Welcome to the third Movie Date Award Season Dispatch - in which Rafer and Kristen do not talk about award season at all. Instead, they focus on the strange intersections of politics and performance. Each dispatch is taken from a live interview, led by WNYC's Amy Eddings, and broadcast during All Things Considered on WNYC.
Rafer Guzman is the film critic for Newsday and a former rock critic for the paper. He was previously a staff writer at The Wall Street Journal. His work has also appeared in Rolling Stone, Blender, The San Francisco Bay Guardian and the late, great Option magazine.
Kristen Meinzer is an associate producer for The Takeaway and co-host of The Takeaway's Movie Date podcast.
