Hello friends and familiars! The GenreCast is back with more Meta May shenanigans. This week, it's big, it's bombastic... it's Babylon. And we're not alone. Our old friend Caleb Masters, from over at The Cinematropolis and the Cinematic Schematic, joins us to break this one down. Damien Chazelle's follow up to First Man is an epic look back at Hollywood during its transitional period from the late 20s into the 30s. Somewhat divisive upon its release, the film has amassed a strong cult following. We evaluate what Babylon brings to the table, as well as dive deep into analysis on the themes and tropes running rampant throughout. So, grab your guy, your gal, or your pal and join us as we analyze Babylon.
