For what is possibly THE GREATEST FILM OF ALL TIME we present our longest episode of THE GRAND GESTURE for Diablo Cody and Jason Reitman's YOUNG ADULT. To discuss how Charlize Theron's character of Mavis is actually the heroic monster returning to her hometown to demolish boring lives is Allison of NOT YOUR LITTLE LADY. Among the many charms of this particular film we discuss our own experiences living in small towns, strange accusations made at the theater when seeing this film on Christmas Day, and just how damn insulting an email or a song can be in regards to an old high school flame. Also Patrick Wilson's dumb face. All this and more at the links below!
