"The Mule," "If Beale Street Could Talk," "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse"

Dec 17, 2018

We've come to nearly the end of this movie year, and we've got three huge releases to discuss ... and that doesn't even include "Vice," which we can't get to until tomorrow.

First, it's Clint Eastwood directing himself for the first time in a decade -- with Bradley Cooper! -- in "The Mule." Then, Barry Jenkins follows up "Moonlight" with the James Baldwin adaptation "If Beale Street Could Talk." And then there's the animated, wild spinoff "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse." We're so close now.

Thanks to Dylan Mayer and My Friend Mary, both of which are wonderful, for the music.

We hope you enjoy. Let us know what you think @griersonleitch on Twitter, or [e-mail]. As always, give us a review on iTunes with the name of a movie you'd like us to review, and we'll discuss it on a later podcast.
