Award-winning filmmaker Ari Aster (Hereditary, Midsommar, Beau Is Afraid) joins Popcorn Podcast for an in-depth conversation about his new Western, Eddington, starring Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal and Emma Stone. Aster talks making audiences queasy, why he returned to his New Mexico roots and how 'Firework' by Katy Perry plays a key role in one of the unsettling film’s most unhinged moments.
