Faye Dunaway, Part II
Oct 12, 202402:30:00Tap to summarizeThe Year of Redux carries on apace as The Brothers Wilson revisit the career of Faye Dunaway. Rather than look at the decline of her career, Ian and Pandy choose instead to review why she was such a star in the first place by considering her New Hollywood breakthrough role within Bonnie and Clyde, her rubbing shoulders with the biggest British stars of the 1970s in the comedic retelling of The Three Musketeers and The Four Musketeers: Milady's Revenge, and her starring role opposite Jack Nicholson in the famed detective noir flick Chinatown. Amongst the serious critical reviews for which the podcast is famous, this episode also boasts cameos from Pandy's children, recalls Ian's favorite memories of watching the films in question, and delves into Thai wedding celebrations!

May 28, 2015Tap to summarizeTaking up the challenge of covering an actor who the hosts were not particular fans of, The Brothers Wilson devote this month's episode of Hey, an Actor! to Winona Ryder. Bram Stoker's Dracula prompts a 40-minute discussion about what problems the gothic novel adaptation has besides Keanu Reeves' accent. Elsewhere, autobiographical drama Girl, Interrupted inspires a future episode of the podcast based upon the actress who sealed an Oscar win for her performance. Whilst cult classic Heathers is controversially lambasted by one of the hosts. The episode also contains an inspired Pandy Parody, some rats, and the odd mention of the podcast's recent Parsec Award nomination.
