Ep. 159: Sundance 2023 Four with Jessica Kiang: Past Lives, Passages, Notes on Hybrid
Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw. I’m your host, Nicolas Rapold. The Sundance Film Festival has officially wound down but I still have good movies to share with you! This time I joined forces with critic Jessica Kiang, who was reviewing films for Variety at the festival. Our discussion spans two episodes. Part One begins with notes on the hybrid nature of this edition, then moves on to Celine Song’s wonderful debut feature Past Lives and Ira Sachs’s latest drama, the finely observed love triangle Passages.
