In this new episode, Sanjeet & Dhruv discuss Ari Aster's new nightmarish surreal comedy, "Beau is Afraid." We juggle between praising his filmmaking and critiquing his indebtedness to the many inspirations -- ranging from Powell & Pressburger's "A Matter of Life and Death" to Guy Maddin's "Cowards Bend The Knees" -- that overpower that very filmmaking.
Dhruv remains annoyed (as usual) by the film's never-ending runtime, and Sanjeet mentions the word interesting more than 6 times throughout the recording.
Listen to the full episode for a spoiler-filled discussion about the interesting-ness of Ari Aster's therapy session that we paid money to see in the CINEMA.
