After a month of Halloween horror, we needed something to lift our spirits this week. Thankfully, special guest Charlie Dudley (of Why Did I Do That? and A Podcast for Everyone) was on hand with The Way Way Back - a sweet natured summer coming-of-age movie that managed to warm even our cold, cynical hearts.

Written by Oscar winners Jim Rash and Nat Faxon, The Way Way Back stars Liam James as a shy 14 year old reluctantly accompanying his mother (Toni Collette) and her domineering boyfriend (Steve Carrell) on a summer vacation. While there he befriends a charming water park manager played by Sam Rockwell, who helps him to escape the endless humiliation of his family life with a part-time job and some questionable, but effective, life lessons.

Featuring a hilarious supporting cast including Alison Janney, Maya Rudolph and Amanda Peet, The Way Way Back is a hidden gem were were extremely happy to discover. Tune into this week's episode for our thoughts on questionable water park ethics, offensive capri pants, Steve Carrell's effective against-cast performance as an irredeemable douchebag and much more.

As always, we also pitch our own sequel ideas for the movie, which this week include a couple of equally bittersweet reunion movies, and one rather less wholesome left-turn into the murky realm of adult partner swapping... Look, it makes sense in context, OK?

-----

Each week on Beyond The Box Set, intrepid hosts Harry Chappell and John Lucas watch a beloved standalone movie, and risk the ire of the fans by pitching ridiculous sequel, prequel and spin-off ideas to bring them back to the big screen. Our credits include recommendations from The Guardian, Podbean, Apple Podcasts and over 150 five-star iTunes reviewers. Only 147 of which we wrote ourselves under assumed names.

If you like our show, you can subscribe on your preferred podcatcher to receive a new episode every Friday morning. Reviews and recommendations are great for our self esteem, and really help us to attract new listeners. We also have a Patreon page, where you can sign up to be a VIP listener for as little as $2 per month, in return for some fabulous exclusive bonus content. Merchandise is also available via Teepublic.com.
