DIRECTOR'S CUT: Therapist Reacts to STARDUST
What makes love lasting? How do you know if it's actually love?
Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright look at the different relationships in Stardust to contrast infatuation and love. Tristan's relationship with Victoria is all about one-sided infatuation, him trying to prove himself worthy of her affection while she looks down on him (simp culture!). But Tristan's relationship with Yvaine is all about both of them growing as individuals, getting to know and care for each other, and reciprocal love and affection. We also get the single most important hair transformation for Charlie Cox, and possibly Robert De Niro's greatest performance. This movie is sheer delight!

The Tom Hardy bit aged like a fine wine with some reports. 😅😂
There are actually montages in a couple of Starkid and Tin Can Bros productions, ecpessialy Spies Are Forever, if you ever want to do a musical reaction. :)
so glad you guys did this movie, literally my favorite movie of all time! :))
I am so happy you guys did this movie!! I found it a few years ago and it’s easily turned into one of my all-time favorites. I completely agree with you both that the movie deserves way more than it was ever given.
Superman vs daredevil, the movie!
I love this movie so much. It's gotta be on my top 10 of all time somewhere.
