A fascinating failure of a movie that made for a spirited conversation!
Today we’re talking about the 2009 musical romance Moonlight Serenade with special guest Jesse Knight.

Plus: when bad lighting becomes Lynchian, the Harriet Sansom Harris fan club, and the problem with Amy’s crisp enunciation.

It's a commonly accepted assumption that Julie Powell's half of Julie & Julia pales in comparison to Julia Child's half.

But @joereid.bsky.social is here to commence what we've coined the Actually Julie Powell's Part of Julie & Julia is Good Project.

We had the best time talking Nora Ephron with @joereid.bsky.social. Hope it’s as much fun to listen to.

(And apologies for my slightly janky audio!)
Today we’re talking about the 2009 dramedy Julie & Julia with special guest @joereid.bsky.social.

Plus: how to poach an egg, Stanley Tucci being our gayest straight man, and the role Amy could have stolen from Jason Derulo.

Next week! Showed a lot of restraint in this episode by not doing the full butter monologue.

It's low-key wild that Amy Adams invented wearing pants (jodhpurs, if you're nasty) in the year 2009.

@electrolemon.bsky.social joins us this week to discuss why Amy's performance as Amelia Earhart is perhaps the definitive portrayal of the aviation pioneer.

I’m just really glad I got to talk about one of my personal obsessions, the decades-long careers of capuchin actors.
Today we’re talking about the 2009 comedy Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian with special guest @electrolemon.bsky.social.

Plus: Crystal the Monkey’s filmography, questioning the Teen Choice Awards, and Amy’s tight jodhpurs.

In another life, Sister James and Sister Aloysius could have worshiped the Lord and snacked on communion wafer together 🥺

But that's not how it does down.

It is very hard for me to take in characters doing distinctive accents without (poorly) mimicking them, so the fact that I didn't do this whole podcast trying to replicate Meryl Streep's Bronx nun voice is a personal achievement. Amy Adams holds her own, which was my goal with Dane and Louis.
Today we’re talking about the 2008 drama Doubt with special guest @dreaclark.bsky.social.

Plus: the horror of Dutch angles, the moment Amy became offer-only, and Kirk Douglas shilling for Casa Zeta-Jones.

This was fun to listen to because a. It's one of my favorite movies and b. My friend once said "The ambiguity is central to the play. In the movie, once you've cast Philip Seymour Hoffman--you know he did it. No one's doubting it." and I think about it every time I watch it.
