Episode 29: Primer

 

What would you do if you could travel through time? Win the lottery? Invest in the stock market or electromagnetic reduction? On this episode of Nightcaps at the Theater we take a look at the “timeless” sci-fi classic, 2004’s Primer. Shane Carruth’s incredible filmmaking debut is brought to you (from a different grainier/rougher audio time period, it will all make sense, post listen) by all of those willing to probe their minds, and really think amidst intersecting timelines. Do you have your earpieces in? Will you be able to avoid your past selves to avoid a paradox? How could a Weeble enter and leave from side A? Who brings a gun to an ex’s party? All will be answered and more questions will emerge. Make sure to keep knocking them back, so you too can understand the unlimited, myriad, mysteries of time and space! (*Sound Issues may be a side effect of time travel.)
