Guess who's back? But don't call it a comeback, as James and I return from.... the last time we did a podcast together to do what we usually do!

With.... everything going on in the world today, and hoo boy is there a lot going on in the world today, we were able to get together to discuss what exactly going to the movies means right now (not going to the movies really), what that would possibly look like for audiences, the industry and more going forward, and then discussing some of the films that we've had a chance to watch during this topsy-turvy time, such as Spike Lee's Da 5 Bloods, Kitty Green's The Assistant, Céline Sciamma's love masterpiece, Portrait of a Lady On Fire, the latest big topical film from Netflix in Charlie Kaufman's I'm Thinking of Ending  Things and much more.

Then, we shift gears with a spin on our usual segment - Actor in a Hat - but this time, thanks to James, we do one for us and we go all the through the latest Best Actor Oscar winner for [insert any of the films he's acted in besides the one he actually won for] Joaquin Phoenix, touching on everything from his brother's, River, passing - which was the anniversary of around the time we recorded this - to his beginnings in the industry, working with directors such as Ridley Scott, James Gray, Paul Thomas Anderson, Lynne Ramsay. And then, yeah, we eventually talk about Joker as well.

Good to be back, and as awkward as it gets at the end, we're glad to have you check us on out again for a listen and a helluva time on listening to us do the usual rant and rave!
