Bonus Episode: BlacKkKlansman

August 31st, 2018  |  41 mins 41 secs

As is often the case with Screeners double features, this episode features two movies that could hardly be more different: Spike Lee’s BlacKkKlansman and Crazy Rich Asians. They both have messages; are they equally effective? Let’s ask some white guys!

Episode 107: Crazy Rich Asians

August 22nd, 2018  |  1 hr 9 mins

This summer’s romantic comedy landscape includes a little cultural diversity and some rare themes for the genre, so the Screeners aren’t just going to let Crazy Rich Asians slide by without comment. Is it worthy of all its buzz?
