Four Favorites with Flynn Slicker: Wong Kar-wai, Weerasethakul, Sing Street and lost love

We are Boonsong and Flynn Slicker is our Monkey Ghost. Letterboxd’s elusive social media manager joins hosts Gemma and Slim from the seaside for a deep chat about her four favorite films: Wong Kar-wai’s Fallen Angels, Apichatpong Weerasethakul’s Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives, John Carney’s Sing Street and René Liu’s Us And Them. We celebrate siblings and hot people, commiserate about how hard it is to be alive, calculate how long Raphina and Cosmo would have taken to get to Wales in that tiny boat, normalize hanging out with ghosts and marvel at the genius of running other people’s businesses at night. Plus! Read Flynn’s Q&A with John Carney on Journal.
