With Saturday Night<\/em> currently in theaters, we are revisiting the films of Jason Reitman for one of his biggest flops. Adapted from the novel by Joyce Maynard, 2013’s Labor Day<\/em> casts Kate Winslet as a grieving mother who falls in love with the escaped convict (played by Josh Brolin) who hides out in her and her son’s home. The melodrama was something of a creative pivot for Reitman, but received poor reviews at festivals before stumbling towards a qualifying release. A Golden Globe nomination for Winslet was the end of the awards road for the film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This episode, we talk about what makes the film so frustrating and Reitman’s recent output. We also talk about Brolin after his Oscar nomination for Milk<\/em>, Winslet between her win for The Reader<\/em> and nomination for Steve Jobs<\/em>, and the 2013 Golden Globes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Topics also include Friendly’s, No Country for Old Men<\/em> supporting performances, and Golden Globe predictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
