At the time of its release, this was considered a progressive LBGT film that went mainstream with not just critics but with the Academy (and was a box office hit relative to its budget); how does the film hold up today fourteen years later? Tune in as I, Josh Parham, Dan Bayer & Patreon guest Jack Greenwood discuss our thoughts on the writing, performances, its awards season run, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.

Filmmaker Moritz Mohr was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about his directorial debut, which had a proof of concept so wild and imaginative it managed to bring Sam Raimi on board as a producer, and Bill Skarsgård, Jessica Rothe, Michelle Dockery, Famke Janssen, Sharlto Copley, Brett Gelman, Isaiah Mustafa, and Andrew Koji to star. Please be sure to check out the film, which will be released this weekend in theaters from Lionsgate and Roadside Attractions.
