DEFEND THIS MOVIE #8: DRIVE MY CAR

Secret Movie Club Team members Connor Lloyd Crews and Daniel Ott agree on a lot of things… but NOT Ryusuke Hamaguchi’s Drive My Car, one of last year’s most lauded films! Daniel shares his opinion with the critics that it is a beautiful meditation on grief and art. Connor thinks it is long, boring and pretentious. Will these two knuckleheads ever see eye to eye on anything again? Or will this descend into a mutual therapy session that has little to do with the film and much more to do with their personal lives? Only one way to find out! And in the intro, SMC programmer and founder Craig Hammill eulogizes the recently deceased Jean-Luc Godard.
