Would you look at that...It's Tuesday again!

This week, we're discussing 2015's The Lure. Set in 1980s Warsaw, Poland, the film follows two mermaid sisters, named Golden and Silver, who are recruited into a nightclub. What starts off as exciting and exotic turns into a haunting tale of identity and survival.

We paired The Lure with The Prophecy Rosé from the South of France. With notes of cherry, raspberry, and white peach, it's bright and playful on the first sip. Some would say it's beautiful, sharp, and a little dangerous...just like the film itself.

In today’s episode, we’re unpacking Twinless, the 2025 dramedy that transforms grief, identity crises, awkward humor, and emotional chaos into something unexpectedly tender and deeply relatable.

Darkly funny and quietly devastating, the film explores the impossible task of redefining yourself after losing your built-in best friend, balancing absurd comedy with raw vulnerability as it peels back layers of memory, longing, and the lies we tell to ourselves and others.
All of this punctuated by perfectly unhinged moments that somehow take us from heartbreak to fetishes and random Friends quotes, but somehow…we make it work!

We paired the film with the 2019 Eudes Etna Rosso - a volcanic red (yes, red!) bursting with bright fruit, smokey notes, and a hint of ash.
Born on Mount Etna, its depth, tension, and fingerprint-triangle label echo the film’s themes of identity and connection, leaving a lasting impression with every sip.
A wine so enticing that Patrick couldn’t wait for the episode to start…some research just has to happen ahead of schedule.

This week, we're diving into Terrence Malick's 2011 film, The Tree of Life. Starring Brad Pitt, Jessica Chastain, and Sean Penn, this movie centers on a family in Waco, Texas, viewed through the eyes of their eldest son, Jack. It's a journey through the loss of innocence, the struggle between his parents' conflicting views, and the complexities of growing up.

To balance the film's heavy themes, we've paired it with Fre Alcohol-Removed Chardonnay. This refreshing white wine offers notes of creamy apple and crisp citrus that provide a bright contrast to the film's intensity. We chose a non-alcoholic option to mirror the central theme of innocence, offer a light, clean palate cleanser for a truly deep cinematic experience.
