Cinema fans are talking about "The Whale" for a lot of reasons. One is its director, Darren Aronofsky, who is best known for his intense films like "Black Swan" and "Requiem for a Dream." Another cause for conversation is the comeback of Brendan Fraser, who has been out of the spotlight for some years after saying he was blacklisted from Hollywood.We sit down with the screenwriter Samuel Hunter to discuss the movie's subject matter, which has drawn the ire of some critics.But there's more to discuss than just one film. We roundup our panel and talk about some of the best (and most disappointing) films of the year. Want to support 1A? Give to your local public radio station and subscribe to this podcast.
