming era, “the idea of a Steven Spielberg has felt endangered.” And so, there's only one person for Wesley to call when a new Spielberg drops: Eric Hynes, Wesley's pal and former co-worker from Kim's Video in New York City. They started their Spielberg conversation over 25 years ago as young cinephiles. On today's episode, it continues. Together, they consider the evolution of aliens in Spielberg's work, relive memorable onscreen sequences and think about the strength of the filmmaker's more-than-half-century canon.

Spoilers for Disclosure Day. Jason and Rachel review Disclosure Day, Steven Spielberg's new alien movie starring Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor, Colman Domingo, Colin Firth, and Wyatt Russell. There are things to like here: Emily Blunt is great, Colman Domingo remains a human weighted blanket, and a few sequences feel like vintage Spielberg. But the movie's big alien reveal, TV station climax, confusing character logic, and “world peace / just listen” ending left us deeply frustrated. We talk Close Encounters comparisons, little green men, thumb drives, World War III, invisible fire trucks, AI-era skepticism, David Koepp, Spielberg nostalgia, and why Disclosure Day ends up as a disappointed thumbs down.

Hello, beautiful souls! Welcome back to the Angels & Awakening Podcast. I'm your host and author, Julie Jancis. Friends, I just got back from seeing Disclosure Day — Steven Spielberg's new film — and I could not wait to sit down and talk about it with you. This is one of those episodes that starts as a movie review and ends somewhere much, much bigger. We're talking about consciousness, messengers, empathy, super intelligence, aliens, God, and why I believe everything that's coming is actually really, really good news for humanity.

In this episode, we review the latest science fiction film directed by Steven Spielberg, titled Disclosure Day, starring Emily Blunt, Josh O’Connor, Colin Firth, Eve Hewson, and Colman Domingo. We discuss whether Steven Spielberg still has the skill as a legendary director, and we debate whether the film successfully delivers on its plot.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
