Taylor Swift’s Hollywood Dreams, Plus Mary Bronstein on Her Uncompromising If I Had Legs I’d Kick You
Vanity Fair’s Kase Wickman and The Ankler’s own Chris Rosen join Katey to explain exactly what Taylor Swift brought to theaters this weekend, and why making her own movie at last might be the last mountain left for the pop icon to conquer. Then Katey talks to Mary Bronstein, whose darkly funny and surreal If I Had Legs I’d Kick You is the result of years of work and struggle — but absolutely zero compromise.

Live from Toronto: Joel Edgerton on Train Dreams, Home Movies, and Staying Ambitious
In front of a live audience at the TIFF Industry conference, I was joined onstage by Joel Edgerton, the star and executive producer of the lyrical new Netflix film Train Dreams. We talked about that gorgeous movie but also so much more, from how he and his brother Nash started making movies together at home in Australia to what it felt like to be a "stowaway" on a Star Wars set early in his career to what he's learned from working for Kathryn Bigelow, Baz Luhrmann, Barry Jenkins and many more directing luminaries. Though he may be most famous as an actor, Joel frequently works as a writer, director and producer, continuing to collaborate with his friends from his early days in Australia and even his brother — five days before our conversation, Nash was on set as his brother's stunt double.
Prestige Junkie After Party paid subscribers can watch the full video version of our conversation, which also includes some truly excellent audience questions at the end. Thanks to TIFF for partnering with us to make this happen, and thanks to everyone who could be there in person!
