We begin this week's Voice Film Club podcast with a strange story about Giles Corey, who famously said, "More weight!" as stones were laid upon him during his witch trial. The end of the year is sort of like that for film critics, who are pressed upon with all the Very Important Movies of the Year. Your hosts Alan Scherstuhl, Stephanie Zacharek, and Amy Nicholson run down many of the movies coming out soon, including:

- Annie - Leviathan - Mr. Turner - The Interview - Big Eyes - Unbroken - Selma - American Sniper - Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb - Winter Sleep - Into the Woods - The Gambler

Oh! We have an email address now: Send jokes, complaints, poems, or comments to filmpod@villagevoice.com
