We begin this week’s Voice Film Club podcast with a Thomas Pynchon story, before hosts Alan Scherstuhl and Stephanie Zacharek of the Village Voice, and Amy Nicholson of LA Weekly, move onto Paul Thomas Anderson’s movie adaption of his novel, Inherent Vice. It’s “in some ways a godawful mess, indulgent in a way a less-respected director would never be able to get away with. And it’s two and a half hours long not because it needs to be, but because it can be,” writes Stephanie Zacharek in her review.

The middle movie this week is Chris Rock’s Top Five, a movie that we love. Skip to 21:20 to hear that segment. The show wraps up with Exodus, starring Christian Bale. “The only way Bale’s Moses could be the humblest man alive is if the rest of the planet were killed,” writes Nicholson in her review. Do Alan and Stephanie agree?
