Cinema Misfits Podcast, Episode 30: The Fighter, Winter’s Bone, The Kids Are All Right, and 127 Hours

The Fighter.  Both Christian Bale and Melissa Leo won Oscars for their supporting roles.  Although it isn’t exactly clear who they’re supporting, it doesn’t seem to be Mark Wahlberg.

Winter’s Bone.  Hillbilly noir or one of last year’s better films?

The Kids Are All Right.  Who are these people?  Is this just your standard issue Hollywood love triangle tricked out in lesbian drag to make it seem “new and edgy,” or is it actually some kind of science fiction film that takes place in an alternate universe populated by annoying, self-centered people who actually say things like “all right” and “groovy”?
