About this episode

The hosts discuss the film 'Mud' and its themes, performances, and connection to the McConaissance.

This week, the boys get all Tom & Huck and head to the Mississippi River to discuss Jeff Nichols’ “Mud”. The random year generator spun 2013, and we decided to follow up our recent “Take Shelter” episode to see how Nichols handled the McConaissance. What we didn’t expect was finding some of the best youth performances ever by Tye Sheridan and Jacob Lofland in a Stand-By-Me-Meets-Huckleberry-Finn narrative. We were a little split on our overall takeaways, but boy did we appreciate the journey. linktr.ee/theloveofcinema - Check out our YouTube page! Our phone number is 646-484-9298.
