Welcome to episode 89 of Viva Physical Media! We kick off with some surprise "Rapid Recs' (1989, Emalie's Version) in honor of our 89th episode and Emalie's birth year. Then we move into an all new battle in the ring, everyone's favorite segment "Raunch vs. Rom!" The fighters this week are the bikini-stealing dog movie MALIBU BEACH (1978) vs. the rom-com version of BIRTH, CHANCES ARE (1989!). Vote below and choose wisely. Emalie chats about the unstreamable Joan River's-written dark comedy THE GIRL MOST LIKELY TO...(1973) while Matt shows his allegiance to Radiance with THE CAT from 1988. Emalie follows up with her second pick, the haunting coming-of-age THE REFLECTING SKIN (1990), and Matt reminds us why we love Meryl Streep with the underseen post WW2 drama, PLENTY (1985). Our dog movie this time is more of an eccentric character study than anything else, so buckle up and meet the weirdos and ugly pups behind WORST IN SHOW: THE WORLD'S UGLIEST DOG (2010). Until next time, Viva Physical Media!
