In this episode, we dive deep into Eddington (2025), Ari Aster’s latest and most provocative film to date—a 149-minute neo-Western black comedy set against the backdrop of a fictional mayoral standoff in pandemic-era New Mexico. Starring Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal, Emma Stone, and Austin Butler, Eddington offers more than just political satire; it’s a Rorschach test of a movie—fragmented, unstable, and deeply unsettling.
