Episode 535: "Last of the Sea Women" and "The Outrun"
Manage episode 444705153 series 83148
This week Evan and Dave kick things off with THE LAST OF THE SEA WOMEN (3:07) (after Dave forgets to do his own intro at the top; whoops), a documentary about the haenyeo, a declining and aging community of women in Jeju, South Korea, who dive for seafood as a job - or, as Evan more accurately describes it, a calling - while dealing with climate change, over-fishing, and crucially, wastewater from the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Then Megan joins Evan and Dave for THE OUTRUN (17:17), director Nora Fingscheidt’s adaptation of Amy Liptrot’s memoir (with a screenplay by Liptrot, the director, and Daisy Lewis). Saoirse Ronan stars as Nora, an alcoholic whose struggle to stay sober takes her from rehab, to an outpatient facility, to her family farm, to one of the most remote isles in Scotland’s Orkney Islands. We were all fascinated by it, but how much did we all like it? Over on Patreon, we talk about the ROSEMARY’S BABY prequel APARTMENT 7A.
