In addition, we talk a lot for the what we watched segment including a psychologically complex body horror drama called Swallow, the recently acclaimed</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Portrait of a Lady on Fire</span></em> <span style="font-weight: 400;">as well a brief foray into disaster films of the late 90s!
