Back to the Frame Rate

On this episode hosts Nathan Suher, Brianna Butterworth, Ellie Escobar and Sam Coale analyze and discuss director Joe Carnahan's film 'The Grey' starring Liam Neeson. They dive deep into the themes of mortality, belief in God versus atheism/agnosticism, and rugged survivalism. An argument arises over the effectiveness of the movie's exploration of masculinity; while some hosts connect with the characters and the existential philosophy of the film, others feel less emotionally impacted. The decisions to add The Grey to their vault for future generations or purge it are mixed, making for a lively discussion.
