July 15, 2019

Dallas and Lee watch two A24 films for the first time, Morris from America and The Sea of Trees.

First up we check out Morris from America, Morris is a 13-year-old African-American who moves to Germany with his dad and falls for a girl at a youth club who encourages him to open up and share his rapping skills.

In The Sea of Trees, a suicidal American played by Matthew McConaughey befriends a Japanese man lost in a forest near Mt. Fuji, a popular suicide spot and the two search for a way out.

In A24 Hour News we look at the release of Midsommar, A24 Public Access and preview an upcoming interview on our podcast with the writer/director of The Ballad of Lefty Brown, Jared Moshe.
