Episode Did Mark ‘Louvre’ Josh O’Connor’s timely heist movie THE MASTERMIND? + Does SPRINGSTEEN deliver?
This Week on the Show: Josh O’Connor, Kelly Reichardt & the Art of the Heist
Fresh off the headlines of a real-life Louvre robbery, indie auteur Kelly Reichardt and breakout star Josh O’Connor join Simon to talk about their buzzy new film, The Mastermind—a stylish 70s-set art-heist drama that’s suddenly feeling very timely. O’Connor plays JB, a slacker dad whose low-stakes gallery theft spirals into something far more chaotic. Expect Nixon-era nostalgia, vintage fashion deep-dives, and awkward ovation etiquette. Plus, Josh spills on his upcoming Spielberg project—yes, that Spielberg.
Mark Reviews:
The Mastermind – Does Reichardt’s latest live up to the hype?
Regretting You – A romantic drama with a title tailor-made for snark. Mark’s rant radar is fully activated.
Sketch – A family film where kids’ drawings come to life. But does the magic hold up?
Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere – Jeremy Allen White stars as The Boss in this hotly anticipated biopic. Does it rock or roll off the rails?
