I'll be honest: I listen to "The Bulwark Goes to Hollywood" every week, but I didn't feel any particular urgency to listen to the Kelli Jones/costume design episode. However, I was driving, and the episode started playing (it was next in my Spotify feed, or however these things work; I'm old), and I'm here to endorse what Sonny says: It's a great episode! Even if you haven't yet seen "The Beekeeper." (I have not, although the episode reminded me that "Beekeeper" is a David Ayer film, and I've liked some of his earlier work. Maybe I should try to forget "Suicide Squad" and give Ayer another chance.)
David Ayer's "Fury" is a solid, tense-as-hell war picture, and although he didn't direct it, there's also "Training Day" (for which he wrote the screenplay), if you're wanting to check out some of his better efforts.
"Fury" is one of the movies I was thinking of when I mentioned that I've liked some of his earlier work. (There was a time when I reviewed movies, and "Fury" was one that I reviewed positively.) I also have a soft spot for "End of Watch," although if memory serves the language was a bit much for me.

I also hated SUICIDE SQUAD, but supposedly he has a better, darker cut of the film. Release the Ayer Cut, I say! (Glad you enjoyed the episode!)
