It may be the start of 2024, but in our new episode we are discussing the highest grossing movie of 2023 - BARBIE - and Greta Gerwig, its history-making director and co-writer. For this episode we went a bit old school PFW and brought back some of our favorite segments: analyzing the scenes we loved, citing our favorite quotes and insights from Greta Gerwig in “what she said”, picking what won the movie for us, predicting Barbie’s future in our “crystal ball”, and sharing our “takeaways”. 

If you are one of the few people who didn’t see this in the theaters this summer, Barbie is now streaming on Max! Greta and her husband Noah Baumbach wrote a smart, truly original, and thought-provoking script. And of course the set, costumes, music and entire world created on screen is weirdly wonderful. We loved it and our conversation about it - check it out wherever you get your podcasts. 

(P.s. We both re-listened to our episode on Greta Gerwig’s directorial debut, Ladybird, in preparation for this and if we do say so ourselves, it’s fantastic! Definitely worth revisiting if you missed in the first time around.)
