A Matter of Life and Death
Published 2 years, 7 months ago
Description
We continue Romance Month with one of the great fantasy romance films that also explores ideas of fate and, strangely, neuroscience: A Matter of Life and Death. Someone's Favorite Productions' Dr. Will Dodson and The Projection Booth's Mike White join the episode to talk David Niven, a young Kim Hunter, and the escalator to Heaven.
Starring Niven and Hunter as star-crossed lovers, Niven cheats death by accident and falls in love with Hunter only to find out that the other side doesn't take kindly to making mistakes, regardless of whose fault it is. What follows is a genuine look at what it means to love, and what it also means to be British.
