This week on Movie Mindset we return to the genius of Robert Altman. Where last we left our hero he was examining the American character through the lens of a whorehouse and the city of Nashville, TN. For this episode. Will and Hesse are joined by our friends Andrew Hudson (@intellegint) and Taylor (@Tupacdurex) to discuss two Altman films about Los Angeles in the 90s: The Player and Short Cuts. In the The Player, Altman skewers the movie business in a meta satire about a studio executive who gets away with murder, and then in Short Cuts, adapts the work of Raymond Carver to devastating effect with one of the best casts ever assembled.

Only two of the stories were directly taken from Carver’s writing, so much water so close to home and a small good thing, but Altman was a huge fan and he totally captures the spirit of Carver’s work perfectly. Also popeye is one of my all time favorite movies, a movie that has me beaming for the full 2 hours
