I Watch More Movies Than You

Wes Anderson is more than his aesthetic, and Asteroid City is more than a beautiful postcard. This film begs this question though, is there more to life? Then, Celine Song's Past Lives! 'Past Lives' is a Korean force of a movie, an emotional tour de force that you will never forget, but you have to watch! Asteroid City and Past Lives movie reviews and deep dives, join us!
What if there's a whole new universe waiting to be discovered - a universe created by the enigmatic Wes Anderson? Get ready to get lost in this episode as we navigate the tightly-woven visual tapestry of Anderson's 'Asteroid City', decoding the intricate relationships of its characters and the complexities of a play within a movie within life. Listen in as we engage in a hopefully thought-provoking debate on the auteur that is Wes Anderson, and marvel at the performances Jason Schwartzman, Scarlett Johansson, Tom Hanks, Steve Carell, Liev Schreiber, and so many more *cough, Barbie, cough.*
But our cinematic journey doesn't stop there. We venture into the emotional depths of Celine Song's 'Past Lives', as we examine its powerful portrayal of love, relationships, and the ordinary. Hear our analysis of the film's Korean cultural influences, its portrayal of a complex love triangle, and how it subtly avoids clichéd narratives. Join our discussion on the profound differences in loves, romantic and otherwise, and the amazing Korean concept In-Yun. Also, Teo Yoo gives one of the best performances from a leading man, maybe ever. Do not miss this film.
Life is a series of choices, but what about the life we don't choose - the 'ghost ship life'? We share our personal reflections on this concept and how it has influenced our own lives. We wrap up our conversation by expressing our admiration for the transformative power of movies and how they transport us to a different world. Don't miss this episode - it's a celebration of cinema and an exploration of life's intriguing possibilities- fate?
Your 'what ifs' build a life on their own, but you can only view it from the shore. And these two films explore both sides of that coin, please enjoy them and then listen to this episode- might be my favorite one yet. Remember, feel a movie before you attempt to understand it.
