'After The Hunt', 'Black Phone 2', 'Ballad Of A Small Player' + Zara Hedderman on 'Something's Gotta Give'

We did it, Joe.

Well, sort of. The bathroom renovations are still ongoing. But! We've managed to get a couple of hours free of hammers and noise to bring in Zara Hedderman, music journalist and creator of The Bad Arts on Substack, who has picked 'Something's Gotta Give', the romantic comedy starring the late, great Diane Keaton. No joke, folks - she picked this three weeks ago.

Elsewhere, we're discussing Cancel Culture (boring) and Luca Guadagnino's 'After The Hunt' with Julia Roberts and Ayo Edebiri, Ethan Hawke returns for 'Black Phone 2', Colin Farrell does a Fast Show character in 'Ballad Of A Small Player' and brief musings on Aziz Ansari at the Riyadh Comedy Festival mixed with a review of 'Good Fortune', featuring the best casting of the past five years in Keanu Reeves as a well-meaning but slightly dim guardian angel.
