What is the relationship between the movies we love and the stories we live? This is a question we explore with on this podcast. But in this episode, we examine the pitfalls of our own premise through one of the most acclaimed films of all time: CINEMA PARADISO. Nick leads us through this intimate installment of our "I Am the Protagonist" series. Nestled within this so-called love letter to the movies is a cautionary tale about the dangers of projecting our worldviews onto others. We also wrestle with the iconic ending, which might be more tragic than you think.
