Show Notes

Welcome to the new week everyone! In News & Previews this week we chat about changes in DC Universe, the ongoing conflict between Ray Fisher and Warner Bros, and share a fun Marvel cast announcement. We express some hopes for TIFF and the Emmys and share a couple of new streaming suggestions too. Also tied into TIFF was our Retro Rewind review of Almost Famous, as it premiered at TIFF 20 years ago. After a number of less-than-stellar streaming movie reviews, we were pleasantly surprised by both #Alive and I’m Thinking of Ending Things, but listen to the ‘cast for our full spoiler-free rundown.
The main feature of the week though is our interview with award-winning Canadian screenwriter Jennifer Mulligan. She shares her experiences, tells some fun stories, talks TIFF, and dishes on a whole bunch of resources that are available for Ottawa locals who want to get into filmmaking.
Give it, us, and her a listen!
