The Silver Linings Playlist
Not every movie wraps up with a neat little bow on the end. Some leave you asking "what the f@#$?!" We're here to find the silver lining in the latter. Join Dustin, Mallie, and Nathan every Monday as we try to find the light at the end of the tunnel for some of cinema's bleakest endings.

Episode 189: The Hunt (2020)
We’re not quite done discussing the divide between liberals and conservatives this season, but this movie seems to be as 2020’s The Hunt has virtually nothing to say on the topic (other than having its characters shout buzzwords.) A swing and a miss from this Leftovers duo, Zobel and Lindelof managed to make a movie that’s all hype with no substance. But we still have a lot to say about this one, so take out your mouth gag and strap up as we discuss the film as well as do some classic dirtbag math, debate the guild pay for crisis actors, and ponder what it would be like if Legolas has Uzis instead of a bow. (Is anyone else getting some real Boss Baby vibes from this movie?)
The Hunt (2020) stars J. C. MacKenzie, Ethan Suplee, Macon Blair, Betty Gilpin, Emma Roberts, Hilary Swank, Justin Hartley, Ike Barinholtz, Amy Madigan, and Glenn Howerton. Directed by Craig Zobel.
