Summary

This week we cover Ari Aster's "Eddinton". Released in 2025 and starring Pedro Pascal, Joaquin Phoenix, Luke Grimes, Emma Stone, Austin Butler, Deirdre O'Connel and Michael Ward, and set in Aster's hometown during 2020 at the height of COVID-19. We discuss how timing is everything, Phoenix might not be a great person in real life, and how this movie stands out as a director trying to say something without saying anything at all.
