Come one come all and check out our newest pod! Today Matt and Mike chat about another Best Picture nominee for this year’s Academy Awards, Nightmare Alley directed by Guillermo del Toro. Not carny related topics include Aldi, Sons of Anarchy, and hot tubs.
Nightmare Alley is a beautiful period piece from about 1941 based on a carny that takes the big city by storm as a mentalist. There are a ton of incredible actors in this film from Bradley Cooper to Ron Pearlman to Toni Collette and they all do an incredible job telling this story. The only thing that overshadows the acting is the cinematography. This film is dark, mysterious, and dingy but holy cow is it beautiful! The cinematography in Nightmare Alley rivals other Best Picture nominee Dune and that is really saying a lot. Mike and Matt both agree this is a great must watch film especially since it is currently streaming on HBO Max. They both award the film 4 out of 5 Reels.
Next week we might be a few days late with Episode #262. Matt is heading out of town for work. Don’t fret we are still going to review the new DC film The Batman starring Robert Pattinson and Zoe Kravitz. Chat at you next week!
