Brian WishartHOST
Another TIFF one I saw that I thought was really good too was Atonement by Reed Van Dyke.
Brian WishartHOST
It's one of those movies that, as a follow-up to the American Sniper episode, it's one of those movies that is about how sad it is to be a soldier and go through trauma for... killing people in a location where you should not be.
Brian WishartHOST
Boyd Holbrook plays a Marine who, during an encounter with insurgents in Iraq, he kills a few members of a family, of a Christian Iraqi family there.
Brian WishartHOST
The matriarch of the family played by Haim Abbas, and he's wrecked up by it.

Shawn GlinisGUEST
And for reasons we can talk about, but...
Shawn GlinisGUEST
I also remember going to see American Sniper like opening weekend with my girlfriend at the time and her mother and her veteran father-in-law it was like just a crazy event to see that movie like opening weekend because it was so fucking huge and just packed and And I remember also being like super turned off about it, but I kind of went in, you know, with the...
Jesse NussmanHOST
Prepared to dislike it.
Shawn GlinisGUEST
Yeah.
Shawn GlinisGUEST
Cause like the premise of it is, is, um, you know, potentially ludicrous, um, and being very moved by it and very like stimulated by it intellectually.
Shawn GlinisGUEST
And, um, yeah, In writing that piece that Jay is talking about, I kind of just like was interested in, I was like, oh, what if I was wrong about some of this stuff? And I mean, it wasn't like overnight, like I was very skeptical still of some of these movies that I didn't like when I saw them at first.
Shawn GlinisGUEST
But sort of going back into, you know, some of like the 80s stuff and just being like, I wonder if any of this like Heartbreak Ridge, like does any of the themes that I saw in 1517 like appear in something like that? And then slowly over the years following, revisiting stuff like Million Dollar Baby, Gran Torino, American Sniper, and then seeing stuff like Bridges of Madison County and the one after that with the Father-Son movie.
Shawn GlinisGUEST

Greg GoodellGUEST
Be present, be there, right? Do you remember the movie American Sniper?
JoeyHOST
Yeah.
Greg GoodellGUEST
So you remember when Chris comes home from his deployment and he goes to the bar and he's sitting there and he's having a drink?

SKHOST
That's also funny.
EmilyHOST
Rip the President, you would have loved Dominatrixes.
Andrea KayeHOST
And there's nothing you can do about it because they own the property.
Andrea KayeHOST
So if you've got somebody like when I lived up on Soledad, I could spend days talking about this crazy, insane woman who's the ex-wife, by the way, of the guy who wrote the book American Sniper.
Andrea KayeHOST
Anyway, story for another day.
Andrea KayeHOST
Well, there's a huge controversy brewing around Airbnb right now.
