Summary

Indie distributor A24 started memorably, if modestly, back in 2012 and 2013, with titles like Harmony Korine's "Spring Breakers" and Sofia Coppola's "The Bling Ring." Within the next couple of years, they'd launched the directing careers of Alex Garland ("Ex Machina") and Robert Eggers ("The Witch"). Then in 2016, they went ahead and - very memorably - won the Oscar for Best Picture with Barry Jenkins' "Moonlight." And they haven't slowed down since. David Lowery's "A Ghost Story," Greta Gerwig's "Lady Bird," Sean Baker's "The Florida Project," and Ari Aster's "Hereditary" are just a fraction of the acclaimed titles released by the company in its first ten years. To celebrate the occasion, Adam and Josh hold the debut Filmspotting Draft: ten A24 titles each, no shared picks, no trades, no fighting. Listen and then cast a vote for who built the better roster.
