Review of the 10s
It’s been a more prolific decade for Amblin than the previous one, but does that translate into quality?

Finch (2021)
After an almost two-year hiatus (can’t quite remember why now), Amblin returns with the first film released after we started this podcast: Miguel Sapochnik’s 2021 streaming title FINCH.

Maestro (2023) with Barry Levitt
We’re thinking of a number… No, you have to think… It’s five, darling. Five. Hmm? That’s the amount of times the great Barry Levitt has guested on this podcast. And the film to mark the occasion?

The Color Purple (2023)
It’s a Ramblin first as we revisit the same river for a second time, but it is not the same river and we are not the same podcast hosts. That’s largely because five and a half years have passed since our previous episode on THE COLOR PURPLE, and also because this 2023 version is an adaptation of ...
