FilmspottingAbout this episode
For their fourth film together, Yorgos Lanthimos and Emma Stone get weird and go bald in BUGONIA with Jesse Plemons as Stone’s conspiracy-obsessed kidnapper. Adam and Josh discuss, along with reviews of Lynne Ramsay’s DIE MY LOVE starring Jennifer Lawrence, Kelly Reichardt’s THE MASTERMIND with Josh O’Connor, and film-of-the-year candidate IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT, the latest from Jafar Panahi.
