For this week's third podcast review, Nadia DalimonteDan BayerKatie Johnson, and Giovanni Lago join me to review and discuss the latest film from Mary Bronstein, "If I Had Legs I'd Kick You," starring Rose Byrne, Conan O'Brien, Danielle Macdonald, Christian Slater, and ASAP Rocky. It is a psychological, nerve-wracking comedy-drama film that follows a mother desperately trying to navigate her daughter's mysterious illness, her absent husband, a missing person, and an increasingly hostile relationship with her therapist. The film had its world premiere at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, where it received positive reviews for Rose Byrne's performance, Bronstein's direction, the supporting performances of the rest of the cast, and the screenplay's confrontations with uncomfortable truths surrounding motherhood and parenting. Please tune in as we discuss these elements, its awards season chances, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for listening, and enjoy!
