We were lucky enough to attend an early screening of Past Lives at the Melbourne International Film Festival (or MIFF if you're so inclined), and of course we had to invite Andy Lau himself back on the show to breakdown the film. The movie spans decades, focusing on two childhood friends reunited after 20 years. And this being Celine Song's directorial debut, we were very impressed with many aspects of the storytelling and cinematography. For a film which runs a little over 90 minutes, there's a lot to analyse in its characters and performances, and we're excited to do just that. Definitely check out the film if you can when it releases in Australia on August 31st. But then in perhaps our longest and most dysfunctional Question of the Week segment, we share a bunch of thoughts from ourselves and listener(s) on the current state of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Has the whole MCU craze gone down the toilet? Or is there still hope for the future?
