About this episode
This week, we're joined by the insanely talented and hilarious comedian/writer/producer Maggie Looke. She's so much fun... so we gave her a deeply depressing movie to watch. 'Nancy' is a 2018 drama film directed by Christina Choe, starring Andrea Riseborough and featuring John Leguizamo and Steve Buschemi - a delicious character actor pair-up, we reckon. Neither John or Steve are ever in the same scene together in this film, but knowing that they are both there fills us with an electric joy. The movie tells the story of Nancy, a mysterious and sad woman who has made a habit of making up elaborate lies about her life - both online and with the few people she interacts with in her real life. One day, she sees a television interview with a couple whose child went missing over 30 years ago. Nancy takes it upon herself to tell this couple that she is their long lost daughter. John plays Jeb - a reader of Nancy's blog full of lies. He is in this film for two scenes, totalling about 4 minutes of screen time. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
