Drive-Away Dolls LIVE from Maya Cinemas (Featuring Lizette Hunter, Shahab Zargari & Faith Nault)

On the 357th episode of Piecing It Together, we are LIVE from Maya Cinemas in North Las Vegas with guests Lizette Hunter, Shahab Zargari and Faith Nault to talk about Drive-Away Dolls! The first directorial effort from Ethan Coen without his brother (but this time with his wife Tricia Cooke) is a lesbians on the run comedy that was a little more explicit than I think any of us were expecting. Puzzle pieces include But I'm A Cheerleader, Spies Like Us, Everything Everywhere All At Once and a whole bunch of Coen Brothes movies.

As always, SPOILER ALERT for Drive-Away Dolls and the movies we discuss!

Written by Ethan Coen and Tricia Cooke

Directed by Ethan Coen

Starring Margaret Qualley, Geraldine Viswanathan, Beanie Feldstein, Joey Slotnick, C.J. Wilson, Colman Domingo, Matt Damon, Pedro Pascal

About the Podcast

Piecing It Together Podcast
All Points West
A podcast about movies and the movies that inspired them. A good movie is the result of a large number of people both in front of and behind the camera combining to create a piece of art… But what about the movies that came before that inspired those filmmakers to make the movie? On Piecing It Together we figure out what the clear (and not so clear) influences were that make up the movies we love.
