We are 96 weeks away from the 100th Academy Awards; follow Adam, Drew, and Sarah as they check in to cosmopolitan Berlin with the fifth Best Picture winner - 1932's Grand Hotel.

What if Mike White was a time traveler who went back in time to test a pilot for The White Lotus in the 1930s?  This is exactly what Grand Hotel feels like - a cast of colorful characters interacting within the walls of a luxury hotel dealing with deceit, devotion, and even death.  Grand Hotel is our most contained and character-driven Best Picture winner thus far - but how do we feel about that?

In this episode you're gonna hear:
  • Why the Grand Hotel in Berlin was the right setting for this movie
  • Which iconic Illumination character shares a name with a character in this movie
  • The merits of replacing golden retreivers with dachsunds as the cinematic dog of choice
  • Our piping hot takes on the new Best Casting Oscar
