Episode 313: Movie News, Call Jane, Stars at Noon

It’s sort of a low-key week around here as we wait for Black Panther to return on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso review “Call Jane,” about the underground group that helped women secure safe abortions in 1968 Chicago, starring a terrific Elizabeth Banks and Sigourney Weaver. We also catch up with the toxic romance “Stars at Noon,” the latest from master French filmmaker Claire Denis, which is now streaming on Hulu. In news, we discuss Elon Musk buying Twitter, the “Wakanda Forever” premiere (and keep an eye out for our YouTube livestream discussion on Nov. 12), the weird Matthew Perry-Keanu Reeves beef, James Gunn taking over DC Studios and more. And over at our Patreon, recaps of this week’s excellent episodes of “Andor” and “The Handmaid’s Tale.” Thanks as always for hanging out, and save some Halloween candy for us.
