It's a Tom Cruise world and the rest of the actors in this film are just living in it! With Shahir out of town (totally not doing covert ops for the CIA)Matt's cinematic mission is saved by guest Co-Hosts Red Charyszyn of Sikelia Productions and Anastasia Pridlides of Alexander Technique fame! Is this film the comedic tale of a man just trying to provide for his family while too deep in a life of crime?

On September 13th, New Yorkers voted for Spike Lee's "Crooklyn" as the inaugural "One Film, One New York". Since we're The ONLY Podcast About Movies and happen to live in New York, it was our duty to continue the conversation about Lee's 1994 semi-autobiographical film! Let's take a trip down memory lane to 1973, BedStuy, where one family struggles to make the rent and the kids are running riot. Youngest girl Troy (Zelda Harris) carries the weight of responsability as the realities of a strained marriage threaten to tear her family apart. We're really happy to have been part of #onefilmny and look forward to your bagel orders which you can send directly to onlymoviepodcast@gmail.com.
