Episode 83: 2019 with Noel Murray
A podcast about the great movie years.
Film critic and O.G. AV Club member Noel Murray does not usually suffer from recency bias, but he thought it would be fun to glance back just five years to 2019, which gave us the hang-out pleasures of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, the stinging commentary of Parasite, and the shocks and thrills of Us.
Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast, Google Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is streaming on Hulu and Fobu, and is available for digital rental or purchase. (And here is that rundown of the best Tarantino scenes that Noel mentioned!) Parasite is streaming on Max and is available for digital rental or purchase, and it has a very good Blu-ray from Criterion.
Us is available for digital rental or purchase; here is the Hands Across America piece that Jason mentioned, as well as his dive into the movie’s many pop culture references. Marriage Story is streaming on Netflix, of course or you can pick up the Criterion Blu-ray.
And Portrait of a Lady on Fire is on Hulu and Kanopy, is available for digital rental or purchase, and it too has a Criterion Blu-ray.
