Dreamgirls (2006)
With Jennifer Hudson and Anika Noni Rose in the cast, this is easily one of the Men's favorite episodes. Eddie Murphy shines as he never has before and Beyonce is Beyonce, for all the good and bad that portends.

The Thing With Two Heads (1972)
The Thing With Two Heads didn't have to be the mess that it proves to be but at least it gives the Men of Micheaux an opportunity to highlight the career of Ray Milland and the under appreciated Don Marshall.

Customer Reviews
Movies All the Way Down
This is an excellent movie discusison podcast. I especially appreciate that their opinions on films will sometimes surprise you. Example: I did not expect them to love Django Unchained, and yet my expectations were shattered by their honest and passionate examination of the film's themes and its relationship to the black community. This is really good stuff, folks, and you should be listening.
LOVE what you guys are undertaking
Big fan of the host rapport, sometimes left field observations, and commitment to the premise of the show. I always leave an episode with much insight and tons of surprises. Thanks for all your work on something that is not covered in much of cinema discussion, let alone in the pod world.
A podcast for all types of movie goers.
I have been listening to your podcast for a few months now and let me say how much joy I have found in it. I appreciate the level of respect to give to good movies and bad movies not playing favorites. I would suggest all new comers to list to the Acrimony episode to fill the passion you have for movies and to get a deep belly laugh. You reference Daughter’s of the Dust so much I am
Currently watching it now. You reminded me why I love certain movies, validated why I thought certain moves were bad and I could put my finger on why, and made me hold strong to the movies I love and you didn’t (Under the cherry moon) even if for nostalgia sake. Keep up the excellent work.
