Nightlife critic of screens large and small, Wen Lei Ma joins Philip Clark to review the latest to watch.
This 2018 Dramedy stars Mark Wahlberg, Rose Byrne, Isabela Merced, Octavia Spencer and Tig Notaro. We deep dive into the lives of two DINK, house flippers who have decided that what they need in life is... Chaos. Coming from 2 parents, going from 0 kids to 1 kid is rough. Going from 0 kids to 3 kids overnight is insanity. Throw in the fact that you skip a bunch of years and they already have personalities that you don't know. Not just that, but these kids have had it ROUGH, so they're understandably a little skeptical. Parenting can be challenging, foster parenting is a gauntlet.
This is one mother of a Movie Squad episode. Tristan Fidler and Simon Miraudo once again join Brekky host Pam Boland to tell her about what's playing in cinemas (this week, it's films with a maternal edge). But first, Pam shares her thoughts on the Marlon Williams documentary Two Worlds – Ngā Ao E Rua. Then, Tristan reviews Die My Love, an explosive drama about postpartum depression that sees Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson team up with director Lynne Ramsay. Simon follows that up with a review of the dread-inducing Dragonfly, part of the 2025 British Film Festival, which stars Brenda Blethyn as an elderly woman being cared for by her odd duck of a neighbour, played by Andrea Riseborough. Stay tuned for Tristan's pod-exclusive review of the extremely stressful comedic drama If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, starring Rose Byrne as a mother on the brink and Conan O'Brien as her uncaring therapist. It opens in Australian cinemas next week. Be sure to tune in to RTRFM every Friday at 7:30am to hear Movie Squad live on Breakfast with Pam!

Rose Byrne (If I Had Legs I Would Kick You, Damages, Neighbors) is an Emmy Award-nominated actor. Rose joins the Armchair Expert to discuss being rejected from every drama school she applied to in Australia, not having the confidence to discern between early roles, and whether she identifies as a people pleaser. Rose and Dax talk about playing the straight man in Bridesmaids, getting into a loose comedic rhythm with longtime collaborator Seth Rogan, and her improv baptism by fire making Get Him to the Greek. Rose explains how much she enjoys seeing a comedic actor do a dramatic part, accepting as she gets older that we all need to dance around the apartment more, and throwing herself deeply into her grueling new film If I Had Legs I Would Kick You.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

Writer/Director Mary Bronstein and Supervising Sound Editor, Sound Designer, and Re-recording Mixer Filipe Messeder join us to discuss “If I Had Legs I'd Kick You” — the searing and darkly funny new indie film from A24 about the dark side of motherhood. Featuring a tour-de-force performance by Rose Byrne, the film made quite a splash when it premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival. Despite its relatively small budget, quite a lot of work went into the sound design of the film, with a sometimes unconventional, yet wildly effective approach to sound as a storytelling tool.“By using sound design, it's not so much what a score does… it's world building. It's building the world that she lives in and some of it is in her head… When you see it in a theater, some of those cues are making your chest bones rumble. In a quite literal way, it's happening to you. And in the same way that it's happening to her… So it's taking her inner world and it's externalizing it for the viewer.”—Mary Bronstein, Writer/Director, “If I Had Legs I'd Kick You”Be sure to check out “If I Had Legs I'd Kick You,” now playing in select theaters (and nationwide this Friday) in Dolby Atmos® where available.Please subscribe to Dolby Creator Talks wherever you get your podcasts.You can also check out the video for this episode on YouTube.Learn more about the Dolby Creator Lab and check out Dolby.com.

BIFF 2025: Vi er i Bergen, og i denne første festivalepisoden fra årets utgave av BIFF rapporterer vi om et knippe filmer vi har sett, blant dem Mary Bronsteins If I Had Legs I'd Kick You og László Nemes' Orphan («Árva»). Montages deltar denne uken på Bergen internasjonale filmfestival (BIFF), og sammen med vestlandshovedstadens engasjerte publikum og andre tilreisende gjester, har vi beveget oss inn ut av kinomørket de siste dagene og forsynt oss fra det rikholdige programmet festivalen har servert. I samtalen nedenfor deler vi våre tanker om filmene vi har sett i første halvdel av årets BIFF (som pågår helt til 23. oktober). Vi snakker om det angstfylte dramaet If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, der Rose Byrne spiller en terapeut på randen, Orphan, en dramatisk oppvekstskildring fra etterkrigstidens Ungarn, og Rebuilding, et moderne westerndrama om tap og forsoning med Josh O'Connor i hovedrollen. Vi har også sett to dokumentarer som gjorde inntrykk – Laura Poitras‘ og Mark Obenhaus‘ Cover-Up, en politisk ladet film om den 88-årige gravejournalisten Seymour Hersh, og Rachel Grady og Heidi Ewings Folktales, en eventyrlig og tankevekkende skildring av livet på Pasvik folkehøgskole i Finnmark. Episoden inneholder ingen spoilere. Ved mikrofonene sitter Karsten Meinich og Pernille Middelthon. God lytting!
In this episode of the No Film School Podcast, GG Hawkins speaks with writer-director Mary Bronstein about her searing psychological comedy-drama If I Had Legs, I'd Kick You. The film, starring Rose Byrne, Conan O'Brien, Christian Slater, and A$AP Rocky, explores the emotional breakdown of a woman navigating a mysterious illness in her child, an absentee husband, and a dangerously dependent relationship with her therapist. Premiering at Sundance and earning Rose Byrne a Silver Bear at Berlinale, the film has received critical acclaim for its raw emotional honesty and darkly comedic tone. Mary shares her deeply collaborative process with actors—particularly Byrne—and how performance, not just plot or technique, is the true core of her work. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins and guest Mary Bronstein discuss... Mary's non-traditional journey into directing via acting and method training Why understanding acting is essential for directors The intense six-week collaborative prep process Mary and Rose Byrne underwent to develop the character of Linda How Mary tailors her directing style to unlock emotionally raw, performance-driven cinema The importance of maintaining artistic integrity over commercial conformity Why most screenwriting classes and formatting “rules” are, in Mary's words, “bullshit” The difference between directing for performance versus directing for aesthetics Mary's perspective on the resurgence of a new indie golden age Memorable Quotes: "If your performances are shit, your movie is shit to me." (12:49) "By the time we get to set, there is nothing you could do that would be wrong." (30:34) "My struggle is a creative one, not a commercial one." (42:08) "You don't wait for permission."

Before cementing her status as a bonafide comedic talent, Rose Byrne (Bridesmaids, Neighbors) was known for more dramatic roles. Now, the Australian actor is combining those skills in the new comedy-drama, “If I Had Legs I'd Kick You.” During this year's Toronto International Film Festival, Rose sat down with Tom Power to discuss the film and what it was like co-starring with Conan O'Brien in his first serious acting role. She also told us how she broke out of her shell as a shy kid, how she and Heath Ledger helped each other out as young Australians in Hollywood, and what she thinks about her one line from “Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones.”
The Aussie actress reflects on what she learned from her years working alongside Glenn Close on 'Damages'; how she and the industry discovered her comedic side, leading to memorable turns in 'Bridesmaids,' 'Spy' and other projects; and the the unique challenges and rewards of her latest film, in which she plays a woman whose life is literally and figuratively crashing down around her.

The nightmarish stresses of motherhood and work are pushed to their absurdist extremes in Mary Bronstein's stellar piece of cinematic anxiety, starring a bravura Rose Byrne (Berlinale Silver Bear winner) as a woman on the verge of something far beyond a nervous breakdown. The 63rd New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex.
The New York Film Festival kicked off this weekend with a number of world premieres. Vulture film critic Fran Hoepfner talks about the festival so far, and previews some upcoming screenings, including Bradley Cooper's latest directorial work, a chaotic tale of parental exhaustion starring Rose Byrne and two documentaries about the situation in Gaza.
Send us a textKatie and Bridget refuse to get on the train to the quarantined zombie land as they re-watch the 2nd installment in the series: 28 Weeks Later! We're back in London where apparently all the zombies have starved out and now the AMERICAN ARMY has come in to take over because that JUST. MAKES. SENSE!(?!) But unfortunately our beloved characters from the 1st movie are nowhere to be seen. Instead we've got siblings Andy and Tammy who are being reunited with their Dad, who shall be known as "Fucking-Don". When they find their Mom alive and well after their Dad gaslighted them into thinking he didn't leave her for dead, chaos ensues and yet another god damn zombie apocalypse commences. Although this time we at least have Jeremy Renner and Idris Elba to look at throughout it, so that's cool. We've got loads of questions, unlikeable/unknown characters, and little to no fun ethical conversations in this sequel to 28 Days Later, which doesn't really compare in the slightest. Released in 2007, it stars Jeremy Renner, Rose Byrne, Robert Carlyle, Harold Perrineau, Catherine McCormack, Idris Elba, Imogen Poots, and Mackintosh Muggleton.
