Hi, I'm Dana Stevens, Slate's movie critic, here with the Slate Spoiler Special podcast on Salt, the new thriller with Angelina Jolie.

Joining me in the New York studio is Lizzie Skernick. Hello, Lizzie.

Hi.

Who is writer, blogger, person, extraordinaire. Do you want to talk about your current project?

Oh, yeah. Well, I just want to say Old Hag, my cultural blog, is about to reopen with a new design and some new series.

Oh, that's great.

I can't wait to take a look at it.

Wait, so give you a URL to those.

The URL is very important, and it's theoldhag.com.

Oh, right, because if you go to oldhag.com, it takes you to some disturbing.

I never check anymore, but I see it.

Sort of fetish website? Okay. So you heard it here, guys. You've

got two new websites to visit now. So Lizzie, you and I saw salt together last night. Just your

quick overall reaction. Recommended, not? Definitely recommended. You know, it was, it was coherent. And I think

it put us both in a better mood, which was very impressive.

Yeah, it's true.

I mean, I had sort of heard good things about this movie, but I guess a late summer action thriller, it didn't sound that appealing except for one element, Angelina Jolie, who I think, I guess you don't love her as an actress as much as I do.

I sort of keep surprising myself by liking her in almost everything.

She just lost me at Gia because she just wasn't.

That was pretty early.

It was like the mid-80s.

I'm just much more.
