"Selma" Apr 09, 2020

Show notes

THIS IS A PREVIEW PODCAST. NOT THE FULL REVIEW. Please check out the full review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture Last year, we did a podcast series on the year 2015 (the year before NBP launched) which was met with an ecstatic response from all of you. So now, we are officially back with our first of many podcast reviews from the year 2014 as we highlight the films that were up for Academy Awards. First up is Ava DuVernay's third feature length film "Selma." Nominated for two Academy Awards (Best Picture and winning for Best Original Song), the film has been unfairly underrated for all of these years. Myself, Nicole Ackman, Josh Parham, Dan Bayer & guest Sharronda Williams (from Pay or Wait) discuss the film's awards run, its performances from its sprawling cast, the historical accuracy, what its powerful true story still means to us today and more. We hope that you will take the time to revisit this greatly under appreciated and highly regarded film. Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...

Show notes

For this week's main podcast review, I am joined by Bianca Garner & Dan Bayer to discuss Edgar Wright's second feature length film "Shaun Of The Dead." Released in 2004 to stellar reviews, this horror comedy introduced the world to the dynamic on-screen duo of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, kickstarting what would become known as the Cornetto Trilogy (Also consisting of "Hot Fuzz" & "The World's End"). Hailed for its humor, satire and zombie action, the NBP Team watched this highly enjoyable film in the middle of our very own pandemic. What did we think? Tune in to find out.
