Also Mike of the award-centric podcast Mike, Mike, and Oscar (@MMandOscar) returns to review MALCOLM AND MARIE, the latest Netflix drama to be put through the Oscar lens before the deadline. Host Andrew Morgan & Mike take you through every detail in the NON-SPOILER section to start (5:06) covering such topics as: how this movie came together during quarantine, how the 30 Million Dollar sale to Netflix changed the conversation, the critical backlash in response to the bashing of film critics within the movie, the comparisons to "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?"/John Cassavetes/Noah Baumbach/"Let Them All Talk", the production values in cinematography & soundtrack, & where they rank as we get to Awards season. Then, they go into the SPOILER section (54:00) to give us their best & worst scenes before they give FINAL GRADES at the end (1:27:30).
From writer/director Sam Levinson ("Euphoria"), MALCOLM AND MARIE is a story of a director (John David Washington) and his girlfriend's (Zendaya) relationship being tested after they return home from his movie premiere and await critics' response.
