We're back to discuss Laura Dern's two big film roles of 2019, including the one she's going to win an Oscar for! Enjoy!

Hey, did you know Laura Dern deserves an Oscar? I mean, we all know that, but did you know she starred in a film called CITIZEN RUTH where she is just so incredible that she should have just won in 1996? Yeah, it's that good. Directed by Alexander Payne, CITIZEN RUTH is the story of a destitute young woman who just wants to survive and get high. But when she finds out she's pregnant (again), she finds herself being used in the war between pro-life and pro-choice activists. Please watch this movie ASAP, and Dern't you forget about us!

This whole world's wild at heart and crazy on top, so it's time to get to the HEART of the matter. Dern Cast returns for its second installment, where we talk about David Lynch's misunderstood classic WILD AT HEART. We discuss the difficulty inherent in discussing Lynch's work, Twin Peaks alumni, Nic Cage's weird face, and Diane Ladd's Oscar nomination. Dern't you forget about us! (Yes, that's the slogan)

Wait a second! This isn't about Ethan Hawke! That's right, beloved listeners - there's a second extremely-specific podcast in town, and this one is focusing on the works of LAURA DERN!!!!!! Kyle and new cohost/Hawke Cast regular ELIZABETH HOPKINS are here to discuss one of Dern's earliest films, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE FABULOUS STAINS. It's a remarkable film with rock music, anti-capitalist messages, and Diane Lane! Thanks for listening and Dern't forget to rate and subscribe!
