Ep 160: Blonde (2022)

Both Robs Daniel and Wallis love director Andrew Dominik’s The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. Mr. Wallis thinks it might be in his Top 10 movies of all time, while Mr. Daniel ranks it as his favourite Western. The Robs are also fans of Dominik’s movies Chopper and Killing Them Softly. As it has been 10 years since Killing Them Softly, they were both hotly anticipating the director’s return with the Marilyn Monroe biopic Blonde. But, these gentlemen don’t prefer this Blonde. Ana de Armas is first class, and the film frequently looks amazing. Yet neither of them liked the movie.
