Past Lives is an Emotional Gut Punch

In Celine Song's directorial debut, she brings us a powerhouse film in Past Lives (2023). 

 

The film revolves around a decades spanning relationship that brings about the conversation of fate, what-ifs, and the paths that we chose.

 

It's a love story, it's an immigration story, it's a story about worlds colliding. 

 

Brittany Reyes and I go on an hour-long discussion on why this film is so poignant with its characters, its story, and everything that's said in the silence. 

***SPOILERS*** (Obviously) 

Enjoy and thanks for listening!
