This is a brunch pre-oscers mini podcast. It contains spoilers, but we can't imagine you care if you haven't seen the movie and you're afraid of spoilers. There's no way you would logically seek out a podcast about the movie. Hey, we're going to begin. Let us do it. Past Lives. Written and directed by Celine's song in her feature directorial debut is what I'm going to call a gourmet rom-com about two childhood friends who re-enter

one another's lives as adults. It has a runtime of one hour and 46 minutes, a rotten tomato

score of 96 with an audience score of 84, and is tied with Maestro for the worst betting odds

to win best picture at minus 10,000.

That hurts a lot because I'll be honest, I got into this movie at minus 6,500.

Anyway, Pass Lives is nominated for two Academy Awards, Best Picture, and Best Original Screenplay.

Hi, Pete.

Hello, David. I will tell you what.

This movie may have the longest odds for Best Picture, but it is my favorite, my absolute

favorite movie of the year. I fucking loved this movie.

Yeah, we reviewed this movie. I couldn't find any of my notes or any,

it's as though this movie just came and vanished. And like, that's kind of how it existed when

it came out, where it came out, you saw it, you were like, yo, see this movie. Got to see it.

I saw it. We discussed it. We both liked it. I remember you loved it. I really liked it.

And there was maybe like a three day conversation about this movie. And then until it was nominated for best picture, like crickets.

Yeah. But it's like one of those ones that kind of slipped through the cracks a little bit.

But to the, but like sort of in the great way where

when somebody starts talking about it or mentions that they just saw it or like tweets that

they're going to watch it, just something inside of you sparks and you're like,

fuck yes, another person that I get to talk to this movie, talk to about this movie.

And this movie is one of those movies that you know

everybody is going to love it and if you don't love it something is wrong with you oh no i know
