Description
Who better to help us close out our month of high-profile misfires than THE Nathan Rabin, author of My Year of Flops and The Joy of Trash? On the table are two wildly ambitious passion projects whose disastrous Cannes premieres threatened to end their directors’ careers: Richard Kelly's 2006 gonzo sci-fi satire Southland Tales, and David Robert Mitchell's 2018 absurdist noir Under the Silver Lake. We discuss the films’ unique visions of L.A., the career-best performances of their movie star leads, and if these flops— in the words of our guest— are actually secret successes.
