About this episode

The episode discusses the film 'Bugonia', its performances, and its comparison to the original South Korean film.

We are joined by Dawson to talk about "Bugonia", Yorgos Lanthimos's English-language remake of the 2003 South Korean film "Save the Green Planet!" by Jang Joon-hwan. Starring Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons, Aidan Delbis, Stavros Halkias, and Alicia Silverstone, we discuss the muddled message of the film from a Marxist perspective, the outstanding performances by everyone involved and Ward lets everyone else know how it compares to the original.
