Episode 13: Silver Linings Podcast Movies with Chris

Disclaimer: Thomas and I recorded this episode about 2 months before the day I uploaded it because of its less than stellar sound quality. No idea what I was thinking recording this in a parking garage in my car and I apologize for that. After throwing it into DaVinci to de-noise it a bit (which barely did anything) I decided to post it anyways because I think this episode does have good things to offer. With that being said, I really hope you can try to look past the bad sound and try to find the good bits in the episode. Maybe this was all unintentionally on theme :/
My time with Thomas sometimes feels like it's getting more scarce over the years. Living across the country from each other has been tough at times but we still find lots similarities in our experiences. In this episode we talk about how sometimes movies really are the silver lining to a life often filled with more struggle and loneliness than we'd expect. We give some thoughts on recent popular films like Barbie, Oppenheimer, Killers of the Flower Moon, and what it can be like watching movies under the influence. We discuss the ethics of a film like May December, and the touchy themes it explores. And finally we talk about everyone's favorite actress, Jennifer Lawrence, and a few films she was in. This of course eventually leads us to talk about one of my all time favorites, Silver Linings Playbook. We hope you not only enjoy the episode but also find the time to enjoy more movies. Take care,
