My Dinner With Andre vs. Before Sunrise

from Highbrow Lowbrow · host Highbrow Lowbrow

Welcome to Highbrow Lowbrow. The show where our podcast hosts Steve Powell and Dan Slattery pit high art against low culture. In this episode, we celebrate films which are all talk. Steve looks at My Dinner With Andre, a film in which Wallace Shawn and Andre Gregory discuss the big issues in life while enjoying a delicious meal in a New York restaurant. Dan’s pick is Before Sunrise. Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy take a stroll around Vienna and fall in love along the way. Are these films veritable classics, or just a whole lot of verbiage? As always, dear listener, the final decision is up to you. Mind the spoilers. Enjoy the show.
