Smackdown '97: Julianne, Minnie, Gloria, Joan, and Kim Basinger

The Film Experience
The Supporting Actress Smackdown hits the landmark year of 1997, now 25 years in the rearview mirror if you can believe it. We welcome back all-star guests of the past: comedian Louis Virtel (Keep It!, Jimmy Kimmel Live), journalist and author Kyle Buchanan (The New York Times, "Blood, Sweat & Chrome: The Wild and True Story of Mad Max: Fury Road" ) and podcaster Chelsea Eichholz (Cinema Gals). We're discussing the Titanic phenomenon, the huge hit Good Will Hunting, In & Out's gay comedy and Oscar-specific plotline, and critical darlings LA Confidential and Boogie Nights.  And of course we're talking the careers and performances of Kim Basinger, Joan Cusack, Minnie Driver, Julianne Moore, and Gloria Stuart.
