The episode discusses Matthew McConaughey's vocal performance in the animated film Sing with guest Blake Byles.
Travel Back to the Filmography with the show dedicated to watching every credited film from an actor’s complete Back catalogue from past debut through to present day in chronological order. Each episode, I am joined by an esteemed guest to watch and discuss the next entry from the focused Filmography and consider how it ranks amidst their career and whether we can trace any typecasting trends or topic traits or theatrical tics.
