Paul Schrader's Third Act

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit yasha.substack.comIn this bonus ep for subscribers we lie flat in bed late at night on the edge of sleep as Evgenia talks about seeing Paul Schrader present his latest film — Oh, Canada — at the Woodstock Film Festival. We also discuss the upscale boomers of the Hudson Valley, Yasha’s anti-rabbi TikTok optimization, Jewish identity being forced on Jews whether they want it or not, how Lars von Trier is a Jewish soul accidentally put into an aryan body…but mostly Evgenia talks about Paul Schrader, his approach to filmmaking, his discussion about how Wall Street a******s took over Hollywood, and his advice to anyone who’s thinking about getting into the movie business: Don’t. If you can find anything else that brings you a modicum of happiness, do that, not movies.Sweet dreams.Want to know more about movies?* LA dystopia * Catching up* Describing reality* Polanski and Wiseau* Crimes of the Future
