This week I'm joined by Ryan Arey from the YouTube channel ScreenCrush. We discuss growing up in small town Ohio before examining the film adaptation of J.D. Vance's memoir, Hillbilly Elegy. To quote Ryan Arey -- "This movie is awful."

CALIFORNIA: Real Women Have Curves w/ MovieMija

50 States of Cinema examines movies with a unique focus on setting. Specifically, the states in which they’re set and the people who have lived there. Each week Adam Tinius (Entertain The Elk) is joined by a guest who talks about the good, bad and ugly of living in a particular state, and then they examine a movie from that same state to see what the filmmakers got right and wrong, and to see how the setting helps tell the story. Can states serve as a window into different worlds? Can learning about different cultures, histories and traditions help us better understand and empathize with people from all walks of life? Listen to 50 States of Cinema and find out!
