On this podcast we talk about the movies and books that we love, what draws us to them, and how they make us think. Each month we focus on one theme and pick two movies per week that fit a variation of that theme. Since this is the Book Lover’s movie club we are also reading a book each month that works with the monthly theme.

    Episode 22 - Q&A and Slumdog Millionaire

    In this episode, Sara and Kim talk about the 2005 novel Q&A, by Vikas Swarup and the 2008 film Slumdog Millionaire, which is adapted from the novel. There are some big feelings this week about the novel and complicated feelings about the film. But what everyone agrees about is that Kim's brain should let her have more fun.

    O Brother, Where Art Thou? and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

    O Brother, Where Art Thou? and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

    In this episode, Kim and Sara dive into some of their favorite films of the early 2000s for a much needed bit of levity. They chat about O Brother, Where Art Thou? from 2000 and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind from 2004 and marvel at how these two films were passed over for best picture Oscar nominations. Utterly absurd!
