Summary

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he and his guest go deep into the subject of mortality via cinema, and this week he is joined by the Chinese-Swedish comedian raised in India - it’s the all global EVELYN MOK! A lovely and entertaining look at this whole life, death and afterlife ride with Evelyn, who has some very considered and entertaining perspectives on the whole ordeal along with some really interesting film picks, which are partly informed by her unique upbringing. Recorded during Brett and Evelyn’s respective runs in Edinburgh, this is a bubbly but also cool and calm sit down with the two, who go in on all things comedy, existence, and cinema, including some valuable and informative insights into the way the afterlife is handled in Chinese tradition. Excellent stuff, enjoy episode 22 with Evelyn! ––––– ––––– ––––– LINKS FOR EPISODE 22: • EVELYN MOK on TWITTER! • EVELYN on THE INTERNET! • EVELYN on INSTAGRAM! • BRETT GOLDSTEIN on TWITTER! • BRETT GOLDSTEIN on INSTAGRAM! • 'SUPERBOB' - Brett's 2015 feature film! • 'CORNERBOYS' with BRETT & SCROOBIUS PIP! • DISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on FACEBOOK • DISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on INSTAGRAM Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/filmstobeburiedwith.
