Show Notes
Megan and Dave are a duo again this week (Evan returns next week!), and they tackle SWEET RELIEF (2:57), a movie being marketed as "mumblegore." Like mumblecore! (Get it?) What did we think? Here's the short version: Could have used a lot more gore and a lot less mumble. And then Megan and Dave move on to SORRY, BABY (23:48), Eva Victor's debut as writer-director. And here's the CliffsNotes on it: Best movie of 2025 thus far. No hyperbole. Both of us were moved to tears more than once. Its performances, pacing, and storytelling are all top-notch, and Victor, while giving a great performance themself, gets superior work from the entire cast. It's not to be missed. Over on Patreon, we talk about our June poll winner, Gregg Araki's MYSTERIOUS SKIN.
