Dave jokes that it’s Megan’s big week on Spoilerpiece: She saw all three movies on the docket! First, she fills Evan and Dave in on DOCTOR JEKYLL (2:27), Joe Stephenson's gothic horror film starring Eddie Izzard as Dr. Nina Jekyll (good) and Rachel Hyde (bad) in a contemporary update of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic novella The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Then Megan talks about SING SING (14:14), Greg Kwedar's tender and incredibly moving drama starring Colman Domingo and based on the real-life Rehabilitation Through the Arts program at Sing Sing Maximum Security Prison. Megan loved Colman Domingo’s and Paul Raci’s performances, and has heaps of praise for the movie. Finally, everyone saw PEAK SEASON (24:48) Steven Kantner and Henry Loevner's poignant comic drama about the bond a burned-out New Yorker (Claudia Restrepo) makes with her fishing guide (Derrick Joseph DeBlasis) on a trip to Wyoming. We all loved it. Over on Patreon, Evan and Dave talk about Robert Altman’s 3 WOMEN, which stars Shelley Duvall, who left us in early July.
