The Farewell (2019) with Pete Byrnes
You Need To See This! - A podcast by Bri & Cozi - Mondays
Categories:
2019 was a busy year for excellent movies - what with your Parasites, Portrait of a Lady on Fires, Jojo Rabbits - but do not let that excuse Cozi or YOU from seeing Lulu Wang’s masterful sad-com The Farewell! Equal parts familiar returning-to-your-hometown story and a one-of-a-kind glimpse into traditional Chinese family dynamics, this film will make you laugh, then cry, and before you know it, you'll be calling your congressional representative demanding “Justice for Awkwafina and Zhao Shuzhen!!” when you discover neither were nominated for an Oscar. Tune in, won't you, stupid child?
Also discussed in this episode: Rush Hour, Jason Segel, and The Before Trilogy.
Cozi watched Call Me By Your Name after being convinced by Lucé and Pete on our April 6th episode.
