Ad Astra‘s character study of an astronaut (Brad Pitt) with daddy issues or Joker‘s character study of a troubled clown (Joaquin Phoenix) with daddy issues. Hosts Alan & Chris share their thoughts on both films and which one they found more compelling (and which one almost put one host to sleep).

A news segment focusing on the winners of the 2019 Footcandle Film Festival along with recommendations of films to watch rounds out the show.

Recommendations: “The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then the Bigfoot“, “Mean Streets“
