   #7 Everything Everywhere All At Once with Amisha

   In this episode of HOLD MY DVD, we're going to talk about Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022). I'm joined by Amisha (@madebyamisha (https://www.instagram.com/madebyamisha/)), who is an artist, writer, and host of the Here Goes Everything Podcast (@heregoeseverythingpod (https://www.instagram.com/heregoeseverythingpod/)). Everything Everywhere All At Once is a genre-bending sci-fi, comedy, and family drama written and directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert (collectively known as Daniels). The cast includes Michelle Yeoh, Stephanie Hsu, Ke Huy Quan, Jenny Slate, Harry Shum Jr., James Hong, and Jamie Lee Curtis. The New York Times called the film a "swirl of genre anarchy" with elements of surreal comedy, science fiction, fantasy, martial arts films, and animation. The film has received near-universal acclaim for its portrayal of philosophical concepts such as existentialism, nihilism, and absurdism, as well as other themes including generational trauma, ADHD, and Asian-American identity. Currently, Everything Everywhere All At Once is not available on any major streaming platform in India. So, hit me up if you need an alternative.
