Episode description

This week's episode is on a more obscure title this week, that has languished on many of your watch lists on Netflix for years. 

Written and directed by Ana Lily Amirpour, a very unique filmmaker. We detail her meetings wiht both Keanu Reeves and Jim Carey, which are wholly unlike any other we've ever heard of. 

The film stars Suki Waterhouse as the incompletely cannibalized protagonist, Arlen. She is joined onscreen by Jason Momoa of Justice League and Game of Thrones fame. Fun thought, which IP do fans hate more after that last season of GoT? Superman's creepy CGI lip looks pretty appealing right now, eh?

We discuss the visual storytelling of the film, which is wholly without dialogue for the opening act. There is an inarguable style to the film, but does it suite the narrative? We answer those questions and many more. 

This week's "Hidden Track" is A New Chapter, with their song Broken Castle from their new EP Myself // Nevermore. IG: https://www.instagram.com/anewchapter_official/ ; FB: https://www.facebook.com/anewchapterat/; SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/artist/43hSMoKYh7KWaRLup4LaG6
