Is the Julie half really all that bad? Is Chris Messina so hot it excuses his rude behavior? Does this movie hit different in a Substack's America? We get into all of it, plus a lot of Adam and Streep talk, with food reporter Madeline Wells! Read Madeline's reporting at SF Gate here. Film Fest is brought to you by wig...
