Episode 58: Glenn, Amy and the Pool Lady: The BSA's of "Hillbilly Elegy" (2020)

Glenn Close's grizzled, bespectacled Mamaw in "Hillbilly Elegy" is giving us past BSA vibes of Melissa Leo, Amy Ryan and Allison Janney, but will this be the performance that finally earns her an Oscar? On a scale of 1 to "Junebug," where does Amy Adams' performance as Bev fall, and does she stand a chance in what's shaping up to be a tight race for Best Actress? To say nothing of the pool lady, who we equally obsess over in this week's episode, as well as Hans Zimmer's score, Glenn's wardrobe, Best Supporting Sisters, and the pitch-perfect details of life in a forgotten part of America.
