Monica O My Darling and Qala - Style as Substance? | Upcoming Netflix Releases #068

In this episode, Dhruv and Sanjeet discuss the filmmaking excesses of two recent Hindi features currently streaming on Netflix - Vasan Bala's "Monica O My Darling" and Anvita Dutt's "Qala." They talk about the merits of stylization to cover up for a lack of "new" substance and its potential limitations. Also features an extended pre-discussion about soon-to-be-released high-profile Netflix releases - "Glass Onion," "White Noise," "Guillermo del Toro's Pinnochio," and "Bardo" - that we plan to cover in detail sometime later this month/early next year!
