#75: “31 Candles” (2025) & notes on ruminating

from Cinematic Breadcrumbs · host Elise Hernke

This week your host Elise Hernke saw the movie “31 Candles” (2025) at the Laemmle Royal theater. Starring as well as being written and directed by Jonah Feingold, this movie brings us a holiday rom-com that has the wit and neuroses of a Nora Ephron film. In this episode, we talk about the movie and the theme of “ruminating” (like the Lily Allen song) in films like those of Albert Brooks or John Cusack. Follow podcast on Instagram @ingloriousbaguettes. 💌
