Welcome to Waxing the Porpoise, the podcast that dives deep into the unexplored depths of cinema and occasionally the unexplained.
This week G-Baby and the Usual Suspect Steve embark on a journey into the heart of darkness (and light) with a discussion centered around Fearless from 1993 starring Jeff Bridges and Rosie Perez - a film that delves deep into the complexities of grief and trauma, fear and the fragile nature of human existence.
Join us as we discuss the motivations of the main characters, reflect on the existential themes presented throughout, go on a quick side quest to touch on gentrification, the impending storm of cash-grab sequels namely Twisters, and last but not least annoint Shannon Sharpe as our newest patron saint of the porpoise.
The porpoises, midnight companions and keen observers, grapple with the the lack of depth and connection with our characters is this enigmatic meditation on life and death salvaged only in part thanks to Rosie Perez's poignant portrayal of grief as she shines as a beacon of light in an otherwise murky narrative.
Twisters better mention The Extreme.
Let's wax this new lease on life porpoise.
