Spoilerpiece Theatre 251: The Intruder

Evan Crean

In Episode 251 of my podcast Spoilerpiece Theatre, we review The Intruder and the films we saw at IFFBoston 2019. This week, Kris kicks things off with The Intruder (3:40), a much-needed breath of trashy fresh air. He had a great time and thinks you might as well. Next up is our recap of IFFBoston, revisiting some of the highlights from Boston’s biggest film festival. Included are Luce (13:55), Ask Dr. Ruth (24:43), The Death of Dick Long (30:28), Ernie & Joe (36:07), Official Secrets (44:14), The Nightingale (content warning, 54:45), Gutterbug (1:02:40), and The Farewell (1:09:19).

Evan Crean

Hello! My name is Evan Crean. By day I work for a marketing agency, but by night, I’m a film critic based in Boston, MA. Since 2009, I have written hundreds of movie reviews and celebrity interviews for Starpulse.com. I have also contributed pieces to NewEnglandFilm.com and to The Independent, as a writer and editor. I maintain an active Letterboxd account too. In addition to publishing short form work, I am a co-author of the book Your ’80s Movie Guide to Better Living, which is available on CreateSpace and Amazon. The book is the first in a series of lighthearted self-help books for film fans, which distills advice from ’80s movies on how to tackle many of life’s challenges. On top of writing, I co-host and edit the weekly film podcast Spoilerpiece Theatre with two other Boston film critics. I’m a founding member and the current treasurer for the Boston Online Film Critics Association as well. This site, Reel Recon.com, is a one-stop-shop where you can find links to all of my past and present work. Have any questions or comments after checking it out?
