This week on The First Run, Chris and Matt finally catch up with Ari Aster’s ‘Beau Is Afraid’.  It’s a sprawling tale of one man’s journey to visit his mother, with all the accompanying insanity, violence, humor, and just a dusting of an Elektra Complex, all led my Joaquin Phoenix. Clocking in at a meager 3 hours, is it the (Insert genre here) we’ve been waiting for? Or a bloated mess? Then as ‘The Pope’s Exorcist’ mania is sweeping the country, we discuss ‘The Pope’s Exorcist’. It’s the number 1 movie on Netflix and DEMANDS to be seen and discussed, guaranteed to have a legacy lasting generations. Or not.  There’s the truly loving rundown of the big releases on Physical Media, featuring the Streaming and Straight to DVD Picks of the Week.  Then Matt and Chris wrap up the show with a round of the fill-in-the-blank game, TFR Libs.  This round features Dune 2, Highlander, and more! The power of Moms compels you to listen to the latest episode of The First Run! Note: Chris and Matt forget about Killers Of The Flower Moon & Poor Things when discussing the remaining 2023 releases like a couple of dummies.00:00-12:26: Intro/Beau Is Afraid12:27-19:49: Physical Media Picks19:50-29:13: The Pope’s Exorcist29:14-49:13: TFR Libs49:14-50:36: Wrap Up Theme music by Jamal Malachi Ford-Bey
