This week on the Movie Squad pod, Tristan Fidler and Simon Miraudo look at two movies that each save the cat… and that's where the similarities end. First up, Simon leads a review of Sorry, Baby, the darkly funny directorial debut of writer and star Eva Victor, about a young English professor reckoning with ‘the terrible thing' that happened to them. Then, Tristan looks at Darren Aronofsky's rollicking thriller Caught Stealing, starring Austin Butler, Zoe Kravitz, Matt Smith and more. And yes, just like Sorry, Baby, it has a cat co-star. Would it shock you to learn that Brekky host Pam Boland reveals during this episode that she has not yet read Blake Snyder's iconic screenwriting book ‘Save the Cat'?

From the bowels of a bustling Times Square restaurant (shot on a stage in Mexico) to a 1,000km coastal walk around England, Movie Squad goes around the globe this week.
