The whims of seas and skies are fickle and unfathomable, but this week Amanda and Wade are going to try and fathom them anyway in this discussion about the Criterion classic, Local Hero. The two discuss the mixture of comedy and philosophical depth that this movie manages to weave together, the hilarious - if misguided - ministrations of the film's insult psychologist, and the complex, melancholic joys of travel. Plus, there's some murderous mermaids! How fun. Push play and enjoy!
