Seeking a Friend for the End of the World — August 2017

August 31, 2017

Luke, Tito and Will discuss "Seeking a Friend for the End of the World." The 2012 dramedy was written and directed by Lorene Scafaria, who wrote "Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist," and stars Steve Carrell and Keira Knightley. They compare this moving picture to The Lobster and Her, the two latest discussions, and talk about how this one fell short. How important is character development to a compelling narrative, and how can plot devices take away from that narrative?

For the month of September, Luke recommends "Circle on Netflix." The 2015 thriller should not be confused with "The Circle," which came out this year and stars Tom Hanks and Emma Watson.
