The Hole in the Wall Gang’s all here – talking ballerina movies, gargoyle faces, Liza Minnelli, and clicker games (amongst other topics!). We also talk about the first rounds of odds that came out for the 2019 Oscars – it’s somehow that time already. We ask the probing questions… like… Who is Richard E. Grant and why is he looking in your window right now??

Chris assigns the homework of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and the entire group is around to discuss it! We finish up talking about the career of the recently retired Robert Redford. Redford left his mark on cinema with roles in movies like The Sting and The Natural and behind the camera in films such as the Oscar-winning Ordinary People. But he also directed The Legend of Bagger Vance so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

David, TJ, and Brent discuss David Lynch’s 2001 film Mulholland Dr., putting it through The Gauntlet® to see if it deserves inclusion into the hallowed halls of the Talk of Fame. What do you think? Do the mindbending plot turns, ominous moods, and trademark Lynchian weirdness work? Or does this movie have too much going on for its own good?
