A difficult movie, but a fascinating one, Josh and I fall on totally different ends of the spectrum of opinions on the film which makes for a great conversation. Puzzle pieces include A Star Is Born, We Need To Talk About Kevin, mother! and Dogville.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAs always, SPOILER ALERT for Vox Lux (and any other movies we discussed)! https://www.voxluxmovie.com/ (https://www.voxluxmovie.com/) \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThis episode will be followed up later this week with a second conversation about the movie! So stay tuned for more Vox Lux.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nJosh Bell is a film critic whose work has been seen in the Las Vegas Weekly, Film Racket and more.
