Spoilerpiece Theatre 324: Kajillionaire

In Episode 324 of my podcast Spoilerpiece Theatre, we review Residue, Ottolenghi and The Cakes of Versailles, The Devil All the Time, and Kajillionaire. An old feminine hygiene commercial inspires a new band name before the movies this week. Megan and Evan lead with Residue (2:48), a compelling commentary on racism and gentrification. Next, everyone discusses Ottolenghi and The Cakes of Versailles (15;18), a food documentary about a special project for The MET. Then they review The Devil All the Time (29:23), a Netflix crime drama with Tom Holland. Lastly, they cover Miranda July’s Kajillionaire (47:08), starring Evan Rachel Wood and Gina Rodriguez. In this week’s Patreon bonus audio, we review a Patron’s selection, John Carpenter’s 1995 horror film In the Mouth of Madness.

Evan Crean: Hello! My name is Evan Crean. By day I work for a marketing agency, but by night, I’m a film critic based in Boston, MA. Since 2009, I have written hundreds of movie reviews and celebrity interviews for Starpulse.com. I have also contributed pieces to NewEnglandFilm.com and to The Independent, as a writer and editor. I maintain an active Letterboxd account too. In addition to publishing short form work, I am a co-author of the book Your ’80s Movie Guide to Better Living, which is available on CreateSpace and Amazon. The book is the first in a series of lighthearted self-help books for film fans, which distills advice from ’80s movies on how to tackle many of life’s challenges. On top of writing, I co-host and edit the weekly film podcast Spoilerpiece Theatre with two other Boston film critics. I’m a founding member and the current treasurer for the Boston Online Film Critics Association as well. This site, Reel Recon.com, is a one-stop-shop where you can find links to all of my past and present work. Have any questions or comments after checking it out?
