August is Auteur Month here at Fancy Film Fellows! Basil, Patrick, and Reuben discuss movies they loved as children but haven’t seen since they were children. The theme this time is auteurs! So we picked three movies by well-regarded directors that we considered childhood favorites and decided to revisit them with adult eyes. Reuben picked Manhattan, Basil picked Forrest Gump, and Patrick picked O Brother, Where Art Thou? Do these movies still hold up? Or were they better left to the vestiges of memory?
