Episode description

For this week's show and tell, Emily brings three thrillers (Copycat, Arlington Road and Runaway Jury) that she has watched recently and found oddly comforting, despite some extremely dark subject matter, and Ed brings Rumble in the Bronx, the film that really broke Jackie Chan as a major star in the US. They discuss the decline of the mid-budget movie, the thrill of seeing real people do wild stunts, and the value of un-selfconscious movies. They also talk about the success of A Quiet Place Part II, Amazon buying MGM, and Matt LeBlanc becoming an Irish icon.
