Episode 7 - Swiss Army Man (2016)
And we’re back! This episode is a love letter to the directors (aka the Daniels), some of our favorite actors, and a brilliant movie. When Hank suddenly becomes stranded and finds a magical corpse (Manny), he embarks on a journey that will not only determine his ability to return home, but surprisingly, his ongoing battle of self-perception and the idea of being loved. Starring Daniel Radcliffe, Paul Dano, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead in comedic yet dramatic performances. This movie was the directorial debut of the Daniels, and premiered at the Sundance Film Festival before being picked up for distribution by A24.
