End Credits #303 - June 28, 2023 (Polite Society)

This week on End Credits, we have wedding bell blues. Well, not us necessarily, but the heroines of this week's film do. In this episode, we watch a movie that takes us to one of those most ordinary of summer activities, going to a wedding. We're watching Polite Society, a hit from this year's Sundance Film Festival. Also, we've got another Indiana Jones to talk about.

This Wednesday, June 28, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Candice Lepage will discuss:

Run the Series: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. At the end of this week, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny opens in a theatre near you, and it's supposed to be the last Indiana Jones ever. But there was once another last Indiana Jones, and it was fittingly called The Last Crusade. It's got more Nazis, the ultimate MacGuffin in the Holy Grail, and Sean Connery as Indy's dad, and this week we'll take a look back and this fan favourite entry in the series.

REVIEW: Polite Society (2023). June is peak wedding season, so why not end the month with a nice wedding movie? A story about sisters struggling to observe tradition while balancing their modern ambitions, as wannabe stunt woman Ria has to deal with her sister Lena's upcoming wedding to a handsome young doctor. Are Ria's concerns that her big sister is throwing away her life valid, or is there really something sinister afoot on this supposedly happy occasion? The resulting action dramedy redefines what it means to be a wedding crasher, but is it for the best?

End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.
