Show Notes

While Shelby was having a baby, Matt was watching Netflix’s new David Fincher film *Mank*. He’s joined by Josh Troutman, old Hollywood film buff and Orson Welles fangirl, to break down the new black-and-white Oscar bait. But first they discuss Amanda Seyfried’s Catskills home (4:40) and Felicity Huffman’s new sitcom (10:43). Since *Mank* turned out to be largely unintelligible to anyone without a PhD in cinema history, Matt and Josh dish out a primer on William Randolph Hearst, *Citizen Kane*, and MGM (14:44) before diving into the new Gary Oldman vehicle (41:59). For Love It or Hate It (1:09:39), Josh fawns over *Euphoria* and Matt complains about *Ready Player Two*.
