About the episode
Sean and Amanda return to continue their yearlong project of listing the 25 best movies of the 21st century so far. Today, they discuss one of the greatest sports movies of all time: Bennett Miller’s Moneyball—starring Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill. They explore the film’s very curious production history with director Steven Soderbergh, share why they think this was the best performance of Pitt’s career, and examine what the movie’s legacy is considering Miller’s lack of work following its release.
Hosts: Sean Fennessey and Amanda Dobbins
Producer: Jack Sanders
