31 - The Lovers & The Exception

September 23, 2019

Lee and Dallas look at two lesser known A24 films, The Lovers and The Exception.

Debra Winger and Tracy Letts play a long-married, dispassionate couple in The Lovers who are both in the midst of serious affairs. But on the brink of calling it quits, a spark between them suddenly reignites, leading them into an impulsive romance.

The Exception sees a German soldier try to determine if the Dutch resistance has planted a spy to infiltrate the home of Kaiser Wilhelm in Holland during the onset of World War II, but falls for a young Jewish Dutch woman during his investigation.

In A24 Hour News we discuss the Midsommar director's cut and preview an upcoming interview with Chris Bergoch, the co-writer of The Florida Project.
