S1E54: Falling for Little Women, arguing Oscars and Dolittle is too much: Double Feature Ep 54

What are the Oscars thinking? We need answers.

Aside from railing against the Academy Awards' glaring omissions, the Double Feature team of Jonathan Roberts, Cheow Sue-Ann and Joanne Soh review Greta Gerwig's astounding take on Little Women and want to know how a film that good does not warrant for a Best Director nod at the Academy Awards.

This will also prompt another anti-Joker rant from Mr Roberts. He's cheerleading team #anyonebutJoker

And then Joanne Soh explains why Robert Downey Jr's post-Marvel career has got off to a flying thud with Dolittle.

00.35: Little Women reviewed, Greta Gerwig defies the odds with the eighth version of the Louisa Mae Alcott classic. Saoirse Ronan wows us, we finally get why Timothee Chalamet sends the girls swooning – and all without the use of Shawn Mendes.

07.50: What's wrong with the Oscars 2020 nominations plus wishlists and predictions and a rant about why Lorene Scafaria's Hustlers is more deserving of Best Director than Todd Phillips' Joker.

22.10: Last and least, it's the Dolittle review. Less said, the better.

Thanks for listening.
