15: Michael Bourret Loves Soapdish

Soapdish features not only one of Sally Field’s best performances but also one of the best comedic performances ever in a movie. And while it’s not uncommon for a gay guy who came of age in the 1990s to love the film, that love has to contend with a surprise ending that reads very problematic in 2018. Literary agent and avowed book-reading person Michael Bourret joins Drew and Tony to talk through this one.
