Listen ""Can Mel Get His Groove Back?" (Episode 5)"
Episode Synopsis
Indiewire's chief film critic Eric Kohn talks with Thompson on Hollywood's Anne Thompson about the world of film festivals and new releases of all shapes and sizes. In this week's episode, the pair discuss Mel Gibson's current options as a filmmaker along with the surprisingly great "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes," and why star Andy Serkis probably won't get an Oscar nomination for his performance as monkey leader Caesar. They also delve into the notoriously secretive marketplace for video-on-demand releases and conclude with a special plea that people go see "Boyhood," though Anne is certain most listeners were going to do that, anyway.
