They Remade It: The Movie Comparison Podcast

It's back to the earlier days of cinema in this episode as Stuart and Jacob tackle What Price Hollywood? (1932) and its brother from the same script, A Star is Born (1937). As the discussion unfurls, they try to rationalize why both films have clarity problems, with both having convoluted story elements, as well as whether or not condensing characters in a remake is worthwhile or not. This episode also features The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, some beautiful (and occasionally confusing) editing, discussion on how impactful even fleeting comic relief can be, and Lionel Stander playing a complete prick.
