For Now We See
Episode #34 - Soul and Black Narcissus
Show Notes

Happy New Year! We start by talking about what we watched over Christmas, before highlighting our best films of 2020 and a little bit of news.

Then we review Black Narcissus, the BBC's latest spooky Betwixtmas three-part drama. We talk about cliched nuns, and the tension between the individual and the community.

We also review Pixar's Soul  (Disney+), wondering why a secular age still tells afterlife stories, and whether life is just what you make it.
