Summary

THIS IS A PREVIEW PODCAST. NOT THE FULL REVIEW. Please check out the full review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture As previously announced, we are diving back into the year 2016 with a few missing podcast reviews which we did not complete the year the site launched. This will culminate in NBP Film Community Awards and awards voted on by the staff towards the end of October. Next up is our review of the Coen Brothers' look back on 1950s Hollywood with "Hail, Caesar!" starring Josh Brolin, George Clooney, Alden Ehrenreich, Ralph Fiennes, Jonah Hill, Scarlett Johansson, Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton & Channing Tatum. A screwball comedy with religious symbolism and many memorable scenes, how does it all come together for the Next Best Picture team? Joining me to discuss I have Nicole Ackman, Michael Schwartz, Josh Parham, Dan Bayer, Ryan C. Showers & Patreon guest Paul Meredith. Take a listen below and let us know what you think. Also check out our previous 2016 reviews of "20th Century Women," "Paterson" & "Captain Fantastic." Thanks! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
