FS #189: Atonement / Top 5 Supporting Performances of 2007

December 7: Director Joe Wright's adaptation of Ian McEwan's acclaimed 2001 novel "Atonement" is garnering a lot of critical buzz. Will Adam be too distracted by the presence of his man-crush James McAvoy to recognize Wright's technical brilliance? Can Matty look past his aversion to most things described as "sweeping" and "British?"

Plus, Listener Feedback, Massacre Theatre and Filmspotting's Top 5 Supporting Performances of 2007.

Music by Kelly Hogan courtesy of Bloodshot Records.
