"Digger," "Verity," "Fjord" Oct 05, 2026

Show notes

We apologize in advance: We had a very long show! But we had a lot to dig into. We start with Tom Cruise's "Digger," which, whatever you think about it, certainly provides plenty to chew on. Then it's Anne Hathaway and Dakota Johnson in "Verity." And we close with Cristian Mungiu's "Fjord," with Sebastian Stan and Renate Reinsve. Those are some big movies that gave us bunches to talk about.
