Elle and Chris take a deep dive to swim with Brendan Fraser in The Whale, a movie about the final days of a dying, morbidly obese man. Aside from the Oscar-winning performance of Brendan Fraser, the greatest achievement of The Whale is in extracting an uplifting story from the bleakest of premises. AND CHRIS SCREWED UP! Everything he said about difficulties with casting comes from a story about Michelle Yeoh, not Hong Chau.
