Spencer & Belfast / Ep. 182

On Episode 182 of the Always the Critic Podcast, it’s a double feature as we cover Spencer, starring Kristen Stewart, and Kenneth Branagh’s Belfast. 

Rico and Jess head to Sandringam to spend Christmas with the royals, talking about Stewart’s performance as Princess Diana, the abounding metaphors and meta commentary on the true modern tragedy, and the strange musical score. Later in the show, Rico and Jess discuss Belfast, (36:20) including how beautiful, fun, and heartwarming they found the film and lamenting how the film will inevitably be bashed for possibly getting Oscar buzz.
