Palm Springs and The Meaning of Life
Channel: Mouthfilm
Date: 11/01/2023

In this video, we explore how the philosophy of Albert Camus helps illustrate the meaning of life in the 2020 film, Palm Springs. (Yes, we’re aware of Groundhog Day and that we could’ve done a similar analysis of Ramis’ work).

Mouthfilm is a collective that makes video essays deconstructing all types of films and their intersection with culture at large.
