This week we watched the 2008 comedy drama, In Bruges, for the second time! This is our first time revisiting a movie we've watched already for this podcast, so it was really fun to see how our opinions had changed after a second viewing. The second time around, most of us enjoyed the movie a lot more. Definitely worth a second viewing, and this episode of the podcast also raised a lot more of the philosophical debates regarding the film. Next week we will be watching Taxi Driver (directed by Martin Scorsese), so be sure to watch it this week in preparation. It's currently available on Netflix.
