We\u2019ve got another long anticipated episode this week! In 2019, Natalie Portman teamed up with\u00a0Fargo\u00a0<\/i>creator Noah Hawley to bring to the screen a highly fictionalized account of a NASA astronaut who suffered a psychotic break and stalked her lover and co-worker across the country. The more salacious details (namely the urban legend diaper that she wore to prevent stopping her car) were ommitted and a ceaseless slew of aspect ratio shifts were added, resulting in a film that critics and audiences immediately dismissed.<\/p>\n
But the film was dead on arrival not only because of its quality, it also released in the immediate takeover of Fox and Fox Searchlight by Disney\u2019s acquisition. With little effort put behind the film, it was gone from theatres faster than jokes could be made about it. This episode, we talk discuss Portman\u2019s boldness as a performer and look back at her previous episodes as she joins our 6 Timers Club! We also discuss Hawley\u2019s flat approach to material, Jon Hamm\u2019s lack of charisma in his movie roles, and Ellen Burstyn talking about\u00a0\u201castronaut dick.\u201d<\/p>\n
Topics also include the 4DX Experience, the film\u2019s late TIFF premiere burief at the end of the festival, and the still unawarded Saturn Awards.<\/p>\n
