Episode description

This week we reviewed three films that all opened in Australian cinemas last week, but otherwise have little else in common.

Our guest host Thomas Caldwell was joined by Silvi Vann-Wall and Vyshnavee Wijekumar.

They discuss Richard Gere’s reunion with American Gigolo writer and director Paul Schrader in Oh, Canada (also starring Uma Thurman and Jacob Elordi); the first fully animated Looney Tunes feature film, The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie, showcasing magnificent craftsmanship in its 2D animation and hitting the nostalgic feels; and Kazuhiro Soda's observationist documentary The Cats of Gokogu Shrine, which reveals a community collectively caring for stray cats.
