The Batman (directed by Matt Reeves) - Overwhelming Spectacle, Frustrating Franchise

This was a tough one. Is there a lot to pick off the bone that is The Power of the Dog? Why do we need a revelation in our films? What we get into in this chat is: why does certain stuff resonate? What makes a film force us to lean in? We don't even get into Capitalism (too much) - but we gotta mention Austin saw this at the Sydney Film Festival. Enjoy!
