Summary

Please check out the full podcast review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture Our 2010 retrospective is continuing with Derek Cianfrance's devastating, emotional relationship drama, "Blue Valentine," starring Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling.

Please tune in and listen to Ema Sasic, Nadia Dalimonte, Alyssa Christian, and me discuss our thoughts on the writing, performances, editing, direction, its awards season run, controversial initial NC-17 rating, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.
