Filmspotting #165: A Mighty Heart / Michael Winterbottom / Top 5 Journalism Movies

June 22: A week after lightly criticizing Filmspotting favorite Steven Soderbergh's new film "Ocean's Thirteen," Adam gets a chance to speak with another luminary in the Filmspotting universe, director Michael Winterbottom. Listen attentively as Adam does what no journalist has done since the director began work on his adaptation of Mariane Pearl's "A Mighty Heart": spend 15 minutes with Winterbottom without asking once about star Angelina Jolie or producer/husband Brad Pitt. Also on the show... Adam and Sam rate the return of Jolie as a 'serious actress' with their review of "A Mighty Heart."

Plus: Listener Feedback, Massacre Theatre and -- in honor of "A Mighty Heart" and the late Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl -- our Top 5 Journalism Movies.

Music by Gore Gore Girls from their new album "Get The Gore" courtesy of Bloodshot Records.
