Join us as we discuss Ari Aster's personal work Beau is Afraid, the film's epic nature in structure, anxieties and mommy issues, staggered and deeply connected storytelling, a defense of real art, wild production design and phenomenal performances by Joaquin Phoenix, the corruption of art by modernity (a la post-structuralism), and comedy where you're the punchline but you're still laughing. We hope you enjoy.
