On this week’s episode of Not A Bomb, the guys do a complete 180 from last week and discuss one of the most thought-provoking love story films - The Fountain. Coming six years after Requiem for a Dream, Aronofsky effortlessly creates a heartbreaking romance between Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz. This film is too philosophical for a two-person podcast, so the guys welcome Sammy from the GGTMC back to the show. Listen as the gang spoils the heck out of this film and discusses the deep, philosophical subtext within each frame. Don’t worry! This episode isn’t just an academic deliberation on man’s mortality. They also derail the conversation with thoughts on white tree sap, intimate sex scenes in bathtubs that cause water damage to hardwood floors, “naturalistic upper male nudity”, and so much more.Timestamps: Intro - (1:35), Box Office Response and Critical Response - (2:52), People Involved - (11:21), Production and Development - (32:15), Commerical Break - (48:06), The Fountain Discussion - (50:05), Is it a Bomb? - (98:50), and Outro - (107:00)The Fountain is directed by Darren Aronofsky and stars Hugh Jackson Rachel Weisz, and Ellen Burstyn.If you want to leave feedback or suggest a movie bomb, please drop us a line at NotABombPod@gmail.com or Contact Us - here.
