Breakfast All Day Podcast 9/3/21

We’re so happy to be together again on Breakfast All Day. We took a couple weeks off at the end of summer, but Matt, Alonso and I are back with reviews of the musical “Cinderella,” the horror sequel “Candyman,” the rom-com remake “He’s All That,” and “Swan Song,” with its lovely lead performance from Udo Kier. In news, we talk about what we’ve been up to over vacation, the Telluride and Venice film festivals, the opening this week of “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the 10 Rings” (and why none of us has seen it), Patty Jenkins‘ streaming comments, Miles Teller‘s covid infection, new release dates for several big movies (including “Top Gun: Maverick”), the fake Keanu Reeves scam and the death of the great Ed Asner at 91. And over at our Patreon, we recap the last three episodes of “Ted Lasso,” which go into far deeper emotional territory than we ever could have imagined. So kick off your glass slippers and join us over this long holiday weekend.
