2 Cents Critic Arthur Howell

Tune in as 2CC launches Pride Month and dives into queer art throughout June! For this first episode, Dustin Holden (Dustin Can Read & Watch, The Rewatch Recap) retakes his comfy old guest seat for a review and recap of Fire Island, the 2022 Hulu rom-com that unfolds into a modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice. Talking points for this episode include bigotry within the queer community, missing the chance to sue restaurants that are liable for your injuries, and briefly pretending to be a stranger’s partner.



Directed by Andrew Ahn, Fire Island stars Joel Kim Booster, Bowen Yang, Conrad Ricamora, Margaret Cho, James Scully, Matt Rogers, Tómas Matos, Torian Miller, Nick Adams, Zane Phillips, Michael Graceffa, Aidan Wharton, Peter Smith, and Peppermint.

Tune in as the Rebecca Hall of Fame comes to a close with its fifth and final episode of May! It’s been such a great journey to explore her filmography throughout the month, and the conclusion shall arrive via Arthur’s friend Jared returning to 2CC for a deep dive into The Night House, the 2020 horror movie that cleverly uses negative space to deliver some paranormal and psychological chills. Jared’s pitch for a horror remake of Fifty Shades of Grey with a BDSM demon, Arthur’s recommendation of a song from the boring and uncomfy Sydney Sweeney movie Clementine, and a discussion about the debatable existence of an afterlife comprise just a few of the talking points for this last episode of May.



Directed by David Bruckner, The Night House stars Rebecca Hall, Sarah Goldberg, Vondie Curtis-Hall, Evan Jonigkeit, and Stacy Martin.

Tune in as the Rebecca Hall of Fame dishes out its fourth episode of the month! Clayton Jones II and Shawn Murphy (Men Who Like Men Who Like Movies Podcast) are retaking their guest seats for a breakdown of The Prestige. Adapted from the Christopher Priest novel of the same name, this 2006 mystery-thriller follows the increasingly hostile and obsessive rivalry between a pair of talented stage magicians in 1890s London. Talking points for this episode include nitpicking the movie’s unrealistic depiction of drowning, Clayton’s distaste for The Illusionist, and the hosts’ favorite Michael Caine roles in a Christopher Nolan movie.



Directed by Christopher Nolan, The Prestige stars Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman, Rebecca Hall, Scarlett Johansson, Michael Caine, David Bowie, Andy Serkis, Piper Perabo, Samantha Mahurin, Roger Rees, Jim Piddock, William Morgan Sheppard, Ricky Jay, Chao Li Chi, and Edward Hibbert.

Tune in as the Rebecca Hall of Fame advances forward for the third episode of this theme month! Arthur’s pals Connor Kujawinski and Robyn Zabukovec make yet another reappearance on the show for a review and recap of Resurrection, the 2022 psychological horror film that draws us into a businesswoman’s life as she’s forced to confront the toxic and gaslighting ways of an ex who’s made his unwelcome return to her world. Mistaking strands of hair for a coffee stain, the bizarre and campy work of John Waters, and Resurrection’s ambiguous ending that leaves some viewers feeling ambivalent comprise just a few of the subjects that the hosts go through on this episode.



Written and directed by Andrew Semans, Resurrection stars Rebecca Hall, Tim Roth, Grace Kaufman, Michael Esper, and Angela Wong Carbone.

Tune in as the Rebecca Hall of Fame rolls onward this month with its second episode! This time around, Arthur’s buddy Noah hops onboard for a discussion on Godzilla vs. Kong, the 2021 sequel to Godzilla: King of the Monsters and the fourth entry in the Monsterverse. Running through the various movies on which GVK cinematographer Ben Seresin has worked, arching an eyebrow at the casually positive lens that this movie aims at conspiracy theories, and praising all the gorgeous lighting (especially in the neon-lit Hong Kong brawl) make up a few of the topics that this episode covers.



Directed by Adam Wingard, Godzilla vs. Kong stars Rebecca Hall, Alexander Skarsgård, Kaylee Hottle, Brian Tyree Henry, Millie Bobby Brown, Julian Dennison, Demián Bichir, Eiza González, Shun Oguri, Kyle Chandler, Lance Reddick, Hakeem Kae-Kazim, and Ronny Chieng.

Tune in as this show kicks off a new theme month for all of May: the Rebecca Hall of Fame! For this first podcast of the month to honor one of Arthur’s all-time favorite actors, Joe Lipsett (Horror Queers, Hazel & Katniss & Harry & Starr) is returning to the guest chair for a breakdown of Red Riding: The Year of Our Lord 1974, the 2009 period crime drama-thriller that stands as the first film entry in a limited series made for British television called the Red Riding Trilogy. The bleak and nihilistic territory that this series boldly treads into, the surprising amount of homoerotic undertones in 1974, and some gripes with a divisive little filmmaker known as Zack Snyder comprise just a few of the talking points for this episode.



Directed by Julian Jarrold, Red Riding: The Year of Our Lord 1974 stars Andrew Garfield, Rebecca Hall, Sean Bean, Warren Clarke, John Henshaw, Anthony Flanagan, Robert Sheehan, Eddie Marsan, Sean Harris, Tony Mooney, Steven Robertson, Cathryn Bradshaw, David Morrissey, Michelle Dockery, Daniel Mays, Peter Mullan, and Mary Jo Randle.
