The Gist - Anatomy Of A Barbenmaestro Of The Flower Moon

Its Oscar talk with Decoding Everything and Filmcast's David Chen. Why Mike thought Maestro hit sour notes ... and why David thought the structure of Oppenheimer was more stamped from a hard plastic mold than Barbie.

Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara
