Summary

Special thanks to Karolina Ljungström, who decided to have us take on one of her favorite films, "Quills". "Quills" was released in 2000, and was directed by Phillip Kaufman, and starred Geoffrey Rush, Kate Winslet, Joaquin Phoenix, Michael Caine, and Stephen Moyer. It is a period piece loosely set around the last years of the Marquis de Sade as he languishes in a French asylum for the insane. The film has Jim and A.Ron pondering the role of art in society, how the life choices and artist makes influences how we feel about art, and how madness and genius are related. Thanks again, Karolina, we hope you enjoy your podcast! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
