#259: The Brothers Bloom / Rian Johnson / The Girlfriend Experience / Top 5 Con Movies

FPPLE, Film Podcast seeks Podcast Listener Experience 
You: Must love dog racing, the collected works of Rush, and listening to riveting discussions of Steven Soderbergh's films, including his latest "The Girlfriend Experience," starring adult film star Sasha Grey. Tolerance for gambling debts and raging debates over the merits of the new con film starring Mark Ruffalo, Adrien Brody and Rachel Weisz, "The Brothers Bloom," a must. Long walks on the beach unnecessary, but must have appreciation for interviews with "The Brothers Bloom" writer/director Rian Johnson. Ability to name Top 5 Con Movies of all-time a plus. Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, and Kennedys encouraged to submit headshot, lock of hair, and resume to matty@filmspotting.net.

Also on the show: Massacre Theatre -- presented by In Review Online -- and music by Syd.
