New Year’s Resolutions - Should We Even Bother?

A Bit of Culture regulars, Julian Yap and Dhanya Nair join Kam to usher in the new year and of course, inevitably, the topic of resolutions come up. In between that, Julian speaks about the casting choices for period pieces and how they should avoid casting faces that know what an iPhone is. Speaking of movies, Kam reminisces about Mary Poppins and how some films are catered and targeted for children exclusively, without thinking about the adults that are watching them as well. Tune in to start 2024 the right way!
