Happy Black History Month! In this episode, Shelby and Laura review Cord Jefferson's critically acclaimed feature directorial debut, American Fiction. Spoiler alert -- we're big fans of this satirical family drama film.
We discuss how the film is smart, witty, and surprisingly emotional, gush over the stacked ensemble cast, except Sterling K. Brown's over-the-top performance as Cliff, dive into the themes of racism and capitalism, highlight our favorite moments, including Monk pretending to be Stagg R Leigh at lunch with Wiley, and debate whether lying for likes is a red flag.
Interested in more critically acclaimed movie reviews? We have reviewed many awards favorites. Check out our podcast episodes on Barbie, Killers of the Flower Moon, Oppenheimer, Past Lives, and Poor Things.
