#199 - The Ballad of Buster Scruggs and Subverting Our Own Vanity

Reel World Theology

On this episode of the Reel World Theology podcast: That's right, we're going to squeeze in one more 2018 movie before completely moving on to 2019. It's ok though because we get to talk about one of our favorite movies from 2018, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. The latest Coen Brothers film ranks among their best yet. With such an unusual format, what is it about this anthology that strikes a chord with us? We go through each story and talk about what we think the Coens are exploring about death, life, and humanity.
