"Primal Fear": Films of 1996 + "Companion" "Nickel Boys" "Captain America: Brave New World"

This week, the boys head back to 1996, a peak movie year featuring dozens of movies we’ve all seen multiple times! Dave kicks things off with mini-reviews of “Captain America: Brave New World” and “Companion”. John gives some quick thoughts about “Nickel Boys”. For our featured conversation, we chose “Primal Fear”, the movie that gave us Edward Norton and helped Richard Gere prepare for “Chicago”. Set in and out of a Chicago courtroom, this movie reminds you why movies were better in the 90s. And as John said, it’s more than just a genre film!
