Some records that were soundtracking their eras and that also went beyond them as you can see from our discussions had some unintended effects. For instance, how to see Oasis now? Sure, they rejuvenated British rock at the time, yet they also unleashed a back to basics approach in the vein of punk that many mistook for the whole recipe. I mean, even Oasis fell for this line of thinking later on despite their Morning Glory, their pinnacle, finding them being the best possible version of themselves thanks to them stretching their own rules. Yes, Oasis were a paradoxical band, since they used their image as the biggest oafs in rock music to hide their rich emotional inner life. Actually, we shouldn't be surprised many got the wrong lessons from them, the image always wins.

252 - Film Stars Don't Die in Liverpool
Ahead of this season's Nyad, we are looking back at the Oscar history of Annette Bening and 2017's Film Stars Don't Die in Liverpool. One year after missing out on a nomination for 20th Century Women, Bening returned with this film, starring as actress Gloria Grahame . Told from the perspective of actor Peter Turner (played by Jamie Bell), the film tells a love story between Turner and the Oscar winner during her final days. The film received a mild festival response and limited release during New Years, with Bening and Bell getting BAFTA nominations, but no such love from Oscar.
This episode, we talk about Bening's four previous Oscar nominations and her notorious dual losses to Hilary Swank. We also discuss actresses who have played Oscar winners, Grahame's Oscar win for The Bad and the Beautiful, and that other Sony Pictures Classics film from 2017 that took its time to expand.
Topics also include Bell's leading man charisma, Bening's potential for Nyad, and the many PG-13 f*cks of The American President.

I love The Acid House (1998) for the beautiful trash it is but I can't for the life of me figure out why the ending was changed from the book?
