Beau Is Afraid (2023) - a podcast by Marc and Brooke

What's up Dream Warriors! After a little break we are finally back and feeling refreshed. We thought, because we had such a long break we'd come back to tackle one of the most divisive movies of this year so far, Beau Is Afraid. In all honesty though, we weren't ready. Not even a little bit. Seriously, someone please explain to us what the actual fuck this movie is?! 

Beau Is Afraid is Ari Aster's third full length movie and easily his most ambitious. It has some shining moments and always, Joaquin Phoenix is amazing but the message Ari was trying to convey was lost in a series of chaotic scenes and fuckery. Some people love this movie, some people hate it. We're somewhere in the middle just scratching our heads like a couple of monkeys...

Next week we're back to talk about another new-ish movie with Bones And All. Hopefully that one will be easier on our brains.
