#229: Religulous / Nick and Norah's / Trouble the Water / Top 5 Paul Newman Performances
It's close-out week here on Filmspotting and everything must go! We're giving you three reviews, count 'em three new reviews, all on 2008 films at dealer prices. The lads will give you a polemic free discussion of "Religulous," Bill "Love Him or Hate Him" Maher's new documentary filled with some tough questions on religion's place in today's society. But that's not all! Also this week, Michael Cera and Kat Dennings try to warm Adam's cold, cold heart in "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist," and Matty's heart practically breaks while watching "Trouble the Water, a documentary from Tia Lessin and Carl Deal chronicling a family's experience during Hurricane Katrina. Plus, in honor of the late great Paul Newman, we offer up our Top 5 Paul Newman Performances.
Also on the show: Listener Feedback, Massacre Theatre and music by National Beekeeper's Society.
