Show Notes

Jen and Sarah from Movies and Us join Nicole Barlow and Ryan Pak to talk about Kogonada's 2017 directorial debut, Columbus. The film is intimate and captures smaller moments. Hammock's gorgeous ambient score is the perfect compliment to the visuals. Kogonada would follow up Columbus with 2021's After Yang and he would direct episodes of Disney Plus' Star Wars: Acoylte series.
