Justin and Chuck dive into Sean Baker’s Anora, tracing its journey from fairytale romance to dark, slapstick chaos. Along the way, they explore the wild Vegas marriage plot, the tonal whiplash between comedy and despair, and Baker’s distinctive filmmaking style. The conversation highlights Annie and Vanya’s tragicomic turns, as well as Igor’s unsettling loyalty. It all builds to a bittersweet finale that pulls the comedy back down to earth.
