S1 E26: "Bewitched" (#40) - with Katie Conaglen!
Description
No one in our recent scheduling chaos has been bounced around more than Katie Conaglen but we’re so glad we finally got to record because she is absolutely essential to picking through the befuddling wreckage that is Nora Ephron’s BEWITCHED, an adaptation of the 60s sitcom seemingly no one wanted to make and no one had a good angle on, but what they eventually settle on is a BAFFLING misfire and you’ve gotta hear this amazing conversation with Katie!
We discuss the bizarre oil-and-water pairing of Nicole Kidman and Will Ferrell, made worse by nonsensical character motivations, scattershot plotting and a wavering tone that makes you ask “what emotion am I even supposed to be feeling right now?”
This movie is the kind of forgotten detritus that this show is made for, and Katie is an amazing guest, check it out!
