'I Love Boosters'
Fresh from the theater, we dive headfirst into Boots Riley’s latest, I Love Boosters. This colorful, high-fashion heist film follows a crew of shoplifters who resell designer gear, as they target a cutthroat fashion icon played by Demi Moore. We break down the incredible cast, from the great Kiki Palmer leading the charge to a nearly unrecognizable Don Cheadle. The film is a total feast for the senses, featuring a janky stop-motion aesthetic, a 17-degree tilted apartment set and a pulsing soundtrack by Tune-Yards. Beyond the fun, we discuss how Riley uses his signature stylized satire to take aim at the fashion industry and advocate for workers' rights. Then we wrap things up by teasing tease Riley’s next project, an adaptation of Mr. Burns, a Post-Electric Play , and share our latest obsessions, including the eerie comedy-drama Widow's Bay and the physical comedy of Chris Fleming. ##### Cinebuds is sponsored by Joe Wilde Garage Door Company .
