The Way Way Back

The Mike's are watching this week's film from the back of a station wagon as they discuss the 2013 film The Way Way Back, starring Steve Carell, Sam Rockwell, and Toni Collette.

Listen as Mike Butler and Mike Field discuss this coming-of-age comedy/drama. From the great dialogue from Rockwell's character to the story and it's adherence to the main character's point of view. This movie carries along its themes out in a meaningful, but still fun and enjoyable way.

About the Podcast

Forgotten Cinema
A podcast about forgotten films that deserve a second chance
Welcome to Forgotten Cinema! Each episode, Mike Field and Mike Butler highlight a film that for a variety of reasons was forgotten by audiences. Whether it be because a more popular movie was released at the same time or the movie simply didn’t catch on with an audience in the its initial run. We’ll discuss what we love about the movie or perhaps don’t love about it and decide whether the movie is worth a revisit.
