'The Screen Podcast': Praising Cannes' Hidden Gems

I was back on Screen International's podcast, hosted by the delightful Wendy Mitchell, to discuss three movies that I feel were overlooked at Cannes. (In a separate segment, my colleague Wendy Ide offers three different picks from the festival.) You can check out our recommendations below.

'Masters of the Universe' Review

I wouldn't go so far as to say that I liked Masters of the Universe. But I do think it's trying to do some interesting things, and I appreciated the effort. My review is up at Screen International. 

The Grierson & Leitch Podcast: 'Backrooms,' 'The Breadwinner' and 'Exotica'

I return home from Cannes and immediately watch the worst movie of the year. On the podcast, we talk about The Breadwinner and dig deep into the A24 horror sensation Backrooms. Then, we go back to 1994 to reconsider Exotica and the once-promising career of Atom Egoyan. Check out the latest episode down below.
