37: Alpha Dog & Bully (with Nick Laskin)

TW: This episode does contain discussion of rape, abuse and domestic violence. This week, we're taking a look back at a pair of divisive teen true crime dramas: the sweaty, lurid Florida-set thriller "Bully" from provocateur Larry Clark and Nick Cassavetes' San Fernando Valley-based drama "Alpha Dog." Both films were met with their own set of controversy upon release in the 2000s and both featured strong ensembles of up and coming teen actors at the time, ranging from Brad Renfro and Michael Pitt to Anton Yelchin and the big screen debut of Justin Timberlake. We're also joined by our frequent Rotten Rewind third and fellow San Fernando Valley native, Nick Laskin, to discuss these tragic tales of murder, revenge and white-boy posturing. "Alpha Dog" is streaming on STARZ, while "Bully" is streaming on Hulu and Amazon Prime.
