Why The Film Industry Turned Against Flo...

MAMAMIA PODCASTS
About this episode

On the show today…

Well, it’s a sad day for anyone who uses Netflix (so, basically all of us) because the streaming service is cracking down on account sharing. Here’s what you need to know.

And one of the most talked about new TV shows of the year, The Idol, made its debut this week at the Cannes Film Festival and the initial reviews and reactions are extreme, to say the least. But that's exactly what they wanted.

Plus, Florence Pugh has done a new profile interview with Time magazine, focusing on the extinction of movie stars. In the interview, she talks about the movie role that almost made the film industry turn against her, but why it was still the right choice for her career.
