I Love Boosters (2026) might be the most important movie of the year — and in this episode of Beyond the Frame, Joe, Ryan, and Heidi dig into why Boots Riley's wild, color-saturated, satirical fever dream is doing what almost no other filmmaker is brave enough to do: speak truth to power and make you laugh while it lands.

Starring Keke Palmer, Taylour Paige, Naomi Ackie, Poppy Liu, Eiza González, LaKeith Stanfield, Will Poulter, Don Cheadle, and Demi Moore, I Love Boosters is the second feature from writer-director Boots Riley (Sorry to Bother You) — a $20 million Neon production that has zero sacred cows and a whole lot to say. We unpack the satire on every level: luxury culture and how badly people want to feel "cool," celebrity worship and the bloviating of perceived geniuses, exploitation of workers, factory labor, and so much more. This episode is a conversation about why satire matters right now — and why filmmakers like Boots Riley, voices like Stephen Colbert, and shows like South Park exist as essential checks on power.

Remarkably Bright Creatures (2026) is more than a Sally Field movie about an octopus — it's a quiet meditation on work, purpose, and the perspective shift that changes everything. In this episode of Beyond the Frame, we break down the film's biggest hidden lesson: what if work is actually a gift?

Sally Field stars as Tova, an elderly widow working night shifts at a local aquarium, where an unlikely bond with Marcellus the octopus (voiced by Alfred Molina) sets her — and a lost young drifter named Cameron (Lewis Pullman) — on a path neither of them expected. Based on the New York Times bestselling novel by Shelby Van Pelt and directed by Olivia Newman.

If you've ever felt stuck in autopilot, dreaded a Monday, or wondered whether your job actually matters — this one's for you.

Spoiler warning: We discuss the full film, including the ending.
