In this episode of the show we are continuing our August conversations about Ben Stiller in 1998 and we are talking about the mostly forgotten gem written and directed by Neil LaBute, Your Friends & Neighbors. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about the many ways in which this movie fits (or does not) in the 90s indie Hollywood scene, how much it owes to Woody Allen, Mike Nichols and Steven Soderbergh and just how much can be accomplished with four people in a room and not much in terms of production value. We also talk Ben Stiller’s facial hair, Catherine Keener’s sense of humour and how one scene can pound the viewer into the ground.

Tune in and enjoy!
