This week on The First Run, Chris and Matt saddle up with some cowhands in the streets of…northern Philadelphia(?!?) in ‘Concrete Cowboy’. Idris Elba appears along-side Caleb McLaughlin in this family, coming of age drama. Are horses the key to growth, or is there something deeper going on? Then the end of our Studio Ghibli Marathon is in sight with our penultimate film, ‘My Neighbor Tortoro’. The story of a family resettling after a family illness and the woodland spirits they befriend. There’s the wholesome and loving review of the big releases on Physical Media, featuring the Straight to DVD and Streaming Picks of the Week. Matt and Chris close out the big show with their 2021 Oscars Predictions. Find out who will win and who should have won. All this and more, on this episode of The First Run.
