I love this. Y’all should do Marketa Lazarova at some point, it’s similar to Andrei Rublev in a lot of ways.

You guys are my favorite road companions. Whenever I switch back to your podcast after listening to others, I’m immediately struck by how absolutely pleasant it is to hear each of your voices, thoughts and delightful humor on these great films. The conversations strike the perfect balance of chill and yet ever so deep. Thank you! Keep them coming!
