## Resource

While it may not have won Best Picture or Best Actress at the most recent Academy Awards, Bugonia was not only one of the best films of the last year but also one of the most thought-provoking. Featuring Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, the film is a character study as well as being a musing on the state of the world and the way humans have left it. Professor of Media and Communications Dr. David Perlmutter joins the show to talk all about the wild film.
