We continue our series going through the entire catalog of A24's films. On this episode we are looking at 2014's The Rover directed by David Michôd. The film stars Guy Pearce as a man tracking down a group of thieves that stole his car in post apocalyptic Australia. He finds Robert Pattinson, the brother of one of the thieves left for dead and uses him to find the group. Joining the show is Matthew Simpson, the host of the Awesome Friday podcast who was last heard on the show back on episode 200: Movies That Made Us. 
Our double bill pairings include Personal Shopper (Dakota), Life (Rachel) and The Proposition (Matthew).
