• 0:21
  Speaker 2: this weekend? Well, it's not just one movie. That's the thing.
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: There's a holdover from last week, but it's expanding. It's
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: called You Can See Everything, which is true at theaters.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: You can really see everything.
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: But this is a documentary from Lance Oppenheim and Nathan Fielder.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys know his work. It's funny. Oh,
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: Nathan's work's good. He's amazing.
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: Sasha Baron Cohen also has a movie opening this weekend.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: No one's going to be able to see it because
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: everyone's going to see Nathan Fielder's film. And he's kind
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: of like, as he called him, his godson, because he's
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: an expert on this undercover comedy genre. And this is
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: a documentary about Elizabeth Holmes, a Silicon Valley inventor who
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: has 34 days left before she goes to prison. And
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: she invites a camera crew into her home so she
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: can tell her own side of the story. And it
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: is absolutely bonkers. It is a wild ride. The movie
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: is three hours long. You will not believe that you
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: will enjoy a documentary that's three hours long until you
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: see this film. I mean, it's just stunning.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: I am hearing from friends of mine who have seen
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: it who think, like, this could actually win Best Picture
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: at the Oscars, that it's that good.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: It will likely be the first documentary ever to get
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: nominated for Best Picture. Wicker is another film I would
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: highly recommend. This is a raunchy, romantic comedy fable. about
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: a fisherwoman many, many years ago in a small little
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: village who is tired of everyone making fun of her
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: because she doesn't have a husband. A very small-minded town.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: And so she goes to Peter Dinklage, who plays a
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: basket weaver. And the fisherwoman is played by Olivia Colman,
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: Oscar winner. And she says, make me a husband out
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: of wicker.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: And he does. And the husband is Alexander Skarsgård, who looks... Amazing.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: He's very tall and beefy and immediately gets to work
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: on making her happy.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: And the third one is Wildwood.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: Now, do you guys know anything about this movie, Laika's
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: latest stop-motion animation film?
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: No. Nothing to do with New Jersey, is it?
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Wildwood, New Jersey, yes.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: No, this is Wildwood, Oregon, pretty much.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: It takes place right outside of Portland where Laika, the
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: animation studios, the guys who brought you Coraline, That's where
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: they're located. It's Travis Knight, the son of Phil Knight,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: the founder of Nike. He started this studio many years ago.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: They've been working on this film for 16 years. It's
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: the longest stop-motion animated film ever, and it's probably the
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: best one ever. It is about a teenage girl who
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: is supposed to watch her little baby brother, kind of
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: like in Labyrinth, if you remember that movie with Jennifer Connelly.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: And, of course, the little baby brother gets kidnapped.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: By a a murder of crows now i love a
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: movie where crows.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: Are the bad guys for me that's like i'm.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: Not a big fan of crows but uh they take
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: them to this impassable wilderness where she has to do
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: battle with this uh queen played by carrie mulligan and
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: the movie is absolutely spectacular but it is not for
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: small kids um common sense media is saying if you're
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: over um 11.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: That's OK.
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: But don't take little kids to see it because it's
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: pretty violent, I must say. And it's pretty dark and scary,
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: but wonderful. And it's from Fathom Entertainment. It is in
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: all theaters across the country. And I hope it does
