About this listen
Bugonia, directed by Yorgos Lanthimos and starring Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons is now streaming, so we watch it! As a sci-fi dark-reality remake, it’s not common fare for Lanthimos, but the social commentary and unsettling conspiratorial tone are very, very familiar.
Did you wonder if Stone's Michelle was actually an alien? Who was the real protagonist? And did the metaphors land well enough to earn Bugonia an Academy Award? We’re trying our best to get the Bugonia ending explained along with the complicated and surreal moments along the way as we, like the characters, navigate collective fear, capitalism, the concept of impending doom, bees, and other hallmarks of modern anxiety reflected in this movie.
If you love strange movies, auteur directors, and deep-dive film conversations, this episode is for you.
You can watch us now at youtube.com/@introskippers or on Spotify. If you prefer audio-only, we’ve got you covered right where you are too.
