    Let's Press Play: The Man in the Iron Mask

    All for one, and one for all - and absolutely everyone for a young 90s Leo! This week we're discussing the 1998 adventure The Man in the Iron Mask, which takes us back to 1700s France, where King Louis is being less than noble. *** On the verge of bankruptcy, with its people starving in the streets, France is preparing for war that no one (except the King) wants. How do you stop a king? You grab your besties, put your lives in danger, and rescue a stranger from a dungeon. Duh! The Musketeer (yes, those ones) hatch a plan to free a prisoner who has been locked in an iron mask for years... his face hidden... because some say he just might have the face of a king. #PressPlay with us as MacK takes us through a 90s childhood classic of hers that lives in infamy, if for nothing else, for one Sir Gerard Depardieu... Feature Details: The Man in the Iron Mask (1998) Written & Directed by: Randall Wallace Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Jeremy Irons, John Malkovich, Gerard Depardieu, and Gabriel Byrne. Streaming: YouTube (free with ads) or Amazon ($) ** Please note: This movie contains subject matter relating to SA, and our hosts engage in a brief discussion regarding the scene and consent.

    Let's Press Play: The Strangers

    As we approach the end to a week full of Valentine's and truest love, we would like to remind you that love stories... come in many forms. Some love stories involve giant blue diamonds lost at sea, and doors floating in the ocean that absolutely had enough room for two people. Some include secret identities, and the inexplicable power of a costume eye mask to make someone unrecognizable from one day to the next. And some... some are just down right terrifying. Grab your Valentine and press play on the 2008 psychological thriller The Strangers. This is truly was of our favorite episodes, full of big laughs and big questions about why films like this get made... and how can we hold onto hope for a better tomorrow when it seems like all is lost? WHERE IS THE LOVE, PEOPLE? Feature Details: The Strangers (2008) Written & Directed by: Bryan Bertino Starring: Liv Tyler & Scott Speedman Available on: Netflix

    Happy Valentines Day, Press Players! Or Galentines day to our favorite gals, including TayTay's BFF Blake. Without her, we wouldn't have our last 'true love' rough cut! Adaline Bowman's life changed forever on a cold snowy night in 1935. When her heart stops and is restarted by a series of scientific, complicated, way above our high-school-level-chemistry-class knowledge... she becomes immune to the ravages of time. Is that a gift? Or a curse? Katie takes us through one of her favorite movies and tells us a tale of true love worth living for, a love you can only hope to grow old with. Age of Adaline is streaming on Peacock. A Valentine from your LPP Hosts: Whether you're smooching your truest companion or texting your bestie with gratitude, we hope today's celebration of love lands safely in the palm of your hand and holds on tight.
