Both beginnings and endings of relationships can make for great movies; both MALCOM & MARIE and BEFORE SUNRISE mine that territory. Mansi Tiwari joins me to talk about whether we think these movies (will) stand the test of time.

In MALCOLM & MARIE, the titular couple has a fight to end all fights over the course of a night. But why does it feel more like two twitter threads have become sentient rather than two actual people barrelling towards a reckoning?

BEFORE SUNRISE shows us, what life was like before the pandemic, when we could still meet random strangers in a foreign city. Mansi and I talk about the authenticity of the main characters and how your own age influences how you relate to them.
