TFR Ep. 331: Allied, Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them, 5 Favorite Betrayal Films
Chris Scalzo
Where’s our kiss? This week on The First Run, Matt & Chris watch director Robert Zemeckis’s ‘Allied’, starring Monsieur Brad Pitt and Mademoiselle Marion Cotillard. The two play spies, one Canadian, one French that fall in love during a mission. One of them may not be who they seem… Chris and Matt then run down the latest releases on Blu-Ray & DVD, featuring the Straight To DVD and Streaming Picks Of The Week. Then it’s on to the attempt to expand the Harry Potter cinematic universe with the David Yates helmed ‘Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them’. This time we’re in early 20th Century New York. Eddie Redmayne plays a wizard with a suitcase full of secrets. Beasts even! And there is some evil afoot. The show wraps up with the guys’ Five Favorite Films About Betrayal. Will Wiseau’s ‘Room’ make the cut? (No.)
