TV & Film
This week, Liz and Evan start 2020 with a swerve, as they had to forgo the roulette’s original choice, instead selecting a shared blind spot in the 1992 classic Candyman. Join them as they're hypnotized by the instant icon that is Tony Todd’s titular character, get lost in the sauce of Chicago geography, and relish how the film manages to handle its many complex themes and layers so sophisticatedly while still being a genuinely thrilling (and sometimes delightfully surreal) sensory experience. If you're afraid of BOTH the exquisite pain and what comes after, then be sure to check out http://nowscreaming.com, and tell us what you think on Twitter @NowScreaming. You should also let us know if you’re interested in either more Oscars discussion or more video content (or both)!
