Bonus Episode: Top 5 Sex & Violence Moment of the 2022 Oscars Movies with Gordon McNulty
On this bonus episode I ask Oscar expert and regular guest Gordon McNulty to discuss this year’s nominated Oscar movies with a focus on sex & violence. We rank our top 5 favorite moments and talk about dog fights, dicks at the ceremony, stealing dead bodies from oneself, joke predictions and German, twice. We don’t talk about To Leslie, Women Talking, Living, Aftersun, Causeway, Glass Onion and not even Tell It Like a Woman, the movie everyone is talking about.
