Best (Family) Pictures / Laurent Barth Pet Nat

Episode 59,   Feb 10, 2023, 08:00 AM

It’s PART TWO of our annual Oscar Best Picture roundup!

Is EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE the craziest movie to ever get nominated for *eleven* Oscars? If you didn’t see AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER in IMAX 3D HFR, did you really see it? Is THE FABELMANS a compelling narrative beyond the meta-textual Spielbergian origin story? Has Jamie found a winner in the Laurent Barth Pet Nat, or will Scott find something to complain about in yet another bottle of bubbly? Press play with your hot dog fingers for all the answers! 


  • EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE is written and directed by The Daniels, stars Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan, Stephanie Hsu, and Jamie Lee Curtis. As of this episode’s release, you can watch it streaming on Showtime or for purchase wherever you get your VODs.
  • AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER is directed and co-written by Jamies Cameron and stars Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldaña, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lange, and Payakan. It’s currently in theaters everywhere.
  • THE FABELMANS is directed by Steven Spielberg, written by Spielberg and Tony Kushner, and stars Gabriel LaBelle, Michelle Williams, Paul Dano, Seth Rogen, and Judd Hirsch. It’s still in select theaters and is available for VOD purchase.
  • Laurent Barth’s 2019 Alsace Petillant Naturel is currently out of stock at most major retailers though the good folks at Chambers Street Wines generally pick it up upon release. Keep an eye on their site for availability.
