On the thirty-first episode of the Cinematic Odyssey, Tristen and Max dive into one of the best international films of recent memory with Ryusuke Hamaguchi and Japan's Drive My Car. The two spend a lot of time poring over the deeply layered script and the double and triple meanings behind every word spoken, Max gives a rundown on Uncle Vanya and Russian theatre, and Tristen defends the inaction of the main character. While it may be a slow drama, it remains absolutely captivating and spellbinding, drawing audiences in deep and not letting go. The emotional punches are many and Tristen and Max try to break down how symbolic the text actually is. This film is highly recommended by both Tristen and Max.
