Daniel, Shahbaz, & Anthony review Eric Appel's WEIRD: THE AL YANKOVIC STORY as part of The Movie Podcast's 2022 Toronto International Film Festival coverage. The film is the unvarnished, “true” account of ”Weird Al” Yankovic’s meteoric rise from a humble accordion player who replaced the lyrics of popular songs with funny new ones to a rich and famous celebrity accordion player who continued to replace the lyrics of popular songs with funny new ones. It stars Daniel Radcliffe, Evan Rachel Wood, Rainn Wilson, Toby Huss, Arturo Castro, and Julianne Nicholson. Weird: The Al Yankovic Story will stream for free globally on The Roku Channel on November 4, 2022 and will debut as a Gala Presentation at TIFF at Royal Alexandra Theatre on September 8, 2022.
