Hosts Tim Rosenberger -- a film writer for Film Obsessive, a blogger, and YouTuber -- and Rosalie Lewis, a writer for FThisMovie.com, look at two films from comedian, actress, writer, and director Elaine May. A New Leaf (1971) stars her and Walter Matthau in a romantic dark comedy and Mikey and Nicky (1976) co-stars Peter Falk and John Cassavetes in a gangster drama. Tim and Rosalie discuss May's twist's on these well-trodden genres and May's clashes with her studio.
