| 0:30.1 | It's very difficult to keep the line between the past and the present. |
| 0:33.9 | You believe that someone out of the past can enter and take possession of a living being? |
| 0:40.6 | We may be true with the past, but the past is not through with us. |
| 0:48.0 | Welcome back to the next picture show, a movie the week podcast devoted to a classic film on the way it shaped our thoughts on a recent release. |
| 1:11.7 | I'm Scott Tobias here again with Keith Phipps and Genevieve Koski. No Tasha Robinson on this pairing, but we're happy to have freelance critic Jordan Hoffman back. Jordan, how was your week? Oh, man, I had a great week. I mean, I was a glow because we had that great conversation about Rachel getting married. |
| 1:16.3 | I just carried you right through. Really love that movie. I was so happy to revisit it. What else happened this week? I had rained one day. My wife made a whole meal out of asparagus and then I |
| 1:22.3 | forgot. And then the next day morning, I went to relieve myself and I'm like, oh my God, somebody lit a tire on fire. What the hell is going on? But it was just me. Does that happen anybody else? In Chicago, it's only after we drink Malort that we have that experience. I don't even know what Malort is. I've been to Chicago, but I don't know what Malort is. Next time you're here, we'll find some for you. It is a really foul tasting thing that some people develop a taste for. Not me.

You know, but I do, you know, listen, And Chicago all right. I'll tell you, you got your hot dogs with the, with the celery salt and pickle in there. We do. You got the Italian beef sandwich, especially when it's dunked in the grease, and it's slopping all over the place. It's good stuff. It's good stuff. We like it. Yeah. A big fan of that town. Thank you. So that's how my week's been. Thanks for asking. |
| 2:21.8 | Okay. So, well, on last week's show, which we recorded a week ago, we talked about Rachel getting married, Jonathan Demi's drama about an addict who goes straight from rehab to her sister's wedding. |
| 2:31.8 | The intense awkwardness of feeling like the black sheep in the |
| 2:34.6 | family also carries through this week's film, Emma Seligman's Shiva Baby. Here, the screwed up |
| 2:39.9 | young person is Danielle, played by Rachel Sonat, who is also testing the patience and goodwill of her |
| 2:45.0 | loved ones as she gets dragged to the Shiva of a family friend. Her parents, played by Polly Draper and |
| 2:50.4 | Fred Melamed, are frustrated by her |
| 2:52.5 | directionless life, typified by the vague feminist major that she's chosen for herself. When Danielle |
| 2:58.6 | arrives at the Shiva, however, there are much bigger landmines. One is her ex-girlfriend Maya, |
| 3:03.9 | played by Molly Gordon, who has many cutting barbs at the ready. The other is Max, played by |
