Done in true conversational style with added interviews and additional guest reviewers.
Mildred Pierce
I thought the phrase “the left destroys everything it touches” was a right wing talking point. Apparently not. These nitwits cannot even discuss a noir classic without interjecting 21st century context. Tiresome and boring. The woman says watching Butterfly McQueen play a maid is cringe. And yet…she never mentions Butterfly McQueen is not listed in the opening credits…to me that is true injustice. Also, no one on the panel had seen the remake with Kate Winslet. They are so dumb, they are not even smart enough to know how dumb they are…
