That Makes Them Us (Eternals)

In the beginning... before the six singularities and the dawn of creation, came the CELESTIALS. And, this week, TK is joined by return-guest, teacher and theologian Daniel, to discuss the big ideas of Chloe Zhao's ETERNALS. We analyze how each character grapples with the questions "Who am I?" and "Why am I here?" and discuss the movie's approach to and commentary on storytelling and mythmaking. We also share our favorite scenes and picks for superlatives such as "Best Costume" and "Best Use of Music."
