What Keep Us Up at Night - "Plan B," "The Sparks Brothers," "The Dry" and More!

Sitting Around Talking Movies

This summer has gotten very warm very fast. So this week we gathered during the cool of the evening to tell you about Hollywood's latest offerings on big and small screens. First Bill Bregoli, a man who's not afraid of movies with two female leads, tells us about "Plan B." Directed by Natalie Morales, it follows a straight-laced high school student and her slacker best friend who, after a regrettable first sexual encounter, have 24 hours to hunt down a Plan B pill in America's heartland. It's a comedy! Then Neil tells us about "The Sparks Brothers." It's a documentary about Los Angeles brothers Ron and Russell who, growing up in the 60s, got by on a heavy diet of popcorn matinees and pop music until the spotlight of school talent shows illuminated their way on a musical journey as the Sparks and spawned 25 studio albums. Bill McCuddy fills us in on "The Dry." It stars Eric Bana as a federal agent who returns to his home town after an absence of over twenty years to attend the funeral of his childhood friend, Luke, who allegedly killed his wife and child before taking his own life - a victim of the madness that has ravaged this community after more than a decade of drought. Oh, but there's more including Neil's updates on "The Handmaid's Tale" and "The Story of Late Night." And speaking of late night shows, Bill McCuddy tells us about his ill-fated appearance on "The Late Show with Conan O'Brien." It's all worth staying up for so listen in!
