The Big Picture

A film review podcast from The Ringer covering the week’s key movie releases with sharp analysis and lively discussions. Episodes feature top fives, movie drafts, Oscar predictions, and guest appearances from directors, actors, and Ringer colleagues like Chris Ryan. It blends cinephile insights with accessible takes on cinema’s biggest stories and trends.

Later, Curry Barker joins the show to discuss his new horror film, ‘Obsession’. He explains how he got his start as a filmmaker in Alabama, shares his personal perspective as a person who went through the YouTube pipeline, and breaks down what’s next for him as both a director and an actor (1:19:23).
