Penny Marshall\u2019s passing last year reminded us of how unfortunately she never got her due as a respected director. Never was that more clear than the critical drubbing that was met with 2001\u2032s Riding in Cars With Boys<\/i>. On paper this one looked to capitalize on Drew Barrymore\u2019s post Charlie\u2019s Angels success and Penny\u2019s previous history of missing out on directing nominations for respected films – but the immediate cultural fallout from 9\/11 did not meet this film kindly.<\/p>\n

This week, writer for Saturday Night Live<\/i> and cohost of Las Culturistas Bowen Yang joins us to discuss Penny\u2019s legacy and how Riding in Cars With Boys<\/i> is underrated canon. We look at Drew Barrymore\u2019s second coming (including her brilliant opening performance for Scream<\/i>), cherish Brittany Murphy\u2019s comedic gifts, and stolen glances with Lucy Liu. And we briefly return to that most formative of Oscar years when Titanic<\/em> reigned supreme.<\/p>\n
