Great podcast as usual and on a totally unrelated note I just read that Glenn Close has been cast in Hillbilly Elegy opposite Amy Adams and my head just exploded.

100% with y'all on Diane, which is a film I'm almost as keen to revisit as Us and Gloria Bell. It's so quietly impressive with a lot of stuff I can imagine other movies handling really badly, even as it experiments with its structure, and the cast is uniformly strong. Deirdre O'Connell, Estelle Parsons, Andrea Martin, Jake Lacey, Mary Kay Place, all lovely. See it!
