Description

<p>This week, the Best in Show crew finds out what they’re made for with Grammy-winning special guests Billie Eilish and Finneas. The superstar sibling duo is behind the Best Original Song Oscar nominee ‘What Was I Made For?’, and <a href="https://boxd.it/8Gr1" rel="noopener noreferrer">Mia</a> chats with them about hiding secrets in their devastating-but-hopeful tune, the music and movies that make them feel emotionally validated and Billie’s directing aspirations. There’s also some queening out over a mutual love of Andrew Scott in <em>Fleabag</em> and <em>Sherlock—</em>relevant because he and Billie are both nominated in acting categories at the Indie Spirits this year (him for <a href="https://boxd.it/Bz3C" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>All of Us Strangers</em></a>, her for <a href="https://boxd.it/FIFe" rel="noopener noreferrer">Sw<em>arm</em></a>), and because Andrew is always relevant. London Editor Ella Kemp pops in as well for a BAFTAs debrief, sharing her interviews with Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Samantha Morton and Best in Show bestie Paul Mescal.</p> <p><strong>Chapters:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Opening credits (00:00:00)</li> <li>BAFTA recap and red carpet interviews (00:01:43)</li> <li>Behind the curtain (00:23:36)</li> <li>Billie Eilish and FINNEAS interview (00:26:08)</li> <li>Winner Winner Chicken Run Dinner (00:45:29)</li> <li>Closing credits (00:59:40)</li> </ul> <p><strong>Sponsor:</strong> <a href="https://letterboxd.com/sonypictures/">Sony Pictures</a></p> <p><strong>Credits:</strong> Recorded in Los Angeles and London.
