TFR Ep. 639: The Whale, Bardo, A False Chronicle Of A Handful Of Truths, 5 Favorite Acting Comebacks
Chris Scalzo
This week on The First Run, renowned asshole Darren Aronofsky returns with ‘The Whale’. Perhaps we can get past all that and focus on Brendan Fraser and what’s being called one of the best performances of the year. Then we begin our best of 2022 catch up with Alejandro Iñárritu’s ‘Bardo, A False Chronicle Of A Handful Of Truths’. A story about a identity, crisis, and humanity, that maybe something entirely different. Auteur’s gonna’ auteur. There’s the brand new ultra-cool revamp of the big releases on Physical Media, featuring the Streaming and Straight to DVD Picks of the Week! Matt and Chris close out the big show by sharing their 5 Favorite Acting Comebacks. Nic Cage does not count. You gotta’ be gone before you make a comeback.
