Judgement Day: T2 VS Cinema
T2 vs Nostalgia w/ Caroline Debevec
This week Holiday season is here and my friend Caroline and I talk about all those nostalgic feels. Be it the rose tinted nostalgia of older generations, the bizarre misfired nostalgia in a punk rock passion project, and an old melancholic stand-by. I get to talk to T2 with my friend who watched the film for the very first time this week. How does the film hold up sans a nostalgic glow?

His new album, along with The Soldiers of Love, is called "Friends In High Places" and comes out this June. If you've never sat down with his discography before what are you even doing?

A.S. Hamrah is one of the most important voices in film criticism today and the subjects we're tackling are things that have been weighing on my mind heavily this past year.
