Judas And the Black Messiah is up for Best Picture and two Supporting Actor awards so if you just rewatched it or just watched it for the first time, here’s a throwback to our conversation with the Lucas Bros who talk about the film from inception to screen. This is a great convo for those who’ve seen the film—spoilers abound because we go deep into the story, the nuances, the making of it, and the ending. Should it have had a different ending? We discuss the alternate ending they considered, one I like even better. Patreon.com/toureshow Instagram: @toureshow Twitter: @toure See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
