Summary

THIS IS A PREVIEW PODCAST. NOT THE FULL REVIEW. Please check out the full podcast review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture Before the Oscar-winning "Everything Everywhere All At Once," Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert's feature directorial debut "Swiss Army Man" polarized audiences during its world premiere at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival. The directing duo would go on to win the Best Director prize from the festival, and the film would play in art house theaters, flying under the radar until their successful follow-up film last year. Revisiting the farting corpse buddy comedy movie with me is Josh Parham, Alyssa Christian, and guest Cole Jaeger ("The Oscar Expert"). Please take a listen down below as we discuss the film's themes, performances from Paul Dano and Daniel Radcliffe, the music, and more. Thank you so much, and enjoy!
