Summary
When every day of your life is exactly the same, how can you possibly find meaning? This is the very serious question posed by the very silly comedy Palm Springs, starring Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti as two people trapped in a seemingly endless time loop. The film packs a lot into 90s minutes, allowing Don and Chuck to unpack such topics as sharing of yourself, why change is necessary for anything to have meaning, why our pasts might or might not be important, and how the mundanity of a time loop movie reflects the way many people feel about their own lives. Oh, and Hank Mardukas. Also, Chuck gets to talk about how no time loop movie will ever measure up to Groundhog Day. Like, ever. Music by Nathan Terry nterrymusic.com
