Today on Politics In Movies, Mike and GS do vehicular parkour to escape an angry marine while analyzing the hit 2017 Action Thriller Baby Driver. Written and directed by Edgar Wright, our favorite Pop Culture Ourobouros. Produced by Nira Park, Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner. Starring Ansel Elgort, Kevin Spacey, Lily James, Jon Hamm, Eiza Gonzalez and Jamie Foxx. Also with a bunch of fun cameos by musican/actors like Paul Williams, Flea, Sky Ferreira. We’ve finally covered a Meryl Streep movie. Good joke, Edgar Wright, but It’s Complicated. Ha. Alright, the pun’s out of my system. We go off on many tangents and digressions in this one but we do cover all the political points we picked up on as well as some of the obvious meta ones. We do touch on the controversy of the cancellation of one of the male leads but for more on that, honestly we get into it a lot more on The Resurrection Smoothie episode of The Music Smoothie. Because Al3ph played Debra by Beck. Of course. So listen to that section of that episode for more on that. Or don’t, what we say here is funnier anyway. SPOILERS FOR OF COURSE THIS MOVIE BUT ALSO FIGHT CLUB. Blame Edgar Wright. Contact us at [email protected].
