Knives Out (2019) | Ep. 130

Author: All The Right Movies February 27, 2026 Duration: 2:29:01

Luke, Matt, and Westy gather round the Thrombey estate to investigate Rian Johnson's modern whodunit masterpiece. We tell the story of how Johnson wrote the script on spec, assembled a murderers' row of A-listers, and turned every detective movie convention inside out, all while giving Daniel Craig the most gloriously absurd accent of his career. From the casting battles to the donut hole speech, we dig into the craft, the chaos, and why this film made studios remember that original screenplays still pack houses.


Telling the story of Hollywood, one film at a time.
