<p>A milestone episode for <i>Reel 21</i> and the first one in video.</p><p><br />Joachim Trier’s <i>The Worst Person in the World</i> may begin as a deceptively simple coming-of-age story, but it unfolds into something much richer, a deeply felt meditation on identity, relationships and the uncertainty of choosing a life.</p><p><br />In this inaugural video episode, Nathan revisits the film for a second time and finds it even more resonant on rewatch, exploring Julie’s (Renate Reinsve) search for purpose, the emotional pull of the film’s central relationships and the tension it captures between planning your future and surrendering to life’s unpredictability. He also reflects on the film’s inventive chapter structure, its memorable visual flourishes and why this quietly powerful drama marked Joachim Trier as one of contemporary cinema’s most exciting voices.<br /></p><p>And fittingly, a film about transitions and new chapters becomes the launch point for one of this podcast’s own.</p><p><br />Up next: Steven Spielberg’s <i>Minority Report</i>.</p><p></p><p>Chapters</p><ul><li>00:00 Introduction</li><li>06:44 Exploring Relationships and Choices</li></ul>

Top TV Shows of 2025
<p>Yes, it’s February… but we finally made it happen. Nathan is joined by returning guest Mark Blitch to count down their Top TV Shows of 2025, from prestige heavy-hitters to pure comfort-watch chaos.</p><p>Along the way, they compare notes on what held up (and what fell off), talk legacy seasons (The Bear, The White Lotus), debate slow-burn patience tests (Pluribus), celebrate the beautifully unhinged brilliance of The Rehearsal and share a few curveballs.</p><p>Plus: honorable mentions, a few “what were they thinking?” disappointments and the shows they wish more people were watching.</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://moviesarelife.substack.com/subscribe">Subscribe to our Substack! </a></p>
