On this episode, JD and Brendan discuss the debut film from Andrew DeYoung in Friendship, starring Tim Robinson and Paul Rudd!

This week on Women InSession, we discuss the legendary costume designer William Travilla and his iconic work with the great Marilyn Monroe!

If not, it’s obviously very much in the conversation. So we wanted to talk about this pairing and what it means for the legacy of cinema.
