Do not take your phone off Airplane mode because we're heading to Paris to discuss Olivier Assayas' Personal Shopper (2016). Helping us sift through this fascinating, dense film is Trace's better half (and frequent returning guest) Ari Drew!
Join us as we heap all the praise on Kristen Stewart before diving into all things supernatural (and technology!), linking the film to the recent wave of liminal horror films.
Plus: Joe "raps" (yes, really), fade-outs galore, the necessity of on-screen nudity, silly conversations about gorillas and one of the scariest scenes to come out of the 2010s.
