- [ENG] The Poor Storytelling of Poor Things (2023) | Review - Ep. 78We enter Yorgos Lanthimos unique world of "Poor Things" to discuss the flaws and strengths of this film.

Today we discuss the wonderful "The Holdovers", a film we think deserves to be watched and rewatched during the winter holidays. Despite the cold setting, there's a warmth to the film that is felt in the 70s texture of the images and also through the empathetic portrayal of these flawed characters.

Hoje vamos à Finlândia para falarmos sobre "The Match Factory Girl" de Aki Kaurismäki. É um filme curto e executado de forma simples e sardónica, e ficámos especialmente impressionados pelo desenrolar narrativo inesperado na ponta final.
