You’re on the free list, which means you’ve yet to take advantage of our … only? … sale of the year. (I can’t remember another one, anyway.) Twenty percent off for the year is a great deal on top of the already great deal for the firehose of hashtag content we put out. And you’ll unlock access to all those episodes of Across the Movie Aisle you missed. Sign up today! Subscribe to the show on these podcast platforms: On this week's episode, Sonny Bunch (The Bulwark), Alyssa Rosenberg (The Washington Post), and Peter Suderman (Reason), talk about the sad state of Junot Diaz. Semafor's Ben Smith interviewed the novelist about his odd career limbo; why can't folks who were accused of misbehavior before being exonerated get their reputations back? Then the gang shifts to a cleaner Me Too target: Harvey Weinstein and the movie She Said, based on the book by Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor about their efforts to unveil the producer's monstrous behavior towards women. Sadly the movie isn't that good, and we try to understand why. (On this episode we also mention Ken Auletta's book, Hollywood Ending; Sonny talked to him a couple of months back about Weinstein and his enablers.) Make sure to swing by Bulwark+ on Friday for our bonus episode on Chinese protests against draconian Covid lockdowns and the desire among the people for “cinema freedom.” You’re on the free list for Across the Movie Aisle.
