Wes Anderson's new comedy special is out now. He says he has a 'moral dilemma' over whether his jokes crossed the line. The comedian also talks about being trans, and how it feels to be treated with contempt by some people. Allen: "You feel a ton of ampathy for people who are ... treated as if they don't believe what they're saying"
David and Tamler dive into Ingmar Bergman’s 1966 masterpiece Persona, a film about two (?) women, Elisabet, a famous stage actress who has stopped speaking, and Alma the chatty young nurse assigned to care for her at an island cottage. What happens when the roles we play as parents, spouses, friends, and colleagues start to feel like dishonest performances, an endless series of desperate lies? Can we escape to an inner sanctum of truth and authenticity? Or is that putting on another mask, playing yet another part, telling a different set of lies? We offer some tentative interpretations of this rich and baffling film. Get that boy a normal sized sheet!
Plus we share some thoughts about the Chappelle special…
