It's On The List

#34: Bumology

Gerry Hartman and Sammy Holte Episode 34

Love, loss, jealousy, coping, beauty, wide-lenses... we're talking about all of the important things in life today, discussing Harmony Korine's The Beach Bum (2019) and Terrence Malick's Song to Song (2017). We discuss the montage-heavy mode of editing/narrative construction in both films, the intuitive nature of Malick's filmmaking, and how these films depict grief, forgiveness, and the human condition. Contains spoilers for both films.
