ROMANCE: In the Mood for Love / Ready Player One
It’s the most nervous Macintosh has ever been as we discuss one of his all-time favorite foreign films...
Hello! and welcome to another episode of Macintosh and Maud Haven’t Seen What?! This week Macintosh transports Maud to 1960’s Hong Kong for a timeless film that redefines what a screen romance can be. Though he is on pins and needles hoping this movie holds up as well as when he saw it in high school... Enjoy this review of Wong Kar Wai’s 2000 classic In the Mood for Love!
Then, after the break, we saw Ready Player One. Maud enjoyed it as standard popcorn fare. Mac? Well...he might have some bigger opinions on the matter...
