In this episode of Movie Nerds, Kyle and Russel chat about films about obsessing over your profession.
 
Using 2010's Black Swan and 2017's Phantom Thread as conversation starters, the hosts share their history with these films, how obsession can differ in movies, common traits, when it works and when it doesn't, and so much more. 

And of course, we wrap it all up with our Starter Kit Question - if you've never seen a professional obsession movie, what would you recommend to start with?
