We’ve hit another year of the podcast, arriving at our milestone 300th episode! No better way to celebrate that by finally revisiting one of the past decades most notorious bombs, 2016’s Collateral Beauty<\/em>. Starring Will Smith as a grieving father, this all-star cast includes Edward Norton, Michael Pe\u00f1a, and Kate Winslet as his three friend who devise a plan to… oust Smith from their advertising firm by… hiring three struggling actors (Helen Mirren, Keira Knightley, and Jacob Latimore) to… portray the concepts of Death, Love, and Time that he has been writing letters to, and make him appear mentally unstable. Yeah, this one goes some places!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This episode, we talk about how the film’s imbalance with magical realism makes it more deranged. We also talk about Smith’s Oscar-chasing dramatic roles pre-slap, Ann Dowd as a felony committing private investigator, and the previous talent attached to this buzzy but ill-begotten project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Topics also include Winslet joining our 6 Timers Club,\u00a0Rogue On<\/em>e, and our Best Of ballots for the last year of the show!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
