King Richard/Life as a House (RT 47%)
In which it's better to be a broke Will Smith than a wealthy father to Hayden Christensen.
"Venus and Serena Williams are the names we rightly remember, but KING RICHARD remains fixated on the male bravado that pushed for them to get their names out there in the first place."
Allegra Frank of Slate has no time for male bravado... whereas anyone who has listened to OFF SCREEN DEATH knows that is all this podcast is.
Toxic and potent masculinity.
So much so that for the failed but mostly well reviewed (ignore our chosen splat above) new Will Smith film we turned our podcasting eye to the not so well regarded tale of upper middle class white people with beachfront property in the Kevin Kline starring LIFE AS A HOUSE. The problem?
He is father to Anakin Skywalker. With piercings! Enjoy!
