Description

We already did an early review of the big movie of the week -- Luca Guadagnino's "Challengers," which we loved -- but there's plenty more to talk about here at Breakfast All Day. First, we look at Ethan Hawke's "Wildcat," in which he directs his daughter, Maya Hawke, in an inventive biopic about the writer Flannery O'Connor. We're mixed on it but admire the ambition as well as Maya Hawke's performance. It opens in limited release on May 3 before going wider the following week. But this weekend, you can see Ridley Scott's sci-fi masterpiece "Alien" in the theater. The 1979 film is having a brief but wide run in honor of its 45th anniversary, so if you haven't seen it in a while or you've never seen it projected, this is a great opportunity. Send us pictures if you end up checking it out -- we're @bfastallday on Instagram. Here's a ink to where you can find "Alien" near you: https://www.fandango.com/alien-45th-anniversary-re-release-2024-235716/movie-overview  And for our Patreon subscribers, we go in-depth on the last two episodes of "Ripley." We're extremely conflicted about the finale, but love the Netflix series as a whole. What are your thoughts? Let us know! We're back on Tuesday at Noon Pacific with a LIVE "Challengers" spoiler chat, so make sure you join us. 'Til then, have a great weekend.
